If left to default settings, what circumstances would have to occur for Magento 1.7 to consider a cart abandoned? Where is the code that makes this determination located?
I know that this is probably set somewhere in the quote, but I can't find it for the life of me.
I've done some Googling, but like so many Magento questions I'm left empty handed. Thanks!
As you probably know the setting is located here:
Admin => system => Configuration => Sales => Checkout => Shopping Cart => Quote Lifetime (days)
This will add the setting to the database (core_config_data table) with path:
checkout/cart/delete_quote_after
This path is used in the code on:
app/code/core/Mage/Sales/Model/Observer.php line 54
So when someone is adding something to a cart it will be updated. When a customer logs in and his cart is there it will be updated. When a cart is not updated for the last 30 days. It will be removed.
Extra information:
In case you wonder when this code is used, It is used by the cronjob of magento.
check: App/code/core/Mage/Sales/etc/config.xml line 1732
<crontab>
<jobs>
<sales_clean_quotes>
<schedule>
<cron_expr>0 0 * * *</cron_expr>
</schedule>
<run>
<model>sales/observer::cleanExpiredQuotes</model>
</run>
</sales_clean_quotes>
Hope this helps.
