Shopping Cart

The Shopping Cart page displays the items that were added to the Shopping Cart from the Shopper (SHOP) page. Also listed are any Vendor Quotes that have been added from the Add Vendor Quotes page. All items are displayed in the same grid, regardless of the Source of Supply.

The Shopping Cart page allows you to do the following:

  • You can remove items from the Shopping Cart page by selecting the Trash Can icon next to the row that needs removed. The total number of items displayed in the Shopping Cart icon is automatically updated when the row is deleted.

  • You can modify the Quantity, Unit, or Unit Price.

  • You can modify the SC Amount.

  • The Update button updates the total dollar amount displayed in the Shopping Cart icon if the values in the Quantity, Unit Price, or SC Amount fields have changed.

  • The Department and Unit field default from the User (SCUSER) page in the CGI Advantage Administration Application. Department is a required field on the Shopping Cart page. Unit is an optional field on the Shopping Cart page.

  • The Shipping Location and the Billing Location are required fields. The fields default from the Procurement User (USER) page, but can be changed to other valid values as established on the Procurement Location (PLOC) page.  The pick list only displays valid values on PLOC.

  • The Accounting Template and Accounting Profile default from the Procurement User (USER) page. Both fields are optional. Only one of these fields can be populated at a time.

  • The Delivery Date field is required and must be greater than or equal to the current system date.

  • The PCard ID field provides a pick list to the Procurement Card Administration (PRCUA) page. The PCard ID is an optional field on the Checkout page.

  • The PCard Expiration Date field is inferred from the PRCUA page based on the value in the PCard ID field.

  • The Requesting Unit is only displayed if an item in your Shopping Cart is associated with Inventory. This field can only be edited if the selected item is associated with Inventory, and is required if the selected item is associated with Inventory. This field allows you to specify the organizational unit that is requesting the stock items. The pick list only displays valid values from the Unit (UNIT) page, based on the current Fiscal Year and Department.  

  • The Ship Whole Indicator is an optional check box field that is only displayed if at least one item in your Shopping Cart is associated with Inventory. Select this option if the request should only be released if all items requested have been reserved (that is, the Available Quantity is greater than or equal to the requested Quantity).

  • The Undo button reverts any changes that you have made to any fields on the Shopping Cart page (if the Update button has not been selected since making the changes).

  • The Empty Cart button immediately removes all items from your Shopping Cart, including vendor quotes. You cannot undo this action after you click the Empty Cart button.  

  • The Add Vendor Quote button transitions you to the Add Vendor Quotes page, which allows you to enter quotes that you have received from vendors. The quotes can then be added to your Shopping Cart. Refer to the “Add Vendor Quotes” topic for more information.

  • The Continue Shopping button transitions you to the Shopper (SHOP) page, which allows you to search for items that you want to purchase. Refer to the “Shopper Functionality” topic for more information.

  • The Proceed to Checkout button transitions you to the Checkout page, which allows you to generate the appropriate transaction based on the items selected in your Shopping Cart. If a Universal Requestor (UR) transaction is being generated, then all Commodities in your Shopping Cart must be established on the Universal Requestor Control (URCTRL) table for your Department; otherwise, an error is received when you click the Checkout button on the Checkout page. Refer to the “Universal Requestor Setup” topic for more information on URCTRL. Refer to the “Initiate Checkout Process” topic for more information on the Checkout page.
