How to set Quantity in shopping cart of item based on variable without using DOM

[Joshwa Antony S]

Hi All,

We want to set the Quantity of catalog item based on a variable in the item.

We wanted to achieve this without using DOM (gel, $, j$, getElementBy, g_form.getControl, g_form.getElement)

Is there any way to achieve the functionality without using DOM

Regards,

JAS

When you use onSubmit & GlideAjax(Async) - The sc_cart_item might be removed when my onSubmit runs for manipulation. in this case also i wont be having that entry in sc_cart_item table.

In this case instead of GlideAjax(Async) try GlideAjax(Sync) that will hold your client script to perform until you get the result from your script include. That might work.

Thanks,

Hi,

you cannot use sync GlideAjax in portal

Hi

Then maybe you need to describe a bit more in detail, what you want to achieve with "Setting the quantity of a catalog Item". Maybe I guesses wrong, what you are heading for.

Let me know, please.

Dirk , Mohit, Ankur - As said, I need to set the quantity automatically in shopping cart during submission or at the backend (sc_cart_item) based on a variable in the catalog item without using DOM/Sync GlideAjax.

As said by Ankur - Sync Ajax will not work in Portal, we wanted to have our implementation in both desktop UI and Portal UI.

Are there any ways to do this?

Hi

Last try:

OK, if you do have a catalog variable holding the number of items you want to have, I recommend to implement a workflow Run Script on the RITM, which will read this variable and change the "Quantity" of the Requested Item Record (current), to the value of your variable.

This should be a quite easy task to complete this script.

Let me know if that addresses your question and mark my answer correct/helpful, please.
