Enable purchasing products

To enable purchasing from the catalog, the following configuration is required:

Product completeness

You can track required tasks related to product configuration in product view's Completeness tab.

Product completeness

This page shows which tasks are finished for the given product, and which are still awaiting completion.

Click the edit button next to an unfinished task to move directly to the screen where you can add the missing information.

Note

By default, the anonymous user does not have permissions to view products. To change this, add the Product/View Policy to the Anonymous Role.

Region and currency

All currencies available in the system must be enabled in the Back Office under Commerce -> Currencies.

Additionally, you must configure currencies valid for specific SiteAccesses in configuration:

            product_catalog:
                currencies:
                    - EUR
                    - GBP
                    - PLN
                regions:
                    - germany
                    - uk
                    - poland

Configuring other regions and currencies

By default, the system always uses the first currency and the first region configured.

To implement a different logic, for example a switcher for preferred currencies and regions, you need to subscribe to Ibexa\Contracts\ProductCatalog\Events\CurrencyResolveEvent and Ibexa\Contracts\ProductCatalog\Events\RegionResolveEvent in your customization.

VAT rates

You set up VAT percentage values corresponding to VAT rates in configuration:
