CommerceContext object issue

Question

Hi,

I am trying to create order. I write my own code in CS site. It is working fine.

But now I am trying to create an order like this.

I created a webservice, using this webservice only i m trying to createa order. I am consuming this webservice in my page. But when a call method in webservice it is showing error at the line

OrderContext ocx = CommerceContext.Current.OrderSystem;

"Object reference not set to an instance of an object. "

Can any one help me, how can i proceed to create an order in the above mentioned situation?

Thanks in advance!

If you want to access commerce server over HTTP (web services), you are not suppose to use CS runtime objects - instead you should use commerce management API. Check below url for more details.

Hope this helps.
