Recurring Order
Note:
This feature is provided through the Recurring Order Extension and is not available out of the box. For details, refer to Overview - Recurring Order Extension in the Intershop Knowledge Base.
A recurring order refers to a regular purchase that occurs at a set frequency (e.g., weekly, monthly) and typically requires manual intervention by the customer.
Customers may need to confirm or reorder at these intervals by adding items to their cart or authorizing payment. While a company might automatically generate the order based on the set schedule, the customer retains control over each transaction.
Example: Setting up a recurring order for monthly coffee delivery requires the customer to approve or pay for each subsequent order as it becomes due.
For details on enabling and disabling recurring orders, refer to Managing Recurring Order Preferences.
