Hi Stephen,

There is a Re-Order button on the Customers Orders screen:

Just be careful though as it copies all the Custom Fields too. What I did was created a subscriber to clear out all the custom fields on a re-order.

Hi Stephen,

In Swift, as of v1.19 (https://github.com/dynamicweb/Swift/releases/tag/v1.19.0) the Reorder uses the Express Buy to validate orderlines prior to adding them to the cart (not copying the custom fields nor address fields like Andrew mentions.

It will check for out of stock/unavailable products, discontinued products and replacement products as well, so you have much more control.

Lots of input.

The short answer is yes.

If you use the customer center (the new one for viewmodels), you can use a customer center command to start the reorder:

https://doc.dynamicweb.com/template-tags/introduction/ecommerce/customer-center-commands

<a class="btn btn-info" href="?CustomerCenterCmd=Reorder&OrderId=@Model.Id">Add order to cart</a>

It will add all the products to cart, and then you can redirect the user to checkout.

Or if you use Swift as Nuno is referring to, you can use express buy. See https://doc.dynamicweb.com/swift/setup-project/other/customer-center#sideNavTitle1-4-2

The reason to get a new cart is that prices can have changed, products discontinued or out of stock, credit limits expired etc. So a validation of the new order usually needs to take place. But you can make a very simplified convert cart to order flow that skips most of the logic in the checkout.
