Order Properties

Order Properties UI Extension for Umbraco Commerce

With the use of Properties, Umbraco Commerce allows a lot of flexibility to capture whatever data you need to record against an Order. To complement that functionality, it is also possible to configure those properties to be editable within the backoffice UI.

Order Properties are defined as manifest entries in your umbraco-package.manifest.

"extensions": [
    {
        "type": "ucOrderProperty",
        "alias": "Uc.OrderProperty.FirstName",
        "name": "Customer FirstName",
        "weight": 400,
        "meta": {
            "propertyAlias": "firstName",
            "group": "Uc.OrderPropertyGroup.Customer",
            "editorUiAlias": "Umb.PropertyEditorUi.TextBox",
            "labelUiAlias": "Umb.PropertyEditorUi.Label"
        }
    }
]

Each entry must have a type of ucOrderProperty along with a unique alias and name. An optional forEntityTypes key can also be defined to control whether the property is visible on the Cart editor, or the Order editor, or both. The forEntityTypes is an array and can accept either or both of uc:cart or uc:order values.

A meta entry provides configuration options for the property

Name	Description
propertyAlias	The alias of the order line property to edit
group	Defines a group in which to display the property
editorUiAlias	The alias of the property editor to use to edit this property
editorConfig	A JSON serialized string to pass to the editor UI as config
labelUiAlias	The alias of the property editor to use to view this property

Order Property Groups

Order properties can be defined as one of the following to control where the property is displayed.

Name	Description
Uc.OrderPropertyGroup.Customer	Displays the property in the Customer fieldset of the customer details editor modal
Uc.OrderPropertyGroup.Billing	Displays the property in the Billing fieldset of the customer details editor modal
Uc.OrderPropertyGroup.Shipping	Displays the property in the Shipping fieldset of the customer details editor modal
Uc.OrderPropertyGroup.Notes	Displays the property in the Notes section of the Order editor
Uc.OrderPropertyGroup.AdditionalInfo	Displays the property in the Additional Info fieldset of the Order editor

Localization

When displaying your properties in the backoffice UI it is necessary to provide localizable labels. This is controlled by Umbraco's UI Localization feature.

Umbraco Commerce will automatically look for the following entries:

Key	Description
ucProperties_{alias}Label	A main label for the property
ucProperties_{alias}Description	A description for the property

Here {alias} is the property alias of a property.
