Purchasing Products from the Sales Catalog

IBS 2.7 > Student Functions

A video tutorial is available on this topic. Select Purchasing Products from the Sales Catalog from the IBS Help Page, or click here to view it.

After entering the campus of a Group, you will see a link to its Sales Catalog in the sidebar menu under Students > Shop. The sales catalog is a list of all the items that are currently available for students in a Group to purchase.

Viewing the Sales Catalog

By default, the sales catalog is displayed in a “collapsed” view, that is, only course-level information is displayed. To see additional information, such as the sales item(s) that are available for a particular course, you must expand the view. You may click on the plus sign (+) next to the course name to expand the entry for a single course, or click Expand All at the top of the table to expand all entries in the table. To collapse a single entry, click the minus sign (-) next to the course name; to collapse the entire table, click Collapse All.

When you expand an entry in the sales catalog, you will see:

• The sales item(s) that are currently available for sale for each course.
• The full price of the item, as well as your price (that is, the result of applying your country factor and financial aid to the full price).
• An Action column. If you have already purchased the item, this will be indicated in the Action column. Otherwise, you may purchase the item by clicking Add to cart.
• For facilitated (ONFAC) classes, you will see additional information, such as the enrollment deadline and how many seats are still available in the class. In some facilitated classes, the facilitator must approve your enrollment before you can complete your purchase. If that is the case, the Action for that item will be Request Enrollment. Clicking this link sends a message to the facilitator. When your enrollment is approved, you will be notified in the IBS notice system. You should then return to this Sales Catalog page to complete your purchase and enrollment.

Checkout procedure

When you have selected the item(s) you want to purchase, they will appear in your shopping cart. To continue with the checkout procedure, click the shopping cart link in the upper right corner of the Sales Catalog page.

• Review your cart to make sure all items are correct.
• If you need to remove an item from your cart, click Remove.
• If you want to place additional items in your cart, click Continue Shopping

 When your cart is correct, click Continue Checkout.

Next, you will enter your credit card information and billing address. An estimate of your total payment, in US dollars, is displayed. This estimate includes the price of the items you are purchasing, as well as the fee charged by the payment vendor (PayPal) for the transaction. Depending on your currency and the country of your billing address, additional fees may appear on your credit card statement.

When you are ready to complete your purchase, click Make Payment. A summary of your transaction will appear. You may click Click here to check your orders to go to My Courses, where you may review your orders and purchases, request a refund, or begin studying the courses you have purchased.
