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. 136 Chapter 7 Setting Up Adjustments for Total Weight, Quantity or Purchase You can add sub-total adjustments to the page by applying activations on the Shopping Cart. When you apply activations on the Shopping Cart SmartElement, you can set up the adjustment on such order attributes as, weight, quantity, or sub-total. 1 In Drumbeat, open the shopping page.
