Which Function Copies Basket Items to Order Tables?

[jambazi]

I need to modify the function that copies basket items to order. For instance when a customer orders, it gets added to the session then once they login its added to the session and customer basket table. When the customer completes the order, the order details are copied from the basket table to the orders table. I need to know which files to modify when the order is being created from the session. Thanks

What exactly are you trying to modify? Why?

I am working on a new shopping cart and I added a new table that references items in the cart. Its for a online business card design shopping cart. So a user can design their business card. The design tool I have developed allows users to create a nice graphic with layers and it uses GD library & JQuery - Similar to Vistaprint.com

I need to copy these layers for each product in the cart to the a new table orders_canvas_layers but I cant find where zencart gets the products from the customers basket table and copies them to the order tables then deletes them from the customers basket... Hope it makes sense.

I just posted http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?p=1043378 which might be related to your questions. You might find some of the code references useful, at least.

The products aren't copied from teh basket table to the order table. The products are known about in the cart object (which reads from the TABLE_CUSTOMERS_BASKET table), and then the order object takes the cart products in checkout_confirmation/header_php.php:

$order = new order;

The order constructor, when passed no arguments, calls $this->cart() which causes it to initialise its list of products from the current shopping cart. This may include TABLE_CUSTOMERS_BASKET items or be entirely in-memory.

I think the deletion of basket contents is done in the order processing page, whose modules/pages/checkout_process/header_php.php code clears out the basket passing true, which causes it to delete from TABLE_CUSTOMERS_BASKET.

  $_SESSION['cart']->reset(true);
