Set up an online channel

This article describes how to create a new online channel in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Commerce.

Dynamics 365 Commerce supports multiple retail channels. These retail channels include online stores, call centers, and retail stores (also known as brick-and-mortar stores). Online stores give customers the option of purchasing products from the retailer's online store in addition to its retail stores.

To create an online store in Commerce, you must first create an online channel. Before you create a new online channel, ensure that you have completed the Channel set up prerequisites.

Before you can create a new site, at least one online store must be created in Commerce. For more information, see Create an e-Commerce site.

Create and configure a new online channel

To create and configure a new online channel, follow these steps.

  1. In the navigation pane, go to Modules > Channels > Online Stores.
  2. On the action pane, select New.
  3. In the Name field, provide a name for the new channel.
  4. In the Legal entity drop-down, enter the appropriate legal entity.
  5. In the Warehouse drop-down, enter the appropriate warehouse.

  7. In the Currency field, select the appropriate currency.
  8. In the Default customer field, provide a valid default customer.

Note

You should be wary of the implications of changing the warehouse of a running online channel. E-commerce site carts that haven't yet been checked out (unless they are modified) will still be fulfilled from the old warehouse, which will impact the inventory availability calculation.

Assign the channel to a Commerce Scale Unit

Your new channel must be assigned to a Commerce Scale Unit. For instructions, see Configure channels to use Commerce Scale Unit.

Set up languages

If your e-Commerce site will support multiple languages, expand the Languages section, and add additional languages as needed.

Set up payment account

From within the Payment account section, you can add a third-party payment provider. For information on setting up an Adyen payment connector, see Dynamics 365 Payment Connector for Adyen.

Additional channel setup

Additional tasks that are required for online channel setup include setting up payment methods, modes of delivery, and the fulfillment group assignment.
