Hi ,  
I am trying to extend a field for the customer orders and add more filter for order which are based on OrderLineItems. Filter or field would be based on OrderLineItems properties and Catalogue Properties  
e.g- if we have “Product A” in “OrderLineItems” then based on its properties and its catalogue property. we have to extend field and apply the filter.  
So Can you suggest what would be the best way to implement this?

The best way to implement this is using Virto Commerce Native Extensibility Framework.

1. Read [Extensibility - Overview](https://docs.virtocommerce.org/new/dev_docs/Extensibility/overview/#native-extensions)
2. You will need to create a new extension module and then based on your requirements. For example, you can extend default [vc-module-catalog/ProductDocumentBuilder.cs](https://github.com/VirtoCommerce/vc-module-catalog/blob/dev/src/VirtoCommerce.CatalogModule.Data/Search/Indexing/ProductDocumentBuilder.cs#L83) with new attributes and used them as filters.
3. Here you can find sample code of some common extensions: [vc-module-catalog/samples/VirtoCommerce.CatalogModule2.Web](https://github.com/VirtoCommerce/vc-module-catalog/tree/dev/samples/VirtoCommerce.CatalogModule2.Web)

Order Filter blade built with [Extensibility Points - Metaform](https://docs.virtocommerce.org/new/dev_docs/Platform-Manager/Extensibility-Points/metaform/#registering-meta-fields).

So, yes, it is possible to add new options like filter by Category & Products in Customer Orders Advance Filter.

Meta Form definitions:

1. [vc-module-order/filter-detail.js at dev · VirtoCommerce/vc-module-order (github.com)](https://github.com/VirtoCommerce/vc-module-order/blob/dev/src/VirtoCommerce.OrdersModule.Web/Scripts/blades/filter-detail.js#L6)
2. [vc-module-order/order.js at dev · VirtoCommerce/vc-module-order (github.com)](https://github.com/VirtoCommerce/vc-module-order/blob/dev/src/VirtoCommerce.OrdersModule.Web/Scripts/order.js#L430)

And sample my-module-order\MyExtension.OrderModule.Web\Scripts\module.js

```plaintext
angular.module(moduleName, [])
    .run([
....
            metaFormsService.registerMetaFields('orderFilterDetail', [
                {
                    name: 'currency',
                    templateUrl: 'Modules/$(MyExtension.Order)/Scripts/components/currency.html'
                },
                {
                    name: 'sector',
                    templateUrl: 'Modules/$(MyExtension.Order)/Scripts/components/sector.html'
                },
...

```
