VbzCart/docs/tables/shop cart data

About

• OBSOLETE
• Purpose: This is a simple table for retaining customer data entered at check-out time before converting the cart to an order.
• Relates to: parent: shop_cart
• History:
  • 2009-07-24 renamed: shop_cust_data -> shop_cart_data; changed ID_Key -> Type
  • 2009-08-02 removed "ID" field; now using ID_Cart+Type as primary key
  • 2014-11-04 renamed "Type" field to "ID_Type"
  • 2015-01-20 added WhenCrypt field
  • 2019-07-25 this table has been obsolete/unused for months (in dev code)

Fields

• ID_Type: numeric constants are currently defined in Template:L/vbzcart/code.
• WhenCrypt: this is primarily a signal that Val has been encrypted. If it is NULL, then Val is plaintext. This is so we can encrypt sensitive data left in shopping carts.
