Overview/Description
Oracle Commerce comes with commerce-specific repositories as well as Core Platform repositories extended for commerce. Knowing the structure of commerce catalogs and catalog-related objects is essential to design and build Oracle Commerce applications. In this course, you will learn how product catalogs are conceptually implemented in repositories, the ways in which catalog repository data is displayed on a page, and apply SQL repository configuration skills to Commerce product catalog customizations. This course is one of a series in the Skillsoft learning path that covers the material for the Oracle Commerce Platform Fundamentals for Developers.
