# Lusid.PortfolioOrder

| **Type** | **Read/write** | **Author** | **Availability** |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [Data provider](/v1/docs/what-are-a-data-provider-and-a-direct-provider) | Read | FINBOURNE | Provided with LUSID |

Providing you have sufficient [access control permissions](/v1/docs/creating-policies-to-control-access-to-providers-for-different-luminesce-end-users), the `Lusid.PortfolioOrder` provider enables you to write a [Luminesce SQL query](/v1/docs/understanding-the-luminesce-sql-query-syntax) that retrieves [orders](/v1/docs/what-is-an-order-in-lusid) stored in LUSID.

> **Note**: By default, `Lusid.PortfolioOrder` cannot retrieve properties for orders. To do this, you must first configure `Lusid.PortfolioOrder` to 'inline' properties. [See how to do this](/v1/docs/how-do-i-configure-luminesce-entity-providers-to-readwrite-properties).

**See also**: [Lusid.PortfolioOrder.Writer](/v1/docs/lusidportfolioorderwriter)

## Basic usage

```sql
select * from Lusid.PortfolioOrder where <filter-expression>
```

## Query parameters

`Lusid.PortfolioOrder` has parameters that enable you to filter or refine a query.

To list available parameters, their data types, default values, and an explanation for each, run the following query using a [suitable tool](/v1/docs/what-tools-are-available-to-write-luminesce-queries):

```sql
select FieldName, DataType, ParamDefaultValue, Description from Sys.Field where TableName = 'Lusid.PortfolioOrder' and FieldType = 'Parameter';
```

## Data fields

By default, `Lusid.PortfolioOrder` returns a table of data populated with particular fields (columns). You can return a subset of these fields.

To list fields available to return, their data types, whether fields are considered 'main', and an explanation for each, run the following query using a [suitable tool](/v1/docs/what-tools-are-available-to-write-luminesce-queries):

```sql
select FieldName, DataType, IsMain, IsPrimaryKey, SampleValues, Description from Sys.Field where TableName = 'Lusid.PortfolioOrder' and FieldType = 'Column';
```

> **Note:** Fields marked 'main' are returned by queries that select a caret character, for example `select ^ from Lusid.PortfolioOrder`.
