About
- Purpose: Record of messages sent/received about this order
- Notes: This subsystem should probably be rethought at some point when everything else is working -- possibly should be part of the order event log, along with ord_pull
- Relates to: core_orders, ord_pkgs, ord_msg_media
- History:
- 2009-07-09 Adapted from MS Access
- 2009-07-10 Changed "Notes" from VARCHAR(255) to MEDIUMTEXT
- Fields:
- TxtFrom (was "From")
- TxtTo (was "To")
- TxtRe (was "Subject")
- doRelay: does message need to be sent to a third party? (this has a specific meaning, but if I can't remember/reconstruct what it was... are any records using it?)
- WhenRelayed should only ever be set if doRelay is TRUE
- Notes may contain the substance of the message record, because sometimes it's more about what happened than about a single message being transferred
- Future:
- Possibly message relaying should be handled by a separate app, but if not it needs to be rethought a bit:
- ord_msg_media should probably include a flag to indicate if a given medium (method?) needs human relaying (NO = automatic, like email)
- Is WhenRelayed basically the mirror of WhenCreated, just in the other direction? Or can they both have meaning in the same context?
- Possibly message relaying should be handled by a separate app, but if not it needs to be rethought a bit:
