Step 8: Product Configuration

All Magento product SKUs will need to be mapped to Digital River. For testing purposes only, you can assign a single Digital River SKU to any Magento demo product to allow for full end-to-end testing on your Magento demo store: “123123”. Clients will need to share all their SKU values with Digital River in order for Digital River to configure our payment gateway.

Note: For all Digital River-initiated demo instances, any Magento product with SKU set to “123123” will work for end-to-end checkout.

Step 9: Product Support

Static Bundles are not supported via the Digital River extension due to Digital River’s requirement, as Seller of Record/Merchant of Record, to tax each line-item within the bundle.

Note: Dynamic bundles are supported because the tax is calculated for each item in the bundle. Static bundles sum the price of each line-item to a top-level container product, which prevents Digital River’s extension from ensuring the proper tax is calculated at an individual line item level.

Step 10: Configure Tax Settings

For each product clients will need to define the following values prior to launching a live storefront. These values will be imported into the Digital River tax application to ensure proper taxation.

Note: Every product sold via the Digital River extension will be considered Taxable Goods in the Magento production configuration screen.
