Applies To: Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3

The shopping cart control in the Retail in Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3 online sample stores supports the collection and display of the items that a customer has selected to buy. A copy of the shopping cart is created when the customer begins the checkout process. The mini shopping cart icon displays the number of items in the shopping cart at the top of most of the store pages and optionally displays a list of items and prices as well as buttons that enable the user to view the full cart contents and start checking out.

When an authenticated customer clicks the Add to cart button for any product, a shopping cart is created in the channel database or the existing cart for the customer is retrieved. For more information about the channel database, see Architecture of the Microsoft Dynamics AX Retail online store.

For an anonymous user, a temporary shopping cart is created. For more information about anonymous users and authentication, see Authenticating users in Retail online sample stores.

From the shopping cart page, customers can do the following:

  • View the items they have selected to buy.

  • Add items, change quantities or remove items from the cart.

The shopping cart control also supports checkout actions when users purchase items.

Shopping Cart

Source code for the shopping cart pages is found in the Storefront.sln solution. This solution is available in the following folder after you install the Retail SDK:

\Retail SDK\Online Channel\Storefront

All shopping cart operations use AJAX-enabled Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) services are used for all shopping cart operations. Shopping cart entities are mapped from the channel database to the controllers for store pages. The data is converted to the storefront view model representation for use by client-side scripts. Web controls, the ShoppingCart web part, and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) support the page display.
