ScheduledContractDeploy URL
Invoked by the WebSphere Commerce scheduler to deploy a contract. The Contract Import command imports a contract into the WebSphere Commerce database from an XML file. The schedule is created by the ContractDeploy URL. ScheduledContractDeployCmd provides the user to deploy the contract to activity status at the expected scheduled time.
URL structure
- http:// host_name/path/
- The fully qualified name of the WebSphere Commerce Server and the configuration path.
Parameter values
- setBrowsableAll
- Required: A Boolean value which specifies whether the browsable product set information should be generated for all contracts.
- contractId
- Required: The contract ID for the contract being deployed, as found in the CONTRACT database table.
- targetStoreId
- Required: The ID of the store to which to deploy the contract.
- setBrowsable
- A Boolean value which specifies whether the browsable product set information should be generated for the specified contract.
- URL
- Required: The URL to be called when the command completes successfully.
Example
The following example deploys contractID 260369 to store 10011 and then points to the contract display page:
https://myhostname/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ScheduledContractDeploy? contractId=260369&targetStoreId=10011&URL=StoreCatalogDisplay?storeId=512&catalogId=512
Behavior
- This URL deploys a specified contract to a store, and generates optimization data for the contract's terms and conditions. A contract passes various states from the time it is created until the time it is deleted. The contract can be in draft or approved state before it is deployed. When it is deployed successfully it changes its state to active and will allow purchases against the contract.
- The setBrowsable is set to true:
- The process inclusion product sets finds the term and condition with type ProductSetTC and subtype ProductSetTCInclusion or ProductSetTCCustomInclusion. It creates the browsable product sets by using method processCatalogBrowsingProducSets of DeployProductSetFilterTCCmdImpl.
- The process price finds the term and condition with type PriceTC, and gets all the inclusion product sets corresponding to the term and condition. It creates the browsable product sets by using method processCatalogBrowsingProductSets of DeployProductsSetFilterTCCmdImpl.
Exception conditions
- _ERR_CONTRACT_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND will be thrown if a contract with the specified contract ID is not found in the WebSphere Commerce database.
- _ERR_WRONG_CONTRACT_STATE will be thrown if the contract is in the DeploymentInProgress or DeploymentFailed state.
- Some exceptions might be logged in the SystemOut.log file. For example:
