Implementation Notes
- Mnimum version for this feature is 4.31.
- This feature needs Click and Collect enabled on your site.
- Implementation requires consultation with Commerce Vision. Feature can be implemented globally or for specific Roles.
Overview
This feature is aimed at websites that offer some products that have to be shipped, some for pickup only, and others that allow either. With the standard Click and Collect feature, how a customer receives their purchases depends on whether they select 'Delivery/Shipped' or 'Pickup' on the whole order. This prevents the placement of orders that contain some 'ship only' products and some 'pickup only' since only one method can be selected.
With mixed methods enabled, the system will flag any conflicts and allow customers to specify a method at the order line level. The system will process the order with the right method against each product (order line). In a mixed method order, the order confirmation email will contain details and instructions about both delivery and pickup.
Selecting a method at order line level is only offered to the customer if delivery is available for the product.
During Product Maintenance of a product, a specific method can be set. (NOTE - If not set, method defaults to both. Whether a product is shown as available for pickup or delivery/shipped will also depend on stock levels at fulfilment locations.)

How it works
1. A customer has set their store to a specific location. This is needed to determine pickup availability.
2. They view various products on your site. Providing there is stock, some are flagged 'Available for Delivery' or 'Available for Pickup' only, or both.
| Available for Delivery only | Available for Pickup only | Available for Delivery and Pickup |
|---|---|---|
|

3. The customer adds one or more products and starts checkout, first landing on the Cart page.
| Delivery only products added | Pickup only products added |
|---|---|
Whether a Delivery Option is pre-selected depends on what is set in the Delivery Options - Click and Collect Widget. The system will only accept selection of 'Delivery'.
If the default option is Pickup or the customer selects it, The customer is alerted that the Delivery Option will be changed to the available mode. They click 'OK' to continue.
In the Delivery Options box, 'Delivery' is now selected.

What if the customer's cart has products with a mixture of methods?

Here is a cart with a mix of products that are 'delivery only', 'pickup only' and both.
In Delivery Options, the customer selects 'Delivery', which can be applied to the products with delivery only (CV150) and can be shipped or picked up (CV152). But CV151 is available for pickup only. The system will process the order with two delivery methods. The customer continues to check out. Since the order contains both delivery and pickup items, the form displays both delivery and pickup sections. The customer enters their delivery address with any delivery instructions, and any pickup instructions. The Freight Options section displays freight calculated only for products to be shipped.
The Checkout Summary contains both delivery and pickup information.
The customer's confirmation email will contain the delivery information. |
