    Re: Release 8 update 9 Custom fields question

    A custom basket field automatically gets converted to a custom order field when an order is placed as long as the custom basket field code and the custom order field code are the same.

    You don't need the write_order tag, it should just happen automatically.

      Followup: It seems the data is being written as expected, but I was looking at the Legacy Order Processing screen | Custom Fields tab. On that screen the data is not correctly displayed. I'm adding the field to emails now.

        Ok you lost me there. I see the command on the documentation page but In the admin, I don't see a way to add a custom "Basket" field.

        Also on the Order Contents tab of the item cmp-cssui-invc-order, you might want to include the ability to select the order custom fields instead (with the custom product fields) of using the Read_Order() function.

        I added the new field to the email templates assigning the custom fields item and using:
        Code:
        <mvt:item name="customfields" param="Read_Order( l.settings:order:id, 'instructions', l.settings:customfields )" />
        <mvt:if expr="l.settings:customfields:instructions">
            <p>&mvt:customfields:instructions;</p>
        </mvt:if>
