A company that is a shoe-producer is doing Salesforce B2C Commerce implementation. In their Enterprise Resource Warning (ERP) system, the products are marked as being one of three types: boots, sandals, and sneakers. The business requirements based on the type are:
* The messaging on Product Detail page is different
* Customers are able to filler their Product Search Results
The customer's operations team asks about the format in which to send this value in the catalog.
Which data type should the Architect specify for this attribute In the Data Mapping document?
For the shoe producer implementing Salesforce B2C Commerce, the attribute used to specify the type of shoes (boots, sandals, sneakers) should be set as a single selectable value, hence the use of an enum-of-string type. This data type allows for the selection of one option from a predefined list, which is ideal for cases where each product can only be categorized into one type. This ensures that data integrity is maintained while providing clear and distinct categorization that can easily be used for filtering on the Product Search Results page and for customized messaging on the Product Detail page.
