Make a final check of availability of your items from the selected supplier and, if necessary
Select alternative items or suppliers, for quicker delivery.
Click
[Check Availability], above the list of items, on the Shopping Cart page.
The system
performs a check of availability at the selected suppliers, for all items in the
Shopping Cart, and re-displays the Shopping Cart
page.
Unit Price Changes
If the check on availability reports that there has also been a change in the supplier's unit price for the item, the Shopping Cart unit price is changed to show this new price.
However, this change is for information only, When the Shopping Cart is submitted, the old price is used to calculate the total price of the Order.
If the reported availability for an item is not acceptable, you may:
Click [Update Total] if you have:
Deleted any item
Change the quantity of any item
Selected an alternative item or supplier, or
Performed any other action that may change the total cost of the Shopping Cart
The system recalculates and re-displays the Subtotal, Estimated tax, and Total amounts for the Shopping Cart.
This only applies to changes of items, supplier or quantity, it does not reflect reported supplier unit price changes.
If all the items in the Shopping Cart are require modification, you can click [Delete All] above the list of items, on the Shopping Cart page.
The entire Shopping Cart contents are removed, and you can begin shopping again, choose some other activity or leave the application all together.
