As with the Service Desk SharePoint System, there are better platforms to have a Shopping Cart on which are free and Open Source, however again, the business required this be set up in SharePoint, which was a challenge.
The below Shopping Cart was created using OOTB SharePoint foundation functionality.
Dummy text and Products/Costs have been used for this demo.
The custom requirement here was that orders were only done quarterly, and items needed to be produced in a table for easy ordering.
 |
| Home Page – Highlights are only visible to admins, Cart is not visible if empty. |
 |
| Swanndri products entered for testing functionality. Different views limit items returned |
 |
| Search with filter options |
 |
| Created Generic Display Form for Products. Color and Size dropdown get populated from text in view with JavaScript splitting on spaces. Images are clickable to switch main image using JavaScript in Script Editor |
 |
| Shopping Cart View. Actions go to different forms that trigger WorkFlow on edit. |
 |
| Proceed to Checkout takes end user to this view |
 |
| Create Order Triggers Workflow |
 |
| Empty Cart |
 |
| Admin View |
 |
| SSRS Report Shows which products to order and how many of each size. |
What Makes this Work
The system is set up using a number of different lists and 4 different SharePoint 2010 workflows.
The product item page is setup using CSS and JavaScript.
Main SharePoint Lists
– Staff Members: No UPS in Foundation
– Catalogue: Products to add to cart
– My Items: Cart items
– Shopping Cart: 1 item, totals Etc.
– Order List: Once a cart has been processed, and order is created
– OrderReport: When Items are added/removed from cart items are added/removed here from cart fro report ordering purpose.
– Error Log: If the user is not set up in the system.
– Notify: Email Options
