Now that you have met all of the requirements, let us begin with the steps on how to create a website using our CP-Commerce Admin Applet.
2.1 Website Listing
In the CP-Commerce Admin Applet, go to the website menu and click on “+” button. A tab to create a website will appear, and you may fill in the necessary information.
Website Code: The website code is how you want your website URL to appear when customers search for your website on any search engine. Do note that you cannot change the website code after you have clicked on “CREATE.”
Website Title: Enter the name of your website here in the space provided. It is important that the title of your website correspond with the name of your company.
Branch: For the branch, select the branch that you have created for your company in the Organization Applet. You must select the right branch if you have multiple branches, as the prices of products might vary from one branch to another.
Pricing and Pricing Scheme: the pricing dropdown, choose “PRICING_SCHEME.” Then, an option for a pricing scheme will appear below. You have to choose the “CP-COMMERCE” pricing scheme that you have created in the Doc Item Maintenance Applet. This is to ensure that your items' prices will be linked to the CP-Commerce website.

Merchant: This option will appear in the Website Edit > Details after you have clicked on the “CREATE” button above. The merchant option is to link the merchant or person who will be receiving the payment from the payment.
Enable Shipping Fee Process: You can check this box if you are selling your products through your website and there is a shipping fee associated with them. Then, you can choose the shipping fee options.
Shipping Pricebook: The price book has to be created in the Internal Sales Order Applet beforehand, and you will receive the code. The code will have its own specific shipping price.
Delivery Charges: This option is to select the shipping charges, whether they are by region or country.
Status: The status has to be changed to “ACTIVE” in order for the website to go live. You may make the website inaccessible for customers in the future by choosing “INACTIVE” in case you need to make changes to your website.
Membership Class: For the membership, you have to choose the membership class that you have created in the Membership Admin Applet.
Enable Web-Chat: If you want to add the chat widget to the website, you have to check this box. Then, link your business’ UCC endpoint ID.
Restrict View/Access by Entity: You can check this box if only specific people or businesses are intended to view your website. Then, go to settings and add the customer’s access in “Client Side Permissions.”

The "Manage Image" tab is created to upload images to be shown on the website. Users can upload pictures and choose whether the pictures are in the logo, sliders, or favicon category. The images uploaded will be presented as sliders on the websites after the changes have been made. Users could upload as many images as the company desired. When users want to upload new images on their website, they can click on the + sign to bring them to a new page.

Logo: You can select this option to upload a logo. Then, in the layout instance, you can make use of this image that has been added to the gallery.

Sliders: You can select sliders and upload as many images as you want. The image slider displays a series of images or content panels in a slideshow format.
