Adobe B2B

This extension contains the connector to use Front-Commerce with a headless Adobe Commerce B2B backend.

Prerequisites​

  1. On Magento 2 side, you need to install the Front-Commerce Magento2 Commerce module.

    You must then install the front-commerce/magento2-b2b-module-front-commerce module:

    composer config repositories.front-commerce-magento2-b2b git \
        git@gitlab.blackswift.cloud:front-commerce/magento2-b2b-module-front-commerce.git
    composer require front-commerce/magento2-b2b-module

    bin/magento setup:upgrade
    tip

    We recommend to use a specific version of this module and not to blindly rely on the latest version.

  2. On Front-Commerce side, you need to setup and install the @front-commerce/magento2 extension

Installation​

First ensure you have installed the package:

$ pnpm add @front-commerce/adobe-b2b@latest

Setup Adobe B2B Extension​

Update your front-commerce.config.ts to include the Adobe B2B Extension :

front-commerce.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from "@front-commerce/core/config";
import themeChocolatine from "@front-commerce/theme-chocolatine";
import magento2 from "@front-commerce/magento2";
import adobeB2B from "@front-commerce/adobe-b2b";
import storesConfig from "./app/config/stores";
import cacheConfig from "./app/config/caching";

export default defineConfig({
  extensions: [
    themeChocolatine(),
    magento2({ storesConfig }),
    adobeB2B(),
  ],
  stores: storesConfig,
  cache: cacheConfig,
});

Feature Flags​

The Adobe B2B extension supports the following feature flags: Click to expand.
  • Cart (default: true) - Enable the Cart feature
  • Company (default: true) - Enable the Company feature
  • CompanyStructure (default: true) - Enable the CompanyStructure feature
  • NegotiableQuotes (default: true) - Enable the NegotiableQuotes feature
  • RequisitionList (default: true) - Enable the RequisitionList feature
    • ⚠️ Requires component overrides
  • StoreCredit (default: true) - Enable the StoreCredit feature

All these features are active by default. To disable a feature you should return a falsy value for the feature flag in your extension options:

front-commerce.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from "@front-commerce/core/config";
import themeChocolatine from "@front-commerce/theme-chocolatine";
import magento2 from "@front-commerce/magento2";
import adobeB2B from "@front-commerce/adobe-b2b";
import storesConfig from "./app/config/stores";
import cacheConfig from "./app/config/caching";

export default defineConfig({
  extensions: [
    magento2({ storesConfig }),
    adobeB2B({
      features: {
        Company: false, // Company feature will be disabled
        NegotiableQuotes: false, // NegotiableQuotes feature will be disabled
        RequisitionList: false, // RequisitionList feature will be disabled
        // all other features will be enabled by default
      },
    }),
    themeChocolatine(),
  ],
  stores: storesConfig,
  cache: cacheConfig,
  configuration: {
    providers: [],
  },
});
tip

If a feature is not defined in the feature flags, it will be enabled by default.

caution

The RequisitionList feature requires some component overrides as the graphql documents will no longer be available if this feature is disabled

Known issues​

Bundle products can't be used in requisition lists​

Due to an issue (documented below) with Adobe B2B GraphQL layer, we don't recommend to use Requistion List with bundle items with the default Adobe B2B codebase. Please contact your Adobe support team if you plan to use this feature.

Reproduction details and technical insights

The issue can be reproduced by not selecting the first value for the first option of the bundle. It's related to Magento GraphQL layer, because:

  • it can be reproduced when reading a requisition list whose item was added from the Magento frontend

  • when a requisition list is broken, the standard Magento frontend displays the correct value

When the first choice is selected for the first option, the requisition list can be read but has inconsistent data: the "non-first" option having a "non-first" choice will be resolved as the previous option. E.g: "Sprite Foam Yoga Brick" is returned instead of "Sprite Yoga Strap 10 foot"):

Wrong option returned (frontend)

Wrong option returned (GraphQL)

It seems to be due to some kind of mismatch between and index and its value for selected options id in the Magento resolver, as the call made natively from Magento is the same as the one made from Front-Commerce:

The same call is made from Front-Commerce and from Magento
