Workflows and activities
Describes how you can work with validation services and processors, in replacement of workflows and activities that were made obsolete by Optimizely Customized Commerce version 14.
In Optimizely Customized Commerce, activity flows were used for validation and calculating totals in the checkout process. An activity flow is a container of steps or activities that can be executed. When executing an activity flow, a list of configured activities and if/else conditions are executed.
Activities can be replaced by the following validation service and processors:
- OrderValidationService
- IPurchaseOrderProcessor
- IPaymentPlanProcessor
- IShipmentProcessor
- IPlacedPriceProcessor
- IInventoryProcessor
- IPaymentProcessor
- Order total calculators
These components mentioned here are available in the EPiServer.Commerce.Order and EPiServer.Commerce.Order.Calculator namespaces.
Activity flows
- CartValidateActivityFlow
Use OrderValidationService.ValidateOrder() instead. - CartPrepareActivityFlow
Use OrderValidationService.ValidateOrder() and OrderGroupExtensions.CalculateTotals() instead. - CartCheckoutActivityFlow
Use OrderValidationService.ValidateOrder() and OrderGroupExtensions.CalculateTotals() instead.
Example Commerce 14 and higher:
CartBuilder ch = new CartBuilder();
foreach (VariationContent entry in entries)
{
ch.AddEntry(entry, quantity, false);
}
ch.Cart.ProviderId = "FrontEnd";
OrderValidationService.ValidateOrder(ch.Cart);
ch.Cart.AcceptChanges();
Example Commerce 10-13:
CartBuilder ch = new CartBuilder();
foreach (VariationContent entry in entries)
{
ch.AddEntry(entry, quantity, false);
}
ch.Cart.ProviderId = "FrontEnd";
ch.RunWorkflow(OrderGroupWorkflowManager.CartValidateWorkflowName);
ch.Cart.AcceptChanges();
