Adding the new role to the store type mapping

In this lesson, you learn how to create a customized configuration file to map the new usage to store types, and to map the store to the role type.

About this task

There are two main purposes of the customization of this configuration file.
  • To map the new usage to store types: The new usage is represented by externalValue="EXT_ManageSearchTermAssociation". For example, the store types that are mapped with the new usages include B2B, B2C, and the Extended Site Model stores, which means that the new usages can be used with these stores.
  • To map the store to the role types: You need to add the new role, the Search Term Manager role, to the store types configuration file.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to workspace_dir\WC\xml\config
  2. Create a directory that is called com.ibm.commerce.infrastructure-ext.
  3. Create a custom component configuration file and rename it to wc-component.xml.
  4. Map the new usage to the store types.
    1. Open wc-component.xml for editing.
    2. Copy and paste the following code block into the file. 
      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

  5. Add the new role to the store type mapping.
    1. Run the following SQL statement to determine the Search Term Manager role ID:
      Select role_id, name from role;
    2. Copy and paste the following code block, replacing 10001 with the correct role ID of the Search Term Manager.
      <_config:valuemapping externalName="RoleType" internalName="RoleType">
