URL Parameters for Adding Items to the Cart
NetSuite supports two different URLs for adding items to the shopping cart:
-
/app/site/backend/additemtocart.nl – Use this URL to create add to cart buttons for items in an external catalog site or in a website made of hosted HTML pages.
-
/app/site/backend/intl/additemtocart.nl – Use this URL in a web store associated with a OneWorld account. Create add to cart buttons that set multiple parameters to be processed in one request, like subsidiary and currency, for example.
All the parameters listed in the tables below are used in either the POST or GET action that adds an item to the shopping cart.
For example, you can use the multi parameter to create a URL for distribution to customers in a promotional email. This URL will add multiple items to the shopping cart when a customer clicks the link to visit your web store.
For information about adding multiple items to the shopping cart, see Adding Multiple Items to the Shopping Cart.

However, when you try to place the order with such out of stock items in your shopping cart, an error message is displayed and you will not be able to place the order successfully.
