Share your Non-Classic Shopping Cart

[Sir_Loin]

Hi Gliders. I am trying to create an app that I can use to take customer orders in a furniture store. With such an app, my team and I can walk around with each customer and add various items into a shopping cart. My problem is: the new/current Glide doesn’t have a shopping cart, and I don’t know how to build one from scratch.

Could you please share your/an app with a good shopping cart? I don’t need to integrate it into any payment options - I just need it to generate a receipt or purchase order.

I would really appreciate your help, Gliders. I’ve been stuck trying to figure this out.

Thank you!

Assuming you have an Items screen, on the entry to the details view of that screen, check if your “current order ID” is empty. If empty, set a unique ID to the “current order ID” column, then show them the details screen. Else just show them the details screen without doing anything. Add a form in…

I discussed this recently. Please let me know if there’s something you want to ask.
