Certain system pipelines and API objects, along with the Gillian cartridge, available in the Salesforce Commerce Cloud community on GitHub, enable you to integrate automated order routing and payment processing capabilities into Salesforce B2C Commerce. You create the business logic that uses the objects.
You can use this functionality to:
ShippingOrdersShippingOrdersWhen an error exists in an import file, the shipping order or the return imports fail. A file is created, using the original file name with a .BAD extension. You can fix the error in the order import, rename the file with the original .xml extension, and then rerun the import. Properties unknown to the import specification (XSD) are not included in the .BAD files; however, custom properties are included.
Select . Track changes made by custom jobs or imports on shipping orders, invoices, or returns by clicking the Shipping Orders, Invoices, or Returns tabs, respectively. The information on these tabs is read-only. The tabs only appear when an order contains a shipping order, invoice, or return.
The GillianJobs pipeline contains CreateShippingOrders,
ImportReturn, and UpdateShippingOrders. You set up
system job schedules to call the GillianJobs pipeline by selecting . Configure the schedules with an Execution Scope of Sites (click
Sites), with scheduled execution from between once every 30 minutes
to once every 2 hours.
Use the following API objects to customize your order management processes:
| API object | Description |
|---|---|
| ShippingOrder | Group of items that are shipped together. The content of a
ShippingOrder is a subset of items of one
dw.order.Shipment, and depends on inventory and custom code
extensions such as warehouse optimization and dropship settings. Due to
ShippingOrder update feeds, certain items of a ShippingOrder can be marked as
shipped, canceled, or warehouse. |
| TrackingInfo | TrackingInfo: contains a tracking#, shipping date, and carrier name, by
default. You can also add custom attributes, for example, a tracking link. You can
now link all shipped items of a ShippingOrder to one or more
tracking details by calling the addTrackingRef method in
ShippingOrderItem. This associates a shipped item with one or more
TrackingInfos. |
| Invoice | Monetary representation of either a ShippingOrder, Return, or Appeasement. It's the base of any payment transaction (capture / refund). |
| ReturnCase | Abstraction of an RMA. Every return without a ReturnCase reference is assigned to a new ReturnCase. |
| Return | Container of items that were returned to the merchant. Depending on custom code implementations, certain actions such as a refund or an even exchange can be done. |
The file naming pattern for the import feeds for shipping order updates is:
{Impex}/src/feeds/shippingorder/shipping_order_update_feed_SiteGenesis_20131101141905769_23.xml
For the return import, the file naming pattern is:
{Impex}/src/feeds/return/return_import_feed_SiteGenesis_20131101141905768_11.xml
Appended to the file name are:
When running a ShippingOrder export, you can define an XML structure of your own. Exports are handled in the sample code of createShippingOrder.ds.
In the Gillian sample script that creates shipping orders, a new shipping order is exported to a file. The export includes shipping order items, such as option and bundle items, in a hierarchical structure, with reference between the parent and child items. A new item type attribute enables you to specify the child or parent type, as follows:
