WebSphere Commerce Enterprise

Updating extended terms of a contract or account

Use WebSphere Commerce Accelerator to change the values of terms in contracts or accounts.

Before you begin

  1. Ensure that the term properties that you want to change are set with changeable=true in the TCConfigurationExt.xml file.
    
<TCDefinition type="SurChargeTC" existing="false"
usage="Contract" display="true">
        <Display displayNameKey="SurChargeTC"
descriptionKey="SurChargeTCDescription"/>
        <Property name="waiveSurCharge" column="INTEGERFIELD1"
required="true" changeable="true">
                <Display displayNameKey="waiveSurCharge"
descriptionKey="waiveSurChargeDescription"/>
        </Property>
        <Property name="surChargeAmount" column="FLOATFIELD1"
required="false" changeable="true">
                <Display displayNameKey="surChargeAmount"
descriptionKey="surChargeAmountDescription"/>
        </Property>
</TCDefinition>
  2. Ensure that the CHANGEABLE column of the TERMCOND table for the extended term is set to 1. If the value for the column is not set to 1, the properties values are disabled and cannot be changed.
