Extend the OrderStatus
That's a string, you can change to any name, but in commerce manager it will fall to in progress.

Hi Khan
Thank you for your replay.
Yes, I know about it and if I set new status as string value I can break workflows. But I am interested EPi have a legal way expanding this functionality or not.
I think no.
Best regards

Hi,
Unfortunately no, .NET just does not allow extending enum - and we have nothing out of box to support extra OrderStatus(es), at least for now. We, however, will look into this to see if we can do something.

Hi Quan Mai.
Thank you for your replay.
Probably you can give a advice. Which way should we use to set our status? set manually string value or add for example a flag?
Best regards

Hi,
I'm not sure I understand your question, but generally you should use OrderStatusManager methods to handle statuses of Shipment and Order. Did you mean the custom statuses?

It's pretty tricky. The view is defined by Orders-List.xml, and that specific column is defined by OrderStatusTemplate. OrderStatusTemplate uses OrderStatusManager internally and will fall back to InProgress if the Status value is not a valid one.
So if you want to show your custom status there, you have to create your own OrderStatusTemplate.ascx control, which accepts custom Status value, then change Orders-List.xml to use your custom control.

Hi.
The purchase order can be one of next statuses: InProgress, Cancelled, Completed etc
How can I add a new status to this list? Maybe does Epi not support it?
