Linking your commerce application to a domain in NetSuite is a crucial step in setting up a fully functional SuiteCommerce or SuiteCommerce Advanced site. Without this configuration, key features like themes, extensions, and proper deployment of SuiteScript 2.0 (SS2) applications may not work as expected. This guide walks you through the exact steps required to ensure your application is correctly linked and deployed, whether you're using a single secure domain or separate shopping and checkout domains.
Linking an SSP Application to a Domain in NetSuite
To link your application to your domain:
- In NetSuite, go to Commerce > Hosting > SSP Applications.
- Click View next to the correct application:
- SuiteCommerce - SuiteCommerce
- SuiteCommerce MyAccount- SuiteCommerce
- SuiteCommerce Advanced - SuiteCommerce Advanced - Dev xxxx (where xxxx equals the SCA version being installed)
3. Click Link to Domain to link touch points to your domain.
Important: Touchpoints configured for a domain override the touchpoints configured for the related website. To take advantage of themes and extensions, you must link the SSP to a domain. However, you must also define touchpoints on the website record. Domain-only touch point configuration is not supported.
Deploy the SuiteScript 2.0 (SS2) Application
- In NetSuite, go to Commerce > Hosting > SSP Applications.
- Click View next to the correct SS2 application:
Note: The SS2 SSP Application is included with SuiteCommerce, SuiteCommerce MyAccount, and SuiteCommerce Advanced applications (2019.1 and later). This SSP Application is required to manage scripting written in SuiteScript 2.0.
- SuiteCommerce - SuiteCommerce SS2
- SuiteCommerce MyAccount - SuiteCommerce SS2
- SuiteCommerce Advanced 2019.1 and later - SuiteCommerce Advanced - Dev xxxx SS2 (xxxx equals the SCA version being installed)
3. If your Commerce website uses a single, secure domain for shopping and checkout:
Note: This step includes SuiteCommerce MyAccount implementations, which should be set up to use a single, secure domain.
- In the SSP Application record, click Deploy to Domain.
- In the Domain field, select the domain for your site.
- Click Save.
4. If your Commerce web store uses two separate domains for shopping and checkout:
- In the SSP Application record, click Deploy to Site.
- In the Deploy to All Shopping Domains on Site field, select the site associated with your shopping domain.
In the Deploy to Checkout Domain on Site field, select the site associated with your checkout domain.
Successfully Linking Your Commerce Application to a Domain in NetSuite
By successfully linking your commerce application to your domain and deploying the necessary SuiteScript 2.0 (SS2) application, you're ensuring your SuiteCommerce environment is optimized for both functionality and customization. These foundational steps pave the way for seamless user experiences, future enhancements, and effective SuiteScript management—essential components of a scalable, high-performing ecommerce site within NetSuite.
