orders Element
The orders element in the Web.config file describes the details of the Orders System configuration. The orders element is optional. However, if you include the orders element in the Web.config file, you must also include certain elements within the orders element. The required elements are identified later in this topic.
Put the orders element within the CommerceServer element.
The following table lists the attributes of the orders element.

Note
If you omit the orders element, the default values for the addressMap element will be used to map the properties of an address in the Profiles System to the properties of an OrderAddress object in the Orders System. However, if you include the orders element but omit the addressMap element within the orders element, then no address profile properties will be mapped to an OrderAddress object. For more information about the default values for the addressMap element, see addressMap Element.
Note
To make the Orders Web service behave the same as the application, the orders element and all of its attributes and sub-elements must be the same in both the Web.config file for the Orders Web service and the Web.config file for the application.
