Second B2C Web Shop

[Former Member]

Hello,

My Project currently has B2B and B2C running. Our business group would like to have a second B2C shop for special customers to use. This second B2C site would have a different catalog from the primary B2C site, but all the other functionality would remain the same. I am new to the configuration side of things, and am not sure how to accomplish this.

Can someone recommend the proper approach to accomplish this, and possibly the documentation to accomplish this?

Thanks!

Hi Steven,

You could create a new product catalog and assign it the new B2C webshop from the 'Shop Admin'. On the Java side, you would have to create the new B2C webshop which is a copy of the existing B2C webshop.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Ashok.

I am just making it clear what Ashok has already told you to do.

You can actually define a new shop to achieve this. Shop takes the Product catalog and catalog variant as inputs and these two inputs in the shop define which product catalog is displayed in the B2C application. There is no need for another copy of this application at all.

Each shop has its own shop id. This shop id has to be passed as an URL parameter to the B2C application.

http://<server>:<port>/myb2c/init.do?shop=NEWSHOP

Thank you for the replies.

I created a new shop in shop admin with a new catalog, and created a new application configuration to use this new shop. Using the scenario parameter in the URL, I was able to access the new shop configuration.

Hi,

As you said you have developed both B2C and B2B application i have a query.I created B2C previously for my application.It is working fine.Now when i am trying to create B2B with in same workspace of NWDS it is throwing error.We need to make any changes in config file or the port no of both B2C and B2B should be different?

Thanks and Regards,
