  • Line 1: A log statement to see if this customer has placed any orders. A good thing to know, yes?
  • Line 2: create a flag variable and set it to false.
  • Line 4: I need a variable to check the payment dates against. So initialize a date variable. At first, it points to 'now'.
  • Line 5: move the date variable back 7 days
  • Line 14: If the payment date was within the last seven days, set the flag variable to true. (Could probably break out of the for-loop here...)
  • Line 20: If they have ordered, direct them to the 'DidOrder' step, otherwise, send them to the 'DidNotOrder' step.
Info

The code block above makes liberal use of the $logger.log() function. This will print out any velocity object. This is an invaluable tool for developing logic blocks. It won't hurt to keep it in place for production runs.
