Order Form Sample–Part 25

The calculation will analyze Order ID and current Freight value:

If the order total is greater than $100, then Freight will be $19.95 flat.
Otherwise, Freight is $3.95.

The Order Form page will allow overriding the Freight value.

In the Project Explorer, double-click on Orders / Fields / Freight (Decimal) field node.

Freight field node selected in Orders controller of the Project Explorer.

Change the Context Fields:

Property New Value
Context Fields OrderDetails,Freight

Press OK to save.

If you implemented an SQL Business Rule to calculate Subtotal and Total, continue reading the next section. If you implemented the C# / Visual Basic Business rule, skip the next section. You may also use JavaScript – skip the next two sections.

SQL Business Rule

In the Project Explorer, double-click on Orders / Business Rules / Calculate (Sql / Execute) node.

Calculate SQL Business Rule in Orders controller of Project Explorer.

Append the script:

Property New Value
Script
select @Subtotal = sum(unitprice * quantity * (1 - discount)) 
from [Order Details] 
where OrderID = @OrderID

set @Total = @Subtotal + @Freight

if (@Freight is not null or @Freight = 0 
    or @Freight = 3.95 or @Freight = 19.95)
begin
    if (@Total > 100)
        set @Freight = 19.95
    else 
        set @Freight = 3.95
end

Press OK to save.

Code Business Rule

Right-click on Orders / Business Rules / Calculate (Code / Execute) node, and select Edit Rule in Visual Studio.

Edit Rule in Visual Studio context menu option for a Calculate code business rule.

Append the following code.

C#:

using System;
using MyCompany.Data;

namespace MyCompany.Rules
{
    public partial class OrdersBusinessRules : MyCompany.Data.BusinessRules
    {

        [Rule("r101")]
        public void r101Implementation(
                    int? orderID,
                    string customerID,
                    string customerCompanyName,
                    int? employeeID,
                    string employeeLastName,
                    DateTime? orderDate,
                    DateTime? requiredDate,
                    DateTime? shippedDate,
                    int? shipVia,
                    string shipViaCompanyName,
                    decimal? freight,
                    string shipName,
                    string shipAddress,
                    string shipCity,
                    string shipRegion,
                    string shipPostalCode,
                    string shipCountry,
                    decimal? subtotal)
        {
            object total = null;
            using (SqlText calc = new SqlText(@"select sum(unitprice * 
                    quantity * (1 - discount)) from 
                    [Order Details] where OrderID= @OrderID"))
            {
                calc.AddParameter("@OrderID", orderID);
                total = calc.ExecuteScalar();
            }

            if (DBNull.Value.Equals(total))
            {
                UpdateFieldValue("Subtotal", 0);
                UpdateFieldValue("Total", 0);
            }
            else
            {
                UpdateFieldValue("Subtotal", Convert.ToDecimal(total));
                UpdateFieldValue("Total", Convert.ToDecimal(total) + freight);
            }

            if (!freight.HasValue || freight.Value == 0 ||
            freight.Value == 3.95m || freight.Value == 19.95m)
                if (Convert.ToDecimal(total) > 100)
                    UpdateFieldValue("Freight", 19.95);
                else
                    UpdateFieldValue("Freight", 3.95);
        }
    }

JavaScript Business Rule

Double-click on Orders / Business Rules / Calculate (JavaScript / After) node.

Calculate JavaScript Business Rule in Orders controller of Project Explorer.

Append the following:

Property New Value
Script
[Total] = [Subtotal] + [Freight];


if ([Freight] || [Freight] == 0 || 
    [Freight] == 3.95 || [Freight] == 19.95)
{
    if ([Total] > 100)
    {
        [Freight] = 19.95;
    }
    else 
    {
        [Freight] = 3.95;
    }
}

Press OK to save.

Viewing the Results

On the toolbar, press Browse. Edit an order, and change the Freight to “0”. When you tab away from the field, the freight will be recalculated.

When Freight is cleared and Total is below $100, freight is calculated to be $3.95.

If you change the order details so that the Subtotal is greater than $100, you will see Freight be recalculated to $19.95.

When Freight is cleared and Total is above $100, freight is calculated to be $19.95.
