Reconfiguration

Once the article has been configured, you can give others the possibility for reconfiguration. E.g. if you want to give your customers the opportunity to change the article's configuration from cart or to show your website visitors a specially good selling configuration first.

Reconfiguration for single Articles

If you want to reconfigure a single article (no article group!), the reconfiguration can be called with the needed Available URL Parameter. Needed are at least the parameters that are defining the shown product.

An article is defined by:

  • manufacturer or catalog id - moc=
  • series ID - sid=
  • base article number - ban=
  • ofml variant code (if available) - ovc=

Reconfiguration of Article Groups / PECS / Articles with META

Reconfiguration of article groups (Article with child / parallel articles) is only possible with reopenurl. To generate such an reopenurl you just have to add the Available URL Parameter &obx=[obxFilePath] to the iframe source.

This way the reconfiguration / reopen url is only valid for 24 hours. To prolong the validation please check OBX Hosting.

Folowing Methods can be used:


Method 1: Generating ReopenUrl with OBX url from Admin Panel

By using the Admin Panel it's easy to get the obx url. Simply configurate the article as mentioned in the tutorial. After that:

  • in maximized admin panel, click the heading “Product Data”
  • click onto the on end of line with the name “OBX url”
  • obx url will be generated with the click and copied to your clipboard

You can then use it after the parameter obx=.

Method 2: using ReopenUrl from OCI (Shop only)

by using the reopenURL of the OCI file (NEW_ITEM-EGR_CUSTOMDATA_REOPEN_URL). With this URL, the article is shown with the configuration set by the user.

This is the reopenUrl automatically generated by our server.

Example:

"NEW_ITEM-EGR_CUSTOMDATA_REOPEN_URL[1]":
"https://ui.pcon-solutions.com/#GATEKEEPER_ID=[GATEKEEPER_ID]&lang=en&sh=true&tax=AT&HOOK_URL=[yourHOOK_URL]&obx=https%3A%2F%2F[..].obx"

all the url parameters were automatically set as you set before.

:!: please note that the parameter &obx= was added. The obx file is hosted on our servers and therefore the reopenUrl is valid for 24 hours. In case you want to prolong it, you have to host the files on your own server. Check obxhosting for more information.

Method 3: Generating ReopenUrl with OBX url from OCI (Shop only)

By using the obxurl of the OCI file (NEW_ITEM-EGR_CUSTOMDATA_OBX_URL). This url set as url parameter &obx= is the reopenUrl, With this URL, the article is shown with the configuration set by the user.

Example:

"NEW_ITEM-EGR_CUSTOMDATA_OBX_URL[1]":
"[..].obx"

:!: Please note that the obx file is hosted on our servers and therefore the reopenUrl is valid for 24 hours. In case you want to prolong it, you have to host the files on your own server. Check obxhosting for more information.

Method 4: Using ReopenUrl from Postmessage Data (Lead only)

Using the postMessage information “reopenUrl”: “https://[..]”. With this URL, the article is shown with the configuration set by the user.

This is the reopenUrl automatically generated by our server.

Method 5: Generating ReopenUrl with OBX url from Postmessage Data (Lead only)

By using the postMessage information “obxUrl”: “[..].obx”. This url set as url parameter &obx= is the reopenUrl, With this URL, the article is shown with the configuration set by the user.

Reconfiguration - Update Cart (Shop only)

You have to make sure that the reconfigured article is replacing the old one. This should be implemented in your preferred shop system. pCon.ui helps you to let the customer know that the article in cart will pe updated - just add the url parameter upd=true and the button text will be changed from ADD TO CART to UPDATE CART.
