We are looking to migrate a customer website from a bespoke eCommerce solution into uCommerce, and to help with migration of data I'm trying to match up the functionality they have already with what comes out of the box with uCommerce.
An example is tagging products with a country of origin - in their current system they have the a page to create as many tags as they want, then on the product page they assign these tags to a product. If I wanted something similar in uCommerce, is this how I would go about it:
In the Settings -> Definitions -> Data Types page add a new data type called Country of type Enum Multi Select
Below this new data type add all the available countries (currently 8)
In the Settings -> Definitions -> Product Definitions -> My Product Type type, add a new child item called CountryOfOrigin which has a data type of Country. Check the faceted search box
The Faceted search should then index these countries correctly
Repeat above steps for other tags that exist in the existing system (some would be Enum Multi Select and some single Enum Select)
I'm wondering if this approch is best or if there is another possbile option?
