1) On clicking the “ECOMMERCE LINK” button the “Generate or Send Your Ecommerce Links” page is displayed.
2) Clicking on the “Ecommerce Page” dropdown will display all Ecommerce Pages that are available to select.
Notes:
Ecommerce Page Setup with a “Link Type” set to “One link to send to multiple customers” (Generic links) will not be selectable from here. The link will only be available in the Ecommerce Page Setup record.
Only Ecommerce Pages relevent to where the Ecommerce Link was called from will be displayed, for example, clicking the “ECOMMERCE LINK” button on a Mandate will only display records setup as “I will provide a mandate ID”.
3) Click on the Ecommerce Page that is required and the relevant fields are displayed
Each link generation page may look different, based on the setup of the Ecommerce Page that is selected, as there can be different mandatory fields and override options. For example, in the above image the “Payment Amount” field is mandatory, but it's value can be overriden. Another example, in the above image, is the “Start Date” for the Schedule - it is not a mandatory field, and the system will automatically calculate the Start Date, but it can be manually entered if needed.
Notes for “Return URL“
The link must start with "https://" and be no longer than 2048 characters.
The link cannot contain a parameter called “page”, as this is always appended to the url. The “page” parameter contains the
Ecommerce page record id used to signup.
The link cannot contain a parameter called “payment”, as this will be appended to the url if the link is created from an existing record. The “payment” parameter contains the payment link record id used to signup.
Note: In the above example the “Ecommerce Link” was called from a Customer Account record and therefore the “Customer Account ID”, that this Ecommerce Page needs, is automatically known and populated in the field.
If the “Ecommerce Link” was called from the Ecommerce Page, or the Quick Actions menu, the Customer Account ID would be unknown and therefore would need to be provided manually.
4) Once the form has been checked, and changed as needed, click the “GENERATE LINK” button to generate, and display, the link details.
The URL can be copied and sent to your customer to use.
The Link can be found again under the Ecommerce Links Tab for the Ecommerce Page Record.
