I have created a solution which uses cookies fairly extensively. A typical example is where an order is placed and line items are then added to that order. The cookie is set upon creation of an order and is then used to populate the Order_Number field in the line items file for each subsequent associated line item placed on that order.

This works fine for a single user but, of course, the problems begin in a multi-user environment where the following happens.....

1. User 1 places order_no ABC (cookie set to ABC).

2. Prior to user 1 picking a line item user 2 places an order_no DEF (Cookie becomes DEF).

3. User 1 then picks line items however as cookie is now DEF they are placed against user 2's order.

I have tested changing one cookie to a token and this seemed to resolve the problem however prior to carrying out the major surgery that will be involved in changing all current cookies to tokens I'd be grateful for advice on how others have handled this, what I expects is, a fairly common situation.

Many Thanks

I'm not sure why User 1's Cookie is changing (to User 2's value). The Cookie is stored in the user's browser. Something else must be causing the problem!

Cookies in FM sucks, that is my conclusion. I am using only JS cookies or FM tokens.
