'Status' field on RequestHistory

Hi Sri,

The OrderState column on PersonWantsOrg simply tells you the status of the order itself (it has a few other values like canceled). If you have provisioning actions which need to run off the back of it, you can use PWOState or make your own column

Orderstate is decoupled from any business logic that runs off the PWO. Hence that column just tells the state of the request itself, not the state of any actions which get triggered from the request. IF you need the OrderState to reflect the status of the business logic also, your approval WF should not finish until the business logic also has finished, and in this case the state will remain in OrderProduct (equivalent to "Order under process").

Hope that helps

Thanks kinshaha. Are there default values that OrderState can hold? I only see assigned, aborted and unsubscribed. Is this all we get OOB?

Hi Srivalli,

If you look at the properties of the column OrderState, in Designer, you will see the list of permitted values:
