3 years ago The question we are discussing is that in addition to expiring the Cart #34, do we also need to expire Cart Items #35 and if so, how does that impact Abandoned Carts #43 ?

3 years ago Cart items have a required expires_at with a default of 3 months. When a cart item is created from a Sellable, the sellable has the ability to override the default via the CartItemInterface::setExpiresAt(...) method. Expiring an item does not remove it from the cart.
Cart expiration is determined dynamically as the min expiration for any item it contains.
When fetching a users active cart, carts with expired items are excluded. This means that once a cart has expired items, a new, empty cart will be created. This will leave the prior cart and its items in tact for abandon cart targeting.

All Carts will expire. There is an expired_at field that allows users to have multiple old carts and allows Bookings to expire carts. Required and defaults to 3 months from created_at datetime. The Booking package will update and set the expired_at field to 10 minutes from the last time a booking was added as a cart item.
