If you are using MyCommerce as an eCommerce provider, QLM integrates seamlessly with MyCommerce's ordering system. 

When an order is placed, the QLM / MyCommerce integration will perform the following:

  • MyCommerce invokes QLM during the ordering process and sends it the order information
  • QLM publishes the customer's information to the QLM database
  • QLM creates the license keys based on the order
  • QLM optionally emails the customer the license key (s)
  • The license keys are configured to expire when the subscription expires

When a subscription is successfully renewed:

  • MyCommerce invokes QLM and sends it the renewal information
  • QLM updates the expiry date of the license
  • The protected software application communicates with the license server and applies the new expiry date to the client system.

 

Enabling MyCommerce/Shareit in QLM

  • Launch the QLM Management Console
  • Go to the Manage Keys tab
  • Click 3rd Party Extensions
  • Click Shareit
  • Check the "Enabled" checkbox
  • Set a user/password
  • Click Ok

Mapping the MyCommerce product to a QLM Product

To map your MyCommerce product to a QLM product, you must create a QLM Server Property as follows:

  • Launch the QLM Management Console
  • Go to the Manage Keys tab
  • Click Sites then select your site
  • Go to the Server Properties tab
  • Click the + sign on the right-hand side to add a new custom server property
  • Set the property name to: shareit_<Shareit Product ID>. For example, if your MyCommerce Product ID is 300810470, set the name to: shareit_300810470
  • Set the value of the property to (modify the values to correspond to your own product): &is_productid=1&is_majorversion=1&is_minorversion=0&is_productname=MyProduct&is_emailtemplate=1. New Order
  • For more information about the supported arguments, refer to this article.

  • Click Save

Testing a purchase

  • Login to your MyCommerce control panel
  • Click Products / Manage Products / Edit 
  • Select the product to test
  • Click "Test Order" then Next
  • Complete the order
  • Once the order is processed a license key should be created and displayed in the order confirmation window.
  • Additionally, if you selected an email template, an email will be sent to the customer. To configure QLM to send emails, refer to this article.

When the subscription is renewed, MyCommerce will automatically connect to the QLM License Server and extend the expiry date of the license by the required period.

 

InApp Purchases

You can configure the QLM License Wizard to perform an InApp purchase with MyCommerce.

The InApp purchase is processed via an embedded browser in the QLM License Wizard. At the end of the purchase process, the Activation key is automatically created and displayed in the wizard for the user to activate.

To configure the InApp purchase process:
