Use Cases

Registered Customer & Member

When a registered SFCC Customer who is an Omneo Member successfully logs into the SFCC website the Cartridge makes:

  1. REST API calls are made to Omneo to get the member details using the Member ID which is stored as the "omneoResourceID" in a SFCC profile custom attribute.
    If the omneoResourceID does not exist, a call to Get a list of members API using email ID is made. If more than one result is found, then the last result from the JSON response is selected and that Member ID is store to the omneoResourceID field.

  2. The API response returns the Members Reward, Tier and Transaction data as a JSON response. 

  3. Following APIs are triggered for getting Omneo data:
    1. GET Member
    2. GET List of Rewards
    3. GET Reward Balance
    4. GET Transactions

The returned data can be displayed to the customer as shown below in Site Genesis mockup, noting that this would require SFCC UI customisation to suit individual brand requirements.

Member Details

As shown in the Site Genesis mockup example below, the Cartridge inserts a Member Details page to display a summary of the Members Tier data. If Tiers are not implemented in Omneo, the Cartridge will pass null values to this page and the page should be hidden/removed from the website.

Transaction History

As shown in the Site Genesis mockup example below, the Cartridge enables the addition of  Transaction History page to display Omneo Transaction data. Omneo Transactions generally aggregate both in-store POS and eCommerce Transactions (configuration dependent).

The Cartridge will display the following 'Transaction' data via the Omneo Transaction API endpoint if available:

  • Transaction Id
  • Transaction Date
  • Transaction Location
  • Transaction Total

The Cartridge will display the following 'Transaction Line' data via the Omneo Transaction API endpoint if available:

  • Product ID 
  • Quantity
  • Price
  • Product Name
  • Product URL 
  • Product Image URL
  • Product Style
  • Product Colour
  • Product Size

Contact Details Update

Where a Customer updates the fields below in the SFCC website, the Omneo Cartridge will post those updates to the related Omneo Member record:

SFCC Field    Omneo Field   
Firstname First_Name
Lastname Last_Name
Email Email
Address1 Address1
Postal Postcode
City Suburb
State State
Country  Country
Phone Phone

Only default Address updates will be synchronised to Omneo and any Firstname or Lastname associations to an Address update will be excluded.

New Customer Registration

Where a customer registers via the SFCC website:

  1. On successful Customer registration, a REST API call is made to Omneo API  to Get a list of members API using email ID is made. If more than one result is found, then the last result from the JSON response is selected and that Member ID is store to the omneoResourceID field.

  2. If no Member is found then the Cartridge will create the Member record via the Omneo API using the details provided in the Registration page and will write back the Omneo Member data.

Transactions

Checkout

Deployment of the Omneo Cartridge adds a Reward Redemption form widget to checkout the website as shown in the Site Genesis mockup below: 

This form widget will:

  • Pre-populate the Redeem value field with the available amount or the total of items in cart (excluding shipping cost or Gift Voucher purchases), which ever is LOWER, however the shopper can edit the pre-populated amount;
  • On clicking the Redeem button, re-calculate the cart and display the redeem amount in the Cart total section;
  • The total Reward is shown across the checkout pages and order confirmation page;
  • The total reward amount is proportionately distributed based on product line item value. For example:
    • Cart contains Product A = $200 and Product B = $100. 
    • Cart Total = $300
    • Omneo Reward Redemption value = $60
    • Discount applied to Product A = $40 and Product B = $20
  • Price adjustments are applied after order submission, i.e. the shopper can not change the proportion of reward amount

In the event of Checkout Failure such as a declined payment gateway transaction, the Omneo Cartridge will trigger the Reward Refund API. 

Transaction Sync

The Omneo Cartridge does not synchronise SFCC orders to Omneo - this data is orchestrated from the an ERP solution to mitigate against order fulfilment issues that are managed via that system. The Cartridge will add the Member ID ("omneoResourceID") to the SFCC order object.

Existing SFCC Customer Records

When implementing Omneo to an existing SFCC instance, an Omneo Member will not be automatically created from the SFCC Customer record in any scenario. Any implementation will require a one-time batch creation of an Omneo Member record for each of SFCC Customers to facilitate posting as a Member associated transaction.
