Publishing Reseller Service Plan in Online Store

Generally, the process of purchasing a hosting subscription in the online store consists of three steps: selecting the hosting plan, selecting the domain, and checkout. To make a reseller service plan displayed in the online store, it is necessary to include the sales category, in which the reseller plan is included, in the respective hosting screen. The up-sale sales category should be included in the domain screen of the same purchase scenario.

If you want to sell the reseller plan with the existing purchase scenario, include its sales category in the respective hosting screen (based on the HOSTING template), include up-sale sales category in the respective domain screen (based on the DOMAINSEXTENSION template). Otherwise, create new screens and create separate purchase scenarios based on them.

For more information on configuring the online store screens and purchase scenarios, refer to the CloudBlue Commerce Billing Online StoreGuide.

To make a reseller service plan displayed in the online store:

  1. Make sure the service plan has the Published checkbox selected.
  2. Go to Products > Online Store > Screens tab.
  3. Select the reseller hosting screen by clicking on the respective link in the Screen ID or in the Title field. The properties of the selected screen appear on the screen.
  4. Click Parameters. The list of screen parameters appears on the screen.
  5. Select the CATEGORY_LIST_ID parameter by clicking on the respective link in the Parameter Name column. The selected parameter properties appear on the screen.
  6. Click Add Categories. The list of categories available appears on the screen.
  7. Select the respective checkbox of the reseller sales category.
  8. Click Add to add the selected category to the screen.
  9. To apply all the changes, go to Products > Online Store and click Synchronize Now.

The same procedure is to be performed for the up-sale domain sales category (screen based on the DOMAINSEXTENSION template).
