Deployment guidelines for cash registers for Norway (legacy)

  • Article

Warning

This sample fiscal integration functionality doesn't take advantage of the fiscal integration framework and will be deprecated in later updates. You should instead use the functionality that is based on the fiscal integration framework.

This article is a deployment guide that shows how to enable the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Commerce localization for Norway. The localization consists of several extensions of Commerce components. For example, the extensions let you print custom fields on receipts, register additional audit events, sales transactions, and payment transactions in Point of Sale (POS), digitally sign sales transactions, and print X and Z reports in local formats. For more information about the localization for Norway, see Cash register functionality for Norway.

This sample is part of the Retail software development kit (SDK). For information about the SDK, see the Retail software development kit (SDK) architecture.

This sample consists of extensions for the Commerce runtime (CRT), Retail Server, and POS. To run this sample, you must modify and build the CRT, Retail Server, and POS projects. We recommend that you use an unmodified Retail SDK to make the changes that are described in this article. We also recommend that you use a source control system, such as Microsoft Visual Studio Online (VSO), where no files have been changed yet.

Note

In Commerce 10.0.8 and above, Retail Server is known as Commerce Scale Unit. Because this article applies to multiple previous versions of the app, Retail Server is used throughout the article.

Some steps in the procedures in this article differ, depending on the version of Commerce that you're using. For more information, see What's new or changed in Dynamics 365 Retail.

Using certificate profiles in Commerce channels

In Commerce versions 10.0.15 and later, you can use the User-defined certificate profiles for retail stores feature that supports failover to offline when Key Vault or Commerce headquarters aren't available. The feature extends the Manage secrets for retail channels feature.

To apply this functionality in the CRT extension, follow these steps.

  1. Create a new CRT extension project (C# class library project type). Use the sample templates from the Retail software development kit (SDK) (RetailSDK\SampleExtensions\CommerceRuntime).

  2. Add custom handler for CertificateSignatureServiceRequest in the SequentialSignatureRegister project.

  3. To read a secret call, GetUserDefinedSecretCertificateServiceRequest using a constructor with profileId parameter. That will start the functionality working with settings from Certificate profiles. Based on the settings, the certificate will be retrieved either from Azure Key Vault or local machine storage.

    GetUserDefinedSecretCertificateServiceRequest getUserDefinedSecretCertificateServiceRequest = new GetUserDefinedSecretCertificateServiceRequest(profileId: "ProfileId", secretName: null, thumbprint: null, expirationInterval: null);
GetUserDefinedSecretCertificateServiceResponse getUserDefinedSecretCertificateServiceResponse = request.RequestContext.Execute<GetUserDefinedSecretCertificateServiceResponse>(getUserDefinedSecretCertificateServiceRequest);

X509Certificate2 Certificate = getUserDefinedSecretCertificateServiceResponse.Certificate;

  4. When the certificate is retrieved, proceed with data signing.

  5. Build the CRT extension project.

  6. Copy the output class library and paste it into ...\RetailServer\webroot\bin\Ext for manual testing.

  7. In the CommerceRuntime.Ext.config file, update the extension composition section with the custom library information.

The Modern POS extension components

Implement the proxy code for offline mode

This part is equivalent to the Retail Server controller, but it extends the local CRT that is used when the client isn't connected.

  1. In the customization.settings file, change the @(RetailServerLibraryPathForProxyGeneration) section so that it uses the new Retail Server assembly for proxy generation.

  2. Implement the following interface methods in the StoreOperationsManager class. For the first iteration, add the following code:

    public Task<bool> SalesTransactionSignatureServiceIsReady()
{
    throw new NotImplementedException();
}
public Task<FiscalTransaction> GetLastFiscalTransaction(string storeNumber, string terminalId)
{
    throw new NotImplementedException();
}

  3. To regenerate the proxy code, build the Proxies folder from the command line by using the msbuild /t:Rebuild command.

  4. Resolve the Proxies.RetailProxy project dependencies:

    Open RetailSDK\Proxies\RetailProxy\Proxies.RetailProxy.csproj, add the RetailSDK\SampleExtensions\CommerceRuntime\Extensions.SalesTransactionSignatureSample\CommerceRuntime.Extensions.SalesTransactionSignatureSample project to the solution, and add a project reference to the RetailProxy project to reference SalesTransactionSignatureSample.

  5. Adjust the interface methods in the StoreOperationsManager class:

    public Task<bool> SalesTransactionSignatureServiceIsReady()
{
    return Task.Run(() => CommerceRuntimeManager.Runtime.Execute<SalesTransactionSignatureServiceIsReadyResponse>(new SalesTransactionSignatureServiceIsReadyRequest(), null).IsReady);
}
public Task<FiscalTransaction> GetLastFiscalTransaction(string storeNumber, string terminalId)
{
    return Task.Run(() => CommerceRuntimeManager.Runtime.Execute<GetLastFiscalTransactionResponse>(new GetLastFiscalTransactionRequest(), null).FiscalTransaction);
}

  6. Update the dllhost.exe.config file so that the client broker loads the new RetailProxy assembly.

    <add key="RetailProxyAssemblyName" value="Contoso.Commerce.RetailProxy" />
<add key="AdaptorCallerFullTypeName" value="Contoso.Commerce.RetailProxy.Adapters.AdaptorCaller" />
