ConvertPhysicalStoreToFulfillmentCenter

This flag controls whether or not the identifier passed in through _wcf.search.store parameter
is a store location identifier and should be converted into a fulfillment center identifier to be used
with the inventory search index. For example, set this option to "true" when used with non-ATP inventory
model, or set this option to "false" when used with DOM inventory model.

<_config:property name="ConvertPhysicalStoreToFulfillmentCenter" value="false" />
</_config:configgrouping>
