Extend the profile address

Extend the Commerce Profile System

More details how to extend the Commerce Profile System can be found here.

Configure the Commerce Connect type

Patch the Mercury.Commerce.Customers.config file. Provide the correct type for the class that is extended by patching the type attribute of the CustomerParty element in the commerce.Entities configuration section.

Example

<sitecore>
    <commerce.Entities>
        <CustomerParty>
            <patch:attribute name="type">
                MyOrders.MyCommerceParty, MyOrders</patch:attribute>
        </CustomerParty>
      ...
    </commerce.Entities>
    ...
</sitecore>

Extend the translation of Commerce to Commerce Connect

  1. Create a new pipeline processor that derives from the TranslateCommerceAddressProfileToEntity pipeline processor.

    Example

    namespace MyOrders.Pipelines
{
 public class MyTranslateCommerceAddressProfileToEntity : TranslateCommerceAddressProfileToEntity
 {
     public MyTranslateCommerceAddressProfileToEntity() : base()
     {
     }
     ...
 }

  2. Override the method TranslateToCommercePartyCustomProperties and call base method.

    Example

    protected virtual void TranslateToCommercePartyCustomProperties(Profile origin, MercuryCommerceParty destination)
{
 base.TranslateToCommercePartyCustomProperties(origin, destination);
}

  3. Extend the translation of Commerce to Commerce Connect entity.

    Example

    protected virtual void TranslateToCommercePartyCustomProperties(Profile origin, MercuryCommerceParty destination)
{
 base.TranslateToCommercePartyCustomProperties(origin, destination);

 var myCommerceParty = destination as MyCommerceParty;

 myCommerceParty.POBox = Get<string>(origin, "GeneralInfo.pobox");
}

  4. Patch the Mercury.Commerce.Customers.config file. Replace the Mercury pipeline processor with the extended pipeline processor in the pipeline translate.commerceAddressProfileToEntity configuration.

    Example

    <sitecore>
 <pipelines>
   <translate.commerceAddressProfileToEntity>
     <processor 
         type="Mercury.Account.Sitecore.Pipelines.Customers.TranslateCommerceAddressProfileToEntity, Mercury.Account">
       <patch:delete/>
     </processor>
     <processor 
         type="MyOrders.Pipelines.MyTranslateCommerceAddressProfileToEntity, MyOrders">
     </processor>
   </translate.commerceAddressProfileToEntity>
 ...
</sitecore>

Extend the translation of Commerce Connect to Commerce

  1. Create a new pipeline processor that derives from the TranslateEntityToCommerceAddressProfile pipeline processor.

    Example

    namespace MyOrders.Pipelines
{
 public class MyTranslateEntityToCommerceAddressProfile : TranslateEntityToCommerceAddressProfile
 {
     public MyTranslateEntityToCommerceAddressProfile() : base()
     {
     }
     ...
 }

  2. Override the method TranslateCommerceCustomerPartyCustomProperties and call base method.

    Example

    protected virtual void TranslateCommerceCustomerPartyCustomProperties(MercuryCommerceParty origin, Profile destination)
{
 base.TranslateCommerceCustomerPartyCustomProperties(origin, destination);
}

  3. Extend the translation of Commerce Connect to Commerce.

    Example

    protected virtual void TranslateCommerceCustomerPartyCustomProperties(MercuryCommerceParty origin, Profile destination)
{
 base.TranslateCommerceCustomerPartyCustomProperties(origin, destination);

 var myCommerceParty = origin as MyCommerceParty;

 destination["GeneralInfo.pobox"].Value = origin.POBox;
}

  4. Patch the Mercury.Commerce.Customers.config file. Replace the Mercury pipeline processor with the extended pipeline processor in the pipeline translate.entityToCommerceAddressProfile configuration.

    Example

    <sitecore>
 <pipelines>
   <translate.entityToCommerceAddressProfile>
     <processor 
         type="Mercury.Account.Sitecore.Pipelines.Customers.TranslateEntityToCommerceAddressProfile, Mercury.Account">
       <patch:delete/>
     </processor>
     <processor 
         type="MyOrders.Pipelines.MyTranslateEntityToCommerceAddressProfile, MyOrders">
     </processor>
   </translate.entityToCommerceAddressProfile>
 ...
</sitecore>
