I am trying to setup a UCommerce poc for a company with a fairly complex ecommerce system. I am just starting to know the capabilities of Ucommerce in providing solutions to complex buisness process. I would like to know if there is way to use the UCommerce Classes/ Views / Models/ Macros on a totally newly custome created products, order, shipping schemas with just minor changes to the current UCommerce project. Any input is greatly appreciated.
In my experience, you can almost always extend the uCommerce product to fit the business demands of most clients, using the ProductDefinition (similar to the Umbraco DocType)and similar features.
Could you perhaps describe some of the features you are having a hard time realizing in uCommerce?
Thanks for your feedback. I have noticed that I didnt specified my problem by example. We would like Ucommerce to function the way it is with the only difference being that when its trying to do GetProducts SaveProducts ....CRUD operations (Front shop and Backoffice) we want it to call to a difference Product table. This product table will be in a different database. The reason being that we want to have a dedicated Inventory Database to which other systems also talk.
In other words, what I want is to change the connection string to the inventory database when the user
Would it be an option(techical and money wise) to make a integration between the inventory DB and the uCommerce PIM (Product information management)?
The uCommerce PIM is very good for storing product data, and web related enrichment of base ERP data.
It's not that hard to keep some predefined parameters in sync with a 3th party system, using the uCommerce API and a scheduled task.
Use uCommerce on a different Database Schema
