Setting up delivery date functions without ERP confirmation

Use this procedure if your ERP cannot send confirmed delivery dates to Rhythm Commerce.

  1. Set up the user's role:
    1. In the Business Center, select Application Setup > Roles.
    2. Click the name of the role, or create a new role.
    3. Clear the Get Confirmed Delivery Date check box.
    4. If users can request different delivery dates for each line or delivery group in the order, select the Order Line Req Del Date check box. If users can request one delivery date for the entire order, clear the check box.
    5. Click Save.
    6. Assign the role to users.
  2. In Rhythm Portal, configure the Order Checkout widget:
    1. In the web shop, sign in as a site editor.
    2. Navigate to the Checkout page.
    3. On the Order Checkout widget, select Options > Settings.
    4. Specify this information:
      Show Recalculate Button
      Click No. Because the ERP cannot send confirmed delivery dates to Rhythm Commerce, this button does not affect the checkout process.

      This setting is not applicable.

      To display the date selector in step 1, select Yes. If you select Yes, the second step in the checkout is omitted. To display the date selector in step 2, select No.
