Product added in a catalog and immediately visible
|
|
|
| Hi,
When I import products to a catalog by BizDesk or the PIA methods, these
products can be visualized immediately in my web site (ASP.Net).
How can i do to prevent the visualization of my new products in my website
untill i decided (explicit refresh...) ?
The catalog.refresh method seems useless in my case because it refreshes the
caches and i don't use the cache objects because it seems to be dedicated to
ASP site.
Thanks for your help.

| Are you using FP1 ?
The Catalog component in FP1 does not have the cache enabled by default and
since it uses a different caching technology than the CS Cache, it needs to
be programitically enabled... There is a KB from Microsoft explaining how
this can be done (the problem is I don't have that link handy)
Since the caching is not enabled by default, all changes will be reflected
immediately.

We don't use FP1.
But is it possible with FP1 to import (create, delete) products in an
existing catalog and, if there are errors for example, to "rollback" (or
explicitely refresh) the entire import with the new caching functionalities.
All the users that work during the process could only see the catalog as it
was before the import begins.

| If you're not using FP1 then in the web.config file for your site look for
the following entry
<cache
name="QueryCatalogInfoCache"
type="QCI"
loaderProgId="Commerce.LRUCacheFlush"
refreshInterval="0"
retryInterval="300"
maxSize="10000">
This controls the catalog cache.. a "refreshInterval" of 0 means online
which is similar to the behaviour you're seeing... this entry is set in
seconds so setting it appropriately would control your ability to modify
catalogs and publish then at the site.
No, FP1 would not provide the functionality you're requesting. It has that
functionality only for discounts.
The functionality you're requesting however is better achieved if you have a
QA system in place... all new catalog work can happen on the QA environment.
Once the catalogs are ready they can be exported from the QA and imported
into production.
