SuiteCommerce Web Site : SuiteCommerce General Settings : Scriptable Cart : Sample Scripts for Scriptable Cart : Accepting Charitable Donations

Use SuiteScript to accept charitable contributions on your web site.

Create an item record for display on the web store as a charitable donation item. The shopper adds this item to the shopping cart and enters the amount of donation he or she wants to make. After the item is added to the cart, the total amount of the order is recalculated to include the non taxable donation.

Step-by-step guide

Setup

Use the steps below to create the charitable donation item record, and custom item options required to run the sample script. Note that you must complete the following setup steps to use the code sample successfully.

Create a non-inventory item for sale. This will be the Charitable Contribution item displayed on the web store.
1. Go to Lists > Items > New. Click Non-inventory For Sale.
2. Check the Display in Web site box.
3. On the Pricing subtab, set the base price to 0.00.
4. On the Store subtab, select a Site Category to display the item onyour web site. Note: By default, items that do not have a price specified on the item record, display a default message on the web store. To change this message, go to Setup > Site Builder > Customize Text. On the Messages subtab, enter a custom message to replace the value in the Default Text column.
Create a transaction item option custom field linked to the Charitable Contribution item you created in Step1.
1. Go to Setup > Customization > Transaction Item Options.
2. In the Label field, enter a name for this item option.
3. In the ID field, enter _contribution. Note: After you save the transaction item option, the value for ID automatically changes to custcol_contribution. The sample script depends on this value for ID.
4. On Applies To subtab, check the Web Store box, and the Sale box.
5. In the Items multiple select list, choose the item created in Step 1.

Create the Code

// BEGIN CUSTOM FUNCTIONS FOR CHARITABLE CONTRIBUTIONS

function customValidateLine(type)

{

// All validations occur in the item tab.

if (type != 'item')

{

return true;

}

// Note that validation routines are called differently from other events, because the return

// value of each function must be tested before going on to the next function. If any function

// returns false, stop processing and return false.

if (!charity())

{

return false;

}

// All validations passed. Return true.

return true;

}

//END CUSTOM FUNCTIONS FOR CHARITY CONTRIBUTION

///CHARITY CONTRIBUTION

function charity()

{

// Internal ID of the charity item record.

var charityId = 384;

// Ignore any items other than the charity item record.

if (charityId != nlapiGetCurrentLineItemValue('item', 'item'))

{

return true;

}

debug('Charity item detected');

// Validate that the amount in the custom field is greater than zero.

var contribAmount = nlapiGetCurrentLineItemValue('item','custcol_contribution');

debug('Contribution '+contribAmount+' read in');

if (isEmpty(contribAmount) || contribAmount <= 0)

{

alert('You must contribute an amount that is greater than zero!');

return false;

}

debug('Contribution valid - setting the item rate');

// Set the price of the line item to the contribution amount.

setCurrentLineRate(contribAmount);

return true;

}

///END CHARITY CONTRIBUTION

//BEGIN UTILITY FUNCTIONS

function isEmpty(val)

{

return (val == null || val == '');

}

function isNotEmpty(val)

{

return !isEmpty(val);

}

// This function updates the rate and recalculates the value for amount.

function setCurrentLineRate(rate)

{

nlapiSetCurrentLineItemValue('item', 'rate', rate, true, true);

var qty = parseInt(nlapiGetCurrentLineItemValue('item', 'quantity'));

var amount = qty * rate;

nlapiSetCurrentLineItemValue('item', 'amount', amount, true, true);

}

//END UTILITY FUNCTIONS
