Settings - Global objects

Here you can configure settings related to the use of global objects in the Kentico E-commerce Solution.

The system allows you to use:

  • site-specific objects available on your separate sites only
  • global objects shared across all these sites

Concerning the multistore approach, there are three groups of objects available for your sites:

Objects with both site and global option

Include E-commerce Solution objects that you can use either as site-specific objects, or as site-specific objects together with global objects. Corresponds to the Allow global objects for section.

Objects with only site or global option

Include E-commerce Solution objects that you can use only separately, i.e. either as site-specific objects, or as global objects. Corresponds to the Use global settings for section.

Special case objects

Include site-bound E-commerce Solution objects, for which there are no global object settings available; for example customers, orders, reports, discounts.

Check boxes in the Allow global objects for section indicate for the selected site if the respective global objects along with the respective site-specific objects are used (ON), or if only the respective site-specific objects are used (OFF).

Check boxes in the Use global settings for section indicate for the selected site if the respective global settings are used (ON), or if the respective site-specific settings are used (OFF).
