Set up a webshop subscription

Here we show you how you can create webshop subscriptions. There are basically two different types of subscriptions, the saving subscription and the sequence subscription.

With the saving subscription, one payment is made per delivery. With the sequence subscription it is possible to pay in different sequences, e.g. monthly or yearly.

Step 1: Open the Webshop Subscriptions

Navigate to the Webshop Subscriptions by searching for ‘Webshop Subscriptions’.

Step 2: Maintain a subscription

Click on the fast tab ‘New’ to maintain a new subscription.

Step 3: Choose the Subscription Type

To create a saving subscription, you need to navigate to the menu ‘Subscription Selection’ and choose ‘Subscription Order Option’ as the Type.

Step 4: Set up the general data

In our example we want to create a saving subscription for golf balls, which should be valid for the B2C shop. In addition, the subscription should be able to be ordered online and be active in the webshop.

For this exemplary configuration we choose the following settings:
 
  • Code: GOLFBALLSUBSCRIPTION
  • Description: Saving Subscription (every month)
  • Shop Code: B2C-DEMO
  • Shop Language Code: ENU
  • Payment Type: Per Turn
  • Is Active: Check the box
  • Orderable: Check the box

Step 5: Maintain texts for the subscription

You can enter descriptions for the subscription via the menu ‘Texts’.

In our example we write ‘Every Month’ in the Interval Description field. In addition, we write ‘One Month’ in the field ‘Cancellation Terms Description’.

Step 6: Order Options for the subscription

To set a start date for the subscription, you need to navigate to the ‘Subscription Order Option’.

In our example the subscription should start one day after ordering. Also the delivery should take place once a month. For this configuration we choose the following settings:
 
  • Start Date (Formula): 1D
  • Turn Interval (Formula): 1M

Step 7: Add items for the subscription

To add items to the saving subscription, you simply need to click on ‘Activated Items’. There you click in the first empty line under the column ‘Item No.’. Then select your desired article and enter a fixed price.

In our example we select the ‘Golfball VcV e.V.’ with the item No. ‘1006’ and set a fixed price of ’15,99’.

Step 8: Synchronize the subscription

In order to synchronize the webshop subscriptons with the webshop system, you need to click on the fast tab ‘Synchronize Subscription’. This will update all the subscriptions that have been changes since the last update.
