Define the Buyer Experience for a Cloned Cart

If your storefront allows a buyer to manage carts from the My Account page, you can now more explicitly control what happens when a buyer clones an existing cart. Continue to provide a trusted storefront experience by efficiently and intuitively supporting your buyers' cart workflows.

Where: This change applies to B2B Commerce for Visualforce Winter ’21 (version 4.13) in Lightning Experience and Salesforce Classic in Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, and Developer editions.

Why: In previous versions of B2B Commerce for Visualforce, the My Carts section of the My Account page included a Clone button, which created a cart from an existing cart. However, no options were available for configuring the buyer experience after a buyer clicked the Clone button.

You can now specify the following options for the buyer's experience after they click the Clone button:

• Whether to price the new cart automatically after creating it.
• Whether the new cart becomes active after creating it:
  • When the new cart is inactive, the buyer remains on the My Carts section of the My Account page.
  • When the new cart is active, the buyer immediately navigates to the Shopping Cart page.

How: After you upgrade the available global data, the Cart storefront configuration module includes the following new settings:

Configuration	API Name	Default Value	Usage
Cloned Cart Page Behavior	c.clonedcartpage	1	The new cart is inactive. The buyer remains on the My Carts section of the My Account page.
Cloned Cart Pricing Behavior	c.clonedcartpricing	1	The new cart is priced automatically after it's created.
