Adding publications to a cart
The platform offers several methods for adding publications to carts.
Adding titles from the catalogue
No matter where you are in the catalogue, whether it's the entire catalogue, selections or search results:
- An Add to cart button and the list of available carts are always visible at the top of the screen.
- Each publication has a directly editable quantity field.
So to add copies of a publication to a cart you simply have to:
- Select a quantity of copies (by using the buttons or by entering it directly) for each desired publication.
- Select the desired cart from the list of available carts; all carts to which the logged-in user has access are displayed in the list.
- Selecting New cart automatically creates a new cart, named by default using a combination of the user's name, the current date and a sequence number.
- Clicking on Add to cart adds all the selected publications, in the required quantities, to the active cart and displays the contents of the destination cart.
Adding titles from a selection
Thematic selections prepared by booksellers can be added to a shopping cart with one click.
- Click on the Selections item in the main menu.
- Click on the Show all button corresponding to the desired selection.
- To the right of the title and the description of the selection, you will find the quantity of titles included in it, as well as the total amount (calculated on a single copy of each title).
- Select the desired destination cart as the active cart.
- Clicking on the Add selection to cart button will add one copy of each title in this selection to the active cart and display its contents.
Add titles from another cart
From the source cart screen, you can move all or some of the publications it contains to the destination cart of your choice (or to a new cart).
- In the source cart, check the box corresponding to the titles you want to move (or the master box at the top of the list to select all the titles in the cart).
- Click on the Move to cart link.
- In the window that displays, select the desired destination cart from the list of existing carts, or enter the name of a new cart that will be created automatically.
- Click on the Save button, confirm your choice, and all selected titles (and selected quantities) will be moved to the destination cart.
Adding titles by importation
It is also possible to add a batch of publications to a cart by directly importing their ISBNs.
This importation can be done by entering a list manually or by selecting a file in CSV format.
- From the cart consultation screen, click on the desired cart.
- From the Actions menu, select Import ISBN.
- The importation screen is displayed.
- If you have a CSV file containing the list of ISBNs to import, click on Select CSV file.
- If you wish to enter the ISBNs manually, simply type them into the text box, one ISBN per line.
- Click on Send to start the importation.
- Once the importation is complete, the screen displays the publications corresponding to the imported ISBNs, with the importation report:
- Name of the destination cart.
- Number of publications added to the cart.
- Ignored ISBNs (already in the cart).
- Ignored ISBNs (not matching a valid publication).
Notes:
- ISBN 10 and 13 are supported.
- The format of the ISBNs must be exclusively numeric (no spaces or dashes).
- ISBNs should only correspond to publications in EPUB or PDF format.
- Publications are always added with a quantity of one copy.
Deleting publications from a cart
Removing one or more publications from any cart is easy:
- From the cart consultation screen, click on the desired cart.
- In the cart screen, check the box corresponding to the titles you wish to remove (or the master box at the top of the list to select all titles in the cart).
- Click on the Delete link.
Changing the number of copies in a cart
You can change the number of copies of all publications in non-validated carts. When you increase, decrease or directly enter a quantity, the cart automatically records these changes and adjusts all totals, taxes, etc., accordingly.
Setting the number of copies to zero does not remove the publication from a cart. In this respect, the platform's carts work a bit like wish lists or favorites, allowing you to organize your shopping lists independently of quantities.
Deleting a cart
To permanently delete a cart:
- In the desired cart screen, click on the Delete option of the Actions menu.
