Setting Up Shopping Cart Adjustments
The Shopping Cart SmartElement saves the adjustment information in an array
(block of information) of name-value pairs. Of the pair, the name is the name you
give to the adjustment in Drumbeat, and the value represents the actual
adjustment amount. The array is shown in a order summary area. This area
informs shoppers of charges and order information.
The Shopping Cart adjustment is calculated differently depending on the type of
adjustment. If the adjustment is a flat-rate fee or discount, the adjustment is
added or subtracted from the sub-total price. If the adjustment is a percentage, the
adjustment is multiplied to find the adjustment total, and then either added or
subtracted from the sub-total price.
