Define a Shopping Cart Layout with Actions Report

With some tasks, you may want to add a link to a message sent to a user that contains data too large for a message, for example, a list of search items with abstracts and then a link to a detailed list of those search items. This topic describes how to define a shopping cart layout report that can also be defined with action tasks.
The shopping cart layout with actions report type can be displayed to an end-user when the URL for this report type is clicked in a message. In the following illustration, the message sent to the end-user contains a link to the shopping cart layout with actions report called View Items. The message contains an abbreviated list of search results.

When the user clicks the link in the message, a shopping cart layout with actions report is displayed with a detailed list of search results with a shopping cart header, optional shopping cart description, and a header row as shown in the following illustration for the View Items report as a list of selectable items to add to a shopping cart.
