Configuring Order boundaries to prevent unbound exceptions

The Order Management subsystem defines business object values for shopping carts, requisition lists, return merchandise authorizations (RMAs), and order history. The default values are defined in the xml/config/com.ibm.commerce.order/wc-admin-component.xml file. You can change these values to meet your business needs.

Procedure

  1. Open the xml/config/com.ibm.commerce.order/wc-admin-component.xml file.
    The default values are shown in the following code snippet:
    <_config:extendedconfiguration>
      <_config:configgrouping name="ShoppingCartThreshold">
        <_config:property name="size" value="10000" />
        <_config:property name="quantity" value="10000" />
        <_config:property name="defaultPageSize" value="100" />
        <_config:property name="maximumPageSize" value="100" />
      </_config:configgrouping>
      <_config:configgrouping name="RequisitionListThreshold">
        <_config:property name="size" value="10000" />
        <_config:property name="quantity" value="10000" />
      </_config:configgrouping>
      <_config:configgrouping name="RMAThreshold">
        <_config:property name="size" value="2000" />
        <_config:property name="quantity" value="2000" />
      </_config:configgrouping>
      <_config:configgrouping name="OrderHistoryThreshold">
        <_config:property name="defaultPageSize" value="100" />
        <_config:property name="maximumPageSize" value="100" />
      </_config:configgrouping>
      <_config:configgrouping name="RMAHistoryThreshold">
        <_config:property name="defaultPageSize" value="100" />
        <_config:property name="maximumPageSize" value="100" />
      </_config:configgrouping>
    </_config:extendedconfiguration>

    <_config:property name="quantity_C3" value="10000" />

    <_config:property name="quantity_C2" value="1000" />
    <_config:property name="quantity_C3" value="10000" />
