Adding a Site Term to a Profile Definition
You can use the Profiles resource to add a site term to a profile definition. You can also perform this task using the Profile Designer module in Commerce Server Business Desk. For more information, see Adding a Site Term to a Profile Definition.
When you assign a site term to a profile property, users on your Web site get a drop-down list of the site term values for the property. The selection a user makes from the site term drop-down list on your Web site is stored in the profile for that user as a type string.
