That answer now have a problem, as this new carts feature makes adding products to an order/cart in the backoffice an option. In that case, there's definitely no session available in that case. So the ProductAdapter is now missing access to the order, to be able to get e.g. a member id or something else to get the correct price.
Yea, good point. You obviously won't have the member during cart editing, but the products you add all come from the ProductAdapter so it might just have to be that you extend the product adapter to return multiple products one with normal prices and one with member prices, then it's just up to the store owner to add the product / price they intend.
That would mean 500 products per product would have to be returned. One for each B2B customer. They all have individual prices.
We have 2 e-commerce solutions against Navision that works like this.
I mean, the cart editor only supports searching for products to minimize the number returned, but I'm open to suggestions on how to make this better.
The editable carts feature is the first release so tries to handle the most common scenario, but I know people are extending Vendr in different ways so there is potentially more that needs to be done to give the right extension points.
See carts in backoffice
Hi,
Is it correct that there is nowhere to see my carts in the Commerce backoffice? I would like to check an ongoing carts data, but where/how to do that?
Cheers /Rune
Hi Rune,
It's correct that this is not supported in the current release.
However, this feature is in active development right now so should be in the next minor release.
Many thanks
Matt
I knew you had it in the pipeline. :)
Fantastic software by the way. Better than uCommerce BY MILES!
Have a great day. /Rune
Haha, thanks Rune.
Really glad you are enjoying using Vendr.
We are aiming to get this feature out by the end of February the latest, so keep your eyes peeled. 👀

Just to let you know, Vendr 2.1.0 is out now with editable carts 👍
Nicely made feature!
I have one question though. You answered a question about prices and the user session here: https://our.umbraco.com/packages/website-utilities/vendr/vendr-support/103628-same-product-difference-prices

I think access to the Cart itself in the adapter would be extremely helpful for a huge amount of scenarios.
The developer would of cause have the responsibility of adding whatever information he needs to the order before adding anything to the cart.
