What is a Basket?

A basket is the virtual container on a Web site that holds the products and services that a customer wants to purchase. The customer selects the products and services from a catalog on a commerce Web site.

In earlier versions of Commerce Server 2009, customers could only have one basket on the site. In Commerce Server 2009, customers can store and retrieve multiple baskets. Developers can enable this feature by setting the name field on the basket, thereby enabling search through the user ID or by both user ID and the basket name.
