Parameters

    Specifies the serialized version of the new customer record.

  • originatingSearchControl

    Flag that indicates if this is a new customer

Remarks

This control must implement the IContextManager interface.

The customer object allows developers to create their own customer record type and process that record type within the desktop. The developer is required to handle serialization of the customer record into the serialized customer object parameter of the constructor.

Customer ID - The customer id is utilized by the session manager to identify a given session’s customer object. In the situation where customer search request is raised, this is the key element used to determine if the customer attached to the inbound search request is the same as a customer that is attached to a given session.

Originating Search Control - In this constructor, the originating search control is the name of the control that implements the ICustomerSearch interface AND also implements the IContextManager interface.
