Use the ApprovedDroplet servlet bean to retrieve all orders that have been approved and/or rejected by a given approver. ApprovedDroplet queries the order repository and returns all orders that have the approver’s profile ID in the approverIds property.
ApprovedDroplet takes the following input parameters:
approverid: the ID of the current user profile; the approver. This parameter is required.startIndex: The index of the first order to return. IfstartIndexis null, then it defaults to 0. This parameter is optional and typically is used to break large result sets into manageable pieces.numOrders: The number of orders to return on the query. This parameter is optional, and typically is used to break large result sets into manageable pieces.
ApprovedDroplet sets the following output parameters:
result: The array ofOrderobjects.count: The number ofOrderobjects in theresultoutput parameter.totalCount: The total number ofOrderobjects that satisfied the criteria.nextIndex: The index of the first order in the next set of results. IfstartIndexornumOrderswas null, then this parameter will also be null.previousIndex: The index of the first order in the previous set of results. IfstartIndexornumOrderswas null, then this parameter will also be null.nextIndexandpreviousIndexallow the user to cycle back and forth between result sets.startRange: The 1-based index of the firstOrderin the set of results.endRange: The 1-based index of the lastOrderin the set of results.errorMsg: The error message to display to the user if an error occurs.
It renders the following open parameters (oparams):
output: Thisoparamrenders the array ofOrderobjects set in theresultoutput parameter.empty: Theoparamrendered if there are no orders that have been approved and/or rejected by the current user.error: Theoparamrendered if an error occurs.
Note: The ApprovedDroplet servlet bean has a security feature that allows the current user, the approver, to view only the orders of customers for whom he or she is allowed to approve orders. This feature is enabled by default. To disable the feature, set the enableSecurity property to false.
The following JSP example retrieves from the repository the orders that have been approved and/or rejected by the current user, an approver, and lists each order’s repository ID on the page.
