GetPODStatusCode

Function GetPODStatusCode(const aPODStatus : Variant) : Variant;

Example​

procedure ScriptEvent(var Value: variant);
begin
  Value := GetPODStatusCode(1); // 'Delivered'
end;

Usage​

GetPODStatusCode converts a Velox POD status number to its canonical code.

Parameters and result

ItemTypeDescription
aPODStatusVariant, constNumeric POD status. Supply one of the listed integral values in a compatible Variant.
ResultVariantCanonical code string in a Variant, or Null for a null or unrecognized value.

Behaviour and edge cases

  • With Velox's default loose NullEqualityRule, Null follows the explicit null branch. The rule is shared across the Velox process; strict or error settings can alter or break that comparison.
  • Unknown comparable values return Null; they do not raise a domain-specific error.
  • Use the listed integral values. Do not rely on Variant coercion from strings, floating-point values or booleans.
  • Arrays, interfaces and other incompatible Variant values can raise comparison or ordinal-conversion errors, which propagate.
  • Identical numbers or labels used by another status/type family do not make the domains interchangeable. Use the function for the field's actual semantic family.

Additional Technical Info​

GetPODStatusCode converts a numeric POD status to the canonical Velox code. Its complete mapping is compiled into the product and is not read from customer configuration.

Implementation

The source first evaluates aPODStatus = Null, then uses a case over the listed constants. A recognized value returns its literal code and the else branch returns Null. It performs no database query or configurable alias lookup.

Side effects, errors and performance

For supported input the function is pure, performs no I/O and runs over a small fixed mapping. Variant comparison/conversion failures propagate.
