Usage
Parameters
OrderIds: List of OrderIds for which the presence of IOSS-related extended properties needs to be checked.
Execution
The macro is executed within a rules engine environment, either scheduled to run at specific intervals or triggered by predefined events.
It takes the list of OrderIds as input and processes each order sequentially.
For each order, it checks for the presence of IOSS-related extended properties and generates a note accordingly.
The note is then saved for the corresponding order.
Outcome
Orders with relevant IOSS-related extended properties have notes appended to them, providing additional context or information for further processing.
The macro enhances the efficiency of order management processes by automatically adding notes based on specific criteria, reducing manual effort and potential oversights.
