Create a static kit

A static kit is a group of products that are ordered as a unit.

To create a static kit:

  1. Open the WebSphere Commerce Accelerator.

  2. From the Merchandise menu, click Find Bundles or Kits.

    Select Products > Find Bundles or Kits.
    The Bundle and Kit Search page displays. If you do not see this menu, then your logon ID does not have the appropriate authority to perform this task. Contact your Site Administrator.

  3. You can leave the search fields empty and click Find. The Bundles and Kits page displays.

  4. Click New and create a new prebuilt kit.

  5. The Site Administrator must update the BASEITEM table as follows:

      1. Find the baseitem_id of the CATENTRY that represents the static kit in the BASEITEM table.

      2. Open a DB2 command window.

      3. Connect to the WebSphere Commerce database.

      4. Run the following command:
        update baseitem set itemtype_id='STKT' where baseitem_id=baseitem_id of the static kit

      1. Run sqlplus where the user/password are the user and password for the WebSphere Commerce database.

      2. Run the following command:
        Select * from baseitem where partnumber='code entered for the static kit'
        The part number is the code that was previously set up for the kit when it was created in step 4. Verify that this is the item that you want to update.

      3. Run the following command:Update baseitem set itemtype=_id='STKT' where part number='code entered for static kit'

      4. Run the following command:
        commit;
