ordergegevensobject

Ordergegevensobject is a data object used in software systems to represent the essential information about an order. It serves as a domain object or data transfer object that aggregates the data needed to process, fulfill, and track an order across modules such as sales, invoicing, inventory, and logistics. The object provides a stable interface for creating, validating, persisting, and exchanging order information between services.

Typical contents of an ordergegevensobject include: a unique order identifier, reference to the customer (customerId or an embedded customer object), orderDate, and orderStatus. It also contains financial and tax data such as currency, totalAmount, line items with product identifiers, quantities, unit prices, and line totals. Address information for shipping and billing, shipping method and costs, payment information (often tokenized or masked for security), as well as discounts, promotions, taxes, and any additional fees. Many implementations also store delivery notes, shipment details, and a history of status changes.

In design terms, the ordergegevensobject is usually part of an order aggregate or a data transfer object used by APIs. It often maps to database structures like an Order table with related OrderLine items and related customer records. Lifecycle considerations include creation at checkout, validation of business rules, state transitions (for example, New, Confirmed, Paid, Shipped, Delivered, Canceled), and idempotent handling to prevent duplicate processing. Security and privacy considerations are important, particularly for payment data and personal information in compliance with applicable regulations.
