To create a website, you must first decide your online store's registration procedure. There are four different site registration scenarios:
- Existing Customer, New Customer or Guest Shopper
- Existing Customer only
- Existing Customer or New Customer
- Guest Shopper only
You can select one of the choices based on the needs of your business. For a more complete discussion of the various registration flows and how they operate and checkout , see Customer Registration Flow.
To configure site registration:
1. Go to Commerce > Websites > Web Sit List
2. On your Web Site Setup record, click Edit.
3. On the Shopping > Registration Page > Type of Customer Registration, choose one of the following to restrict or allow customer registration in your Web site:
- Select “disabled” you want to prevent shopper registration on your site. All shoppers will be anonymous.
- Select “existing customers only” if you only want customers who have login access to complete the checkout process. This option is only available with the Advanced Site Customization feature.
- Select “optional” (anonymous) if you want customers to be able to choose to register or to shop without logging in.
- Select “required” if you want all shoppers to register on your site. With this option, a record is created in NetSuite with contact information even if the shopper does not complete checkout.
4. Click Save
If you have several websites, you can choose to limit a customer's access to a certain one. Customers are assigned to every location by default. To change this behavior, see Assign Customers to Websites.
