How to reference backorders or contents on partitions in lists?

I have a item list that puts each entry on a separate partition based on a label. at the start, all of the back orders for the items are placed on each partition, and are fulfilled and removed when the items arrive at their partitions. I want to check in a code that if the back order for a certain item is still on the list, or it has been fulfilled already. Is there a way to reference that? I tried

if (node("/Tools/GlobalLists/ListName>variables/partitions/1/backOrders/1", model()) > 0) {

but couldn't verify if this reference to the node of back orders on the tree is the reference I am looking for. I would appreciate your suggestions. Thanks!

Hi @sanaz karamimoghaddam, can I suggest you check out the listbackorders command? Also see this question.

You can also look at the Wait for Event activity in Process Flow that allows you to list to events on a list like On Partition Back Order Content Change and On Back Order Content Change that will fire every time a back order is added or removed from a list.
