       1.      Log on to Extended Configuration Management (XCM) at http://<servername:port>/<b2c or b2b>/admin/xcm/init.do.

       2.      Navigate to Start ® Components ®Customer ® basket ®<the basket component configuration assigned to your application configuration> and adjust the following parameters:

Parameter	Description
lineItemIncrement	This parameter defines the increment of line item numbers. The default setting is 10. So line item numbers will therefore 10, 20, 30, and so on. If you change the value to 100, the line item numbers will be 100, 200, 300, and so on.  This parameter is only relevant if the base configuration of your component configuration is “javabasket”.
usedatabaseBasket	Choose the value True to enable the possibility of recovering lost shopping baskets, for example due to session expiry. If you enable this recovery functionality the shopping basket will be written to the SAP Web AS Java 7.00 database during a Web session instead of just being kept in the main memory. If the session expires and the shopping basket is lost it will automatically be recovered the next time the user logs on to the Web shop. The function works in two ways: ●      Using cookies if the user was not logged on when maintaining the shopping basket. ●      Via User logon ID if the user was logged on the Web shop when maintaining the shopping basket.  This parameter is only relevant for a B2C Web shop scenario.  Enabling this functionality may increase the performance hardware requirements.
usedatabaseTemplate	Choose True to enable the use of Order templates in ERP E-Commerce. In addition you have to enable the use of order templates in the Shop Management application. If both settings are made order templates will be saved to and read from the SAP Web AS Java 7.00 server.  The XCM setting is not necessary in CRM Web Channel as there the order templates are written to the CRM database.
