For this week, I was able to implement some new features and fix bugs in the History View. Started by separating the View and ViewModel from ItemView and ItemViewModel respectively. Successfully displaying it as a separate tab in ItemView.
Next, I made the barcode disabled, along with its checkbox, to prevent any changes from being made. Discovered that the application was making pointless calls to the API even when it was not being used, this issue was fixed. Moreover, I implemented another feature that gives users an option to view the item’s history in ascending or descending date format. To achieve this I had to make changes to both the API and UI, the UI now contains a checkbox which on checking/unchecking will make separate API calls to display data in different date order. Furthermore, I was able to provide users with the ability to alter the number of rows displayed per page.
Finally, I started brainstorming on a new task which involves comparing and computing old and new data for warehouses. I discovered that I needed to make a separate API call to get the final item quantity. I was able to make the API call in such a way that the entire data set loaded at the same time. Adding logic to determine existing item quantity still remains.
