SCA Models, Collections, and Services

SuiteCommerce Advanced (SCA) works with data stored in NetSuite. During a shopping session, for example, SCA may perform the following data-related actions:

• Read data from NetSuite records. For example, when a user views details about an item, this information is retrieved from the NetSuite item record.

• Update data based on user input. For example, when a user places an order, information about the order is stored in a NetSuite order record.

• Receive new data based on user input. For example, when a user adds a new address to the Address Book, the NetSuite address record is updated.

To retrieve, create, and update data, SCA processes the data on the frontend and backend as follows:

• Frontend: defines how data is presented to the user and how the user inputs data. This data is handled by frontend models and collections.

• Backend: defines how SCA transfers data to and from NetSuite. This transfer is handled by services and backend models.
