Set up a new Account with Reference Modules and B2C sample data.

• Access to a Fluent Account, including the Account Admin credentials
• The Fluent CLI is successfully installed (see Getting Started with the Fluent CLI)
• Postman (and the Fluent CLI Test Collection)

Before you can use the Fluent CLI, you will need to create a Profile for the Account you intend to interact with:

`fluent profile create cli-b2c --id <ACCOUNT_ID> --base-url https://<account_id>.sandbox.api.fluentretail.com --username <account_id>_admin --password <password> --client-secret <client_secret>`

Make sure you replace the placeholders above with the relevant Account information.

Next, create the B2C Retailer on the Account:

`fluent retailer create b2c --email b2c@test.com --profile cli-b2c`

The Order and Inventory Modules require configuration to be provided to the install. To generate the configuration files, run the following commands:

`fluent module config order --retailer b2c --profile cli-b2c`

`fluent module config inventory --retailer b2c --profile cli-b2c`

This will produce new module configuration files in the current working directory:

• module.config.b2c.order.json
• module.config.b2c.inventory.json

You will need to open each of these in a text editor to populate the relevant information. Since we are providing a Sample B2C Data Module, we know the set up we’re creating, and can populate these files with the following information.

Order Config for Sample B2C Retailer set up:

1{
2   "default:system.rejected.location.ref": "RJT_1",
3   "default:inventory.catalogue.ref": "DEFAULT:1",
4   "default:inventory.retailer.id": "1",
5   "default:carrier.ref": "DEFAULT_CARRIER:1",
6   "default:label.url": "DEMO_UK_RoyalMail_Label.pdf",
7   "workflow:order:cc:network.ref": "B2C_CC_1",
8   "workflow:order:cc:virtual.catalogue.ref": "BASE:1",
9   "workflow:order:hd:network.ref": "B2C_HD_1",
10   "workflow:order:hd:virtual.catalogue.ref": "BASE:1",
11   "workflow:order:multi:network.ref": "B2C_BASE_1",
12   "workflow:order:multi:virtual.catalogue.ref": "BASE:1"
13}

Inventory Config for Sample B2C Retailer set up:

1{
2    "default:product.catalogue.ref": "PC:MASTER:1",
3    "default:product.catalogue.type": "MASTER",
4    "default:inventory.catalogue.ref": "DEFAULT:1",
5    "default:inventory.catalogue.type": "DEFAULT",
6    "default:inventory.retailer.id": "1",
7    "default:inventory.change.event.name": "InventoryChanged",
8    "default:virtual.catalogue.base.ref": "BASE:1",
9    "default:virtual.catalogue.aggregate.ref": "ATS:1"
10}

You’re now ready to install each of the Reference Modules.

• Install the Core Reference Module:

  `fluent module install core --retailer b2c --profile cli-b2c`

• Install the Fulfilment Reference Module:

  `fluent module install fulfilment --retailer b2c --profile cli-b2c`

• Install the Order Reference Module with our configuration:

  `fluent module install order --config module.config.b2c.order.json --retailer b2c --profile cli-b2c`

• Install the Inventory Reference Module with our configuration:

  `fluent module install inventory --config module.config.b2c.inventory.json --retailer b2c --profile cli-b2c`

The Reference Modules are now installed on the Account for Retailer

`b2c`

You’re now ready to install the Sample Data Module for the B2C Retailer.

• Install the Sample B2C Data Module:

  `fluent module install https://downloads.fluentcommerce.com/v1.0.0/modules/fcx/b2c-sample-data/latest --retailer b2c --profile cli-b2c`

The Sample B2C Data Inventory Module requires a module configuration file:

• Configure the Sample B2C Data Inventory Module:

  `fluent module config https://downloads.fluentcommerce.com/v1.0.0/modules/fcx/b2c-sample-data-inventory/latest --retailer b2c --profile cli-b2c`

• Install the Sample B2C Data Inventory Module:

  `fluent module install https://downloads.fluentcommerce.com/v1.0.0/modules/fcx/b2c-sample-data-inventory/latest --config module.config.b2c.b2c-sample-data-inventory.json --retailer b2c --profile cli-b2c`

Now that you have completed the set up of the Account and Retailer, let’s test it out.

We’ve added a Profile Export capability for a Postman Environment File which can be used with the Postman Collection provided in the Sample B2C Project postman folder.

• Export the Profile for Postman:

  `fluent profile export cli-b2c --format postman --retailer b2c`

  This will create a new Postman Environment File in the current working directory.
  • Open the Postman Environment File and copy the password for the b2c Retailer Admin User.
    
• Open the Fluent OMS web app in a browser, and log in to the Fluent OMS web app:

  `https://<account_id>.sandbox.apps.fluentcommerce.com/oms/`

  • Take a look around at the following areas to see the data created:
    • Retailers
    • Carriers
    • Users
    • Roles
    • Settings
    • Locations
    • Networks
    • Product Catalogues (Including Products & Categories)
    • Inventory Catalogue
    • Virtual Catalogues
    • Control Groups
      
• Import the Environment File and CLI Test Collection into Postman
  • Authenticate the Account Admin User
    • Run the “Get Plugin Rules” request. Click on the “Visualize” tab in the response window to view the Installed Plugins and Rules library.
  • Authenticate the Retailer Admin User

• Open the Fluent Store web app:

  `https://<account_id>.sandbox.apps.fluentcommerce.com/store/`

  • Log in with username / password: B2C_SYD_1 / B2C_SYD_1
    Note: Replace the 1 with the relevant Retailer Id, should this not be the first Retailer in the Account.
  • Create a Wave, and complete the Pick, Pack, Dispatch process
    Note: You can see the Order and Fulfilment statuses change for each step in Fluent OMS
  • Collect the Articles using the Customer Collection and Carrier Collection Screens
  • The Orders should now be completed
