Enhancements
Introduced Ability to Authenticate User for Confirming Cart/Quote or View Order
- Now end customers will be authenticated before they can confirm Cart/Quote or view Order.
- A new flag called “Authenticate user for confirming cart/quote or view order” has been introduced in Business Rules under ‘General Defaults’ Tab.
- When this flag is checked and if the user sends a link to confirm Cart/Quote or view Order, the end customer will receive it via mail.
- Upon clicking the link the system will display “Transaction Authentication” popup which will accept valid “Email Address” to generate token and background transaction details will be hidden.
- Once the user enters their “Email Address” and clicks on “Generate Token” button, system will validate Email Address with actual Email IDs which were already used on Send tab from BO to send link. If Email ID matches then the system will generate token & send it to this Email ID.
- After entering the token and on clicking “Verify Token” button, system will validate token. If the token is valid then the end customer will be allowed to confirm cart/quote or view order.
- In case the token is invalid, then the system will display an error message “Incorrect Token; Please enter a valid token”
- A new notification called “Authenticate Notifications” has been introduced under “Notifications” menu. This notification will be used to send token via email.
- To access this menu go to BO>>Admin>>Notifications>>Authenticate Notification>>Cart/Quote/Order Authentication Notification.
