If desired, customers can purchase DCD products online through your website. In order to make your DCD product available for purchase via your website, the Product Status on the General Setup screen must be "Active", the "Web Enabled Rate" checkbox on the Rates and Pricing screen must be checked for at least one rate code, and you need to set up an associated "Active" e-Business Control.
The e-Business Links section of the task bar on the Product Maintenance screen includes the following screens for configuring DCD products for purchase from your e-Business site:
Currently, Mobile Control has only been implemented for INV, MTG, and FND products. For more information, please see Back Office Configuration Options for Mobile. Additionally, Related Links and Product Questionnaire has only been implemented for MTG products. For more information, please see Defining Meeting Product Related Links and Creating a Meeting Product Questionnaire.
If you delete a DCD file from a product in the back office, the DCD file will still exist on your website, because there is no way to verify that a constituent who had placed an order for the product has downloaded the DCD file. In order to delete the DCD file from your website, you will have to do it manually.
Additionally, if a product has been rated on the web, you can review the comments and ratings via the Product Review screen. For more information, please see Managing DCD Product Reviews.
