How can site-wide configuration settings be managed in Salesforce Commerce Cloud?

Site-wide configuration settings in Salesforce Commerce Cloud are best managed via the Business Manager. The Business Manager is a robust administration tool that provides a user-friendly interface for configuring various aspects of the Commerce Cloud environment, including site settings, catalog management, user access, and more. It allows administrators to make changes and updates quickly without the need for custom coding or API calls.

Utilizing the Business Manager facilitates easy management of configurations, such as setting up promotions, payment methods, and shipping options. This centralized platform ensures that all modifications can be tracked and managed efficiently, giving the site operators a streamlined approach to oversee site functionality.

While custom scripts can enhance or extend functionality, they are not the primary means of managing configuration settings. API calls can also interact with Commerce Cloud but typically serve other purposes, such as integrating with external services. Salesforce Support is useful for assistance and troubleshooting but is not a tool for direct site configuration. Therefore, the Business Manager remains the definitive resource for site-wide configuration management in Salesforce Commerce Cloud.
