Type Alias: RecalculateCart()

RecalculateCart = (cartId, companyId?, priceType?, priceListGroup?, embedTemplateId?) => Promise<RecalculateCartResponse>

Function

Recalculates all prices in the cart based on specified pricing parameters.

This method updates all item prices in the cart according to the provided pricing context, which can include company-specific pricing, price types (cost, retail, sale), price list groups, and template-specific pricing rules. It's essential for ensuring accurate pricing when the pricing context changes during the shopping process.

Common scenarios for recalculation include:

  • When a salesperson switches the company they're ordering on behalf of
  • When changing between price types (e.g., from retail to wholesale pricing)
  • When specific discount programs or price lists are applied
  • When the embedded template context changes, affecting pricing rules

The method returns updated cart items with recalculated prices and any applicable price modifiers (discounts, surcharges, etc.).
