    <p>I have a program that we use to connect our Magento store to our back end Inventory Control system via the API. Currently what it does is query the Magento API for all orders in Pending status, inserts them into the back end system, then sets their status to Processing in Magento. Due to limitations on our Inventory system, we can only insert a limited number of orders at a time. We control this by running the whole process through an if loop as shown below (FYI, code has been edited down to show only the key parts of this problem):</p> <pre><code>//The maximum number of orders to download $iMaxCount = 10 ; try { $proxy = new SoapClient($wsdl_url); } catch (Exception $e) { echo 'Caught exception: ', $e-&gt;getMessage(), "\n"; } $sessionId = $proxy-&gt;login($login, $password); //fetch the pending orders from the site $field = array(array('status'=&gt;array( 'pending') )); $arr = $proxy-&gt;call($sessionId, 'sales_order.list', $field); $iCnt = 0; foreach($arr as $key =&gt; $value){ //only down up to the max count if ($iCnt &lt; $iMaxCount) { [... Do the updating and insertion part of the program ...] $iCnt++; } //End of looping through orders </code></pre> <p>The obvious downfall of doing it this way is I still have to pull all Pending orders even though I am going to be working with only 10 of them. i.e. If I have 200 pending orders, the API returns all 200 of them, processes 10, then skips the rest. What I want to do is modify the filter of the API call to pull only 10 orders at a time of status Processing. This would allow me to remove the if loop overhead and make the program run more efficiently because it only gets the data it needs. </p> <p>Does anyone know how to apply that type of filter? Everything I have seen suggest you can only do this if you know the order numbers and set limits based on that. Thanks for your help!!!</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
