We have added a filter on the Customers recordset to this page in the Starting
Point. A shopper logs in as an existing customer on the CheckOutLogIn page, or
registers as a new one on the New User page. These pages either retrieve an
existing customer record or create a new one, and in each case store the
CustomerID as a session variable. Then, on this page (CheckOut), the Customers
recordset is filtered on the CustomerID in the session variable.
To view the Filter Customers on Session Variable Interactions:
1
Open the basement (if not already), right click the Customers recordset and
choose Assigned Interactions (ordered).
2 In the attic, select the Interaction in the Database Miscellaneous category:
Filter Customers with Session variable before page loads
3 Double click the interaction to view its parameters.
In the parameters dialog you can see that the name of the session variable is
CustomerID and the column on which to filter the Customers recordset is
CustomerID. This Interaction ensures the correct record is displayed.
4 Click OK or Cancel to close the Parameters dialog. Then, close the
Interactions Center.
