Store Settings

Configure storefront domain, currency, tax, shipping rules, payment gateways, emails, and abandoned-cart recovery in RedERP Ecommerce.

Overview

Ecommerce → Store Settings controls how your public shop behaves: branding basics, currency and tax display, delivery options, payment methods, notification emails, and cart recovery.

Open Ecommerce → Settings. Use the tabs (General, Shipping, Payments, and related sections) to edit each area.

General store settings

Typical fields:

  • Store name — Shown on the shop and in emails
  • Store domain / handle — Public URL handle (e.g. dailydose)
  • Template / theme — Active storefront theme
  • Published — Whether the shop is live
  • Currency — Storefront currency code (e.g. QAR, TND, EUR)
  • Tax rate % — Fallback VAT when a product has no own rate
  • Prices include tax — How prices are displayed to shoppers
  • Flat shipping rate — Used when no shipping rule matches

Save after changes. The storefront may need a refresh to pick up settings.

Shipping rules

Open the Shipping rules tab.

Add a rule

  1. Click Add rule (or equivalent).
  2. Enter a name (e.g. Standard delivery).
  3. Choose rule type (usually flat rate).
  4. Set price and optional free-shipping minimum.
  5. Optionally limit by countries (ISO codes such as QA, TN, FR).
  6. Set Active and save.

If no rule matches, checkout may fall back to the flat shipping rate from general settings.

Payment gateways

Open the Payments tab. Checkout only accepts gateways that exist and are Active. If none are configured, shoppers cannot complete payment correctly.

Available gateway types

CodeUse when
codCash on delivery / pay later (no card)
stripeCard payments via Stripe
clicktopayClick to Pay style flows
redirect / external_linkSend the shopper to an external payment URL
  1. Add gateway.
  2. Select cod.
  3. Enter a display name (e.g. Cash on Delivery).
  4. Turn Active on.
  5. Save.

Add Stripe

  1. Add gateway → stripe.
  2. Enter display name (e.g. Credit card).
  3. Paste Stripe credentials JSON (publishable + secret keys as required by the form).
  4. Optionally set webhook secret.
  5. Turn Active on → Save.

Tips

  • Inactive gateways do not appear on the storefront.
  • Creating an order with a gateway that is missing or inactive returns Invalid or inactive payment gateway.
  • Do not confuse this tab with Ecommerce → Payment methods (that list is for other payment-type master data).

Emails & notifications

Configure:

  • Email notifications enabled — Master switch for store emails
  • Sender name — From name on shopper emails
  • Reply-to — Inbox for contact form and replies

Order confirmation and contact messages need a working email provider (e.g. SendGrid) on the server plus these settings.

Abandoned cart recovery

Fields typically include:

  • Auto recovery enabled — Send recovery emails for idle carts
  • Idle hours — How long a cart waits before recovery (e.g. 24)

Recovery emails contain a link to /cart?recover=… or /checkout?recover=…. The shopper’s cart is restored when the token is valid.

Requirements: recovery enabled, email notifications on, and the cart synced with a customer email (usually at checkout or earlier if cart sync is configured).

Checklist before go-live

  1. Store handle and currency correct
  2. At least one active payment gateway
  3. Shipping rule or flat rate set
  4. Reply-to / sender name set
  5. Test order on the storefront
  6. Confirm email received (or clear “not sent” messaging)
