What are order value limits?
With order value limits, such as a maximum cart value or a minimum order value, you can regulate orders and ensure cost control.
There are two types of limit:
- Maximum cart value
- Minimum order value
This function helps to regulate orders efficiently and to ensure cost control.
Maximum cart value
Define a maximum amount that a shopping cart must not exceed.
- If this value is exceeded, check-out is not possible.
- Assignment of the limits:
- Individual users
- Groups
- All users
A mix of these options is not possible.
Minimum order value
- Define a minimum amount that an order must reach.
- If the value is not reached, check-out is blocked.
- Choose between two order value limit types:
Note: If you remove a vendor from an individual order value limit, the default order value limit is assigned to it automatically.
Special features of the shopping cart
- A shopping cart can contain articles from several vendors.
- At checkout, a separate order is created automatically for each vendor.
Exception: OCI-Punchout users
- The order value limits do not apply to OCI-Punchout users.
- Reason: Changes can be made directly in the ERP system.
