Hey Tim,
I am really eager to have a look at your latest
patches. And I will as soon as I can dig myself out
of the holidays. I want to thank you and everyone
else who has worked on this for preserving the
previous cart for others deployments. I really, truly
appreciate it. Happy Holidays!

And it just is not working properly in the Demo data
as far as I
know. Rohit, if you have further recommendations
for the checkout
process, please feel free to file them as feature
enhancements so
that they can get tracked.
Just to be thorough - here are my thoughts on your
recommendations
below:
1. The reason there are now a million different
paths thru the
checkout process is that we're trying to give people
who are building
their own applications options to build on. I do
not believe that
the OOTB OFBiz is something that should ever reach
production. Now
people have a number of different paths to build
their own checkout
processes on - and for that - we are thankful.
2. This is definitely something that should be
addressed at some
point. Your issue is in JIRA and will be addressed
as soon as
everyone can get to it. Feel free to dig in and
submit a patch for
approval!!
3. I am going to have to disagree with you on this
one. Having less
steps are totally going to help the user get to the
part of paying
more quickly - which can only be a good thing.
There is one page for
your personal information and one page to select the
options that are
there for you. If they want to change their credit
card - and thus
their billing address - then they only need to
bounce back to the one
other page and update the info. Pretty easy in my
mind.
Cheers,
Tim

Hi Tim.
I just tried the new 3 and 6 step anonymous
checkout, and it seems
to be
working great for a demo transaction. Though even
the new checkout
needs
gift options to be enabled, shipping is properly
calculated and
added to
the
order total.
I you don't mind, i did like to suggest three
things:
1) include an option to enable or disable
anonymous checkout in the
product
store and also include the option for selecting 3
step or 6 step
anonymous
checkout, if anonymous checkout it enable in the
first place. I do
not
really think its wise to offer the customer a
total of 4 checkout
methods
including 2 in anonymous and 2 in regular
checkout. Too many
options may
just confuse the customer.
2) If the Gift option issued can be addressed it
will be great,
for those
who do not offer it on their stores.
3) from my experience, i have usually seem
billing address being
entered
in
the same page in which the credit card number is
entered, whereas
in the
new
3 step checkout its entered in 'shipping
options'. Just to think of a
scenario when this might cause some problem: a
customers first
credit card
is not processed and he decides to use another
card which might
have a
different billing address, the what does he do?
Or, simply the
customer
decided to use a card with different billing
address when he is
reviewing
the order, he will probably be confused and have
to work out
himself on
how
to change the billing address, previously
entered. Though its
pretty easy
thing to do, but more often than not these minor
things cost huge
in lost
sales.
Personally i think the 3 step checkout is simple
and fast and full
credit
to
the efforts of Tim and other involved in it.

-----------------------------------
Rohit, thanks for applying this as another
issue - and thanks to
David
for
clarifying that. First of all, I do not think
that Gift Cards
have been
working out of the box as a payment method for
a long time now,
so I do
not believe that this is being addressed at
this point. If I'm
wrong,
please let me know, but for all of the older
versions I have
around -
this
is feature was not working.
Secondly, the shipping costs bug is definitely
there and has
been fixed
in
the latest patch that has a functional 2 and 6
step process.
Once this
is
applied it will be working.
Errors in anonymous checkout.
