Configuring the cookie for procurement

WebSphere Commerce uses a generated encrypted cookie to bind the session between the Punch-out setup phase where the requisitioning user's (if the user is new) authentication and registration is performed, and the catalog shopping phase where the procurement system launches a new browser window for the requisitioning user.
There are three configurable parameters related to this cookie:

To configure these parameters, do the following:

  1. Change the  MessagingExtensions element in the instance configuration XML file to the following:
  2. <MessagingExtensions display="false">
    <SupplierCookie maxCount="1000"
    CleanInterval="5"
    ExpiryTime="100" />
    </MessagingExtensions>
    
  3. Restart the instance to apply the changes.

Note: This information cannot be found in the Configuration Management GUI. You must manually edit the information in the instance configuration XML file and then restart the instance to apply the changes.
