Simplify API's to handle carts, OrderGroups, OrderForms etc.
Hi,
Didn't we provide OrderContext.GetPurchaseOrderById(purchaseOrderId) and OrderContext.LoadByCustomerAndOrderGroupId(customerId, orderGroupdId)? I think while it's not perfect, but it's quite enough for daily use.
In another node, ICartRepository is a good idea of making our API:s inline with each other. We might consider that in the future.
Regards.

Yes, for PurchaseOrders you are absolutely right. But I needed the same for carts.
Carts should be retrievable from ICartRepository by:
- OrderGroupID : Cart
- OrderFormID : Cart
- Customer-ID + Name : Cart
- Customer-ID : IEnumerable
Purchase orders from IOrderRepository by:
- OrderGroupID : PurchaseOrder
- OrderFormID : PurchaseOrder
- CustomerID : IEnumerable
- From-CreatedDate + to-CreatedDate : IEnumerable
- Status + From-CreatedDate + to-CreatedDate : IEnumerable

This thread is locked and should be used for reference only.
...one should simply be able to retrieve a specific cart by either OrderFormId or OrderGroupId (or both?). At the moment, you need things like metadata context, user-ID, cart name etc. As these carts are retrievable like this, but this seems horribly complicated for such a menial task.
What about something nice, like an ICartRepository with methods like GetCart(int orderFormId) or GetCart(int orderGroupId). This would tremendously improve how cart handling works.
