Cards (external production) - Manage option to queue card orders

This article describes how to manage the option to queue a card order in the use cases Order card (external production) and Order multiple cards in a batch order (external production) in the Cards add-on External production package. A script in Identity Manager Admin is used to manage the options.

See a list of all available options in the Smart ID use cases for the Cards add-on External production here: Cards add-on External production - Options.

Prerequisites

Manage the option to queue card orders

In Identity Manager Admin, go to Home > Scripts.
Select the script CardsAddonExtProdScriptOptions.
In the script, go to the CardsAddonExtProdOrderQueue variable, see the example. By default it is set to false, which means that the card order will be ordered directly (single order).

Example:

/* Defines if card orders are queued for batch sync(bulk) or ordered directly(single). Possible options: * true - Card orders are queued for batch sync. * false(default) - Card orders are ordered directly. */ CardsAddonExtProdOrderQueue = false
To change to batch sync (bulk) order, set CardsAddonExtProdOrderQueue to true.
Click Save in the upper left corner to save the updated script (or exit without saving if there are no updates).

Manage the option to queue card orders done through batch order

In Identity Manager Admin, go to Home > Scripts.
Select the script CardsAddonExtProdScriptOptions.
In the script, go to the CardsAddonExtProdBatchOrderQueue variable, see the example. By default it is set to false, which means that the card orders will be ordered directly (single order).

Example:

/* Defines if card orders done through batch order are queued for batch sync(bulk) or ordered directly(single). Possible options: * true - Card orders are queued for batch sync. * false(default) - Card orders are ordered directly. */ CardsAddonExtProdBatchOrderQueue = false
To change to batch sync (bulk) order, set CardsAddonExtProdBatchOrderQueue to true.
Click Save in the upper left corner to save the updated script (or exit without saving if there are no updates).
