Well, Document handling a great feature of Axapta; It really just depends on what your application requires. For instance, one application was based upon the sales order having a certain document attached to a sales order based on upon a custom enumeration. So the button has a name like an invoice declaration for instance.
If the button is clicked two menu options appear
– Add document or
- View document;
*If the add document button is clicked
The select file dialog appears and the user selects a file and clicks OK. At this point, the file is written to the document handling table with the custom enumeration marked as “Invoice declaration”.
*If the view document option is selected and there is a file to view,
The standard documentation form will appear and the document will automatically be launched for viewing.
What I decided to do is was find the lasted record with the enumeration set as the button that is being clicked. I pass RecId of this record using args to the Document handling form so when the form is launched I have access to the recId of the record I want to see. I set a class declaration variable of type Int64 to the recId of being passed in so I have access to the variable all over the form. This way I can use the variable in conditional statements to determine if I want to execute code. Below I will demonstrate how to insert a record in the document handling form and how I view a document of selection from the document handling form from the calling form.
Loading a document from the sales order to the document handling table
Args args = new args();
formrun FormRun;
filenameSave filename;
Args args1 = new args();
wfsEMSalesOrderDocumentation wfsEMSalesOrderDocumentation;
docuref docuref;
form form2;
FilenameFilter _conFilter;
filename file;
recid docuvaluerecid;
docuvalue docuvalue;
int hwnd;//wfs ctodd 6/21/2012
;
if(SalesTable)
{
_conFilter = ['All FIles','*.*'];
hWnd = element.hWnd();
file = WinAPI::getOpenFileName(infoLog.hWnd(),_conFilter,'','Select Document Path');
if(file)
{
ttsbegin;
docuref.TypeId = "File";
docuref.Name = "Commercial Invoice";
docuref.Notes = docuRef.Notes;
docuRef.Restriction = DocuRestriction::External;
docuref.RefCompanyId = SalesTable.dataAreaId;
docuref.WfsExportType = wfsexporttype::CommercialInv;
docuref.RefTableId = tablenum(SalesTable);
docuref.RefRecId = SalesTable.RecId;
docuref.insert();
docuvalue.initValue();
docuvalue.insert();
docuref.ValueRecId = docuvalue.RecId;
docuref.update();
docuvaluerecid = docuvalue.RecId;
select forupdate docuvalue where docuvalue.recid == docuvaluerecid;
docuvalue = docuvalue::writeDocuValue(docuref,file);
ttscommit;
}
Viewing a file to the document handling table from the sales order table
Args args = new args();
formrun FormRun;
filenameSave filename;
Args args1 = new args();
wfsEMSalesOrderDocumentation wfsEMSalesOrderDocumentation;
docuref docuref;
form form2;
FilenameFilter _conFilter;
filename file;
recid docuvaluerecid;
docuvalue docuvalue;
;
if(SalesTable)
{
args = new Args();
args.name(formstr(docuview));
select reverse docuRef order by createdDateTime
where Docuref.RefTableId == salesTable.TableId
&& docuRef.RefRecId == salesTable.RecId
&& docuRef.WfsExportType == wfsExportType::CommercialInv;
args.record(docuRef);
args.parm(int642str(docuRef.RecId));
args.caller(this);
FormRun = classfactory.formRunClass(args);
FormRun.init();
FormRun.run();
FormRun.wait();
salesTable_ds.reread();
salesTable_ds.refresh();
}
When viewing my document I want to pass in the record I want to see from the document handling form
//This is the document handling form init method
void init()
{
#define.ctrlBuildAdd('ctrlAdd')
DocuType docuType;
FormBuildMenuButtonControl menuCtrl;
FormBuildFunctionButtonControl itemButtonCtrl;
if (! infolog.parmDocuHandlingActive())
{
throw(error("@SYS60737"));
}
if (infolog.parmDocu().isDocuViewSet())
{
infolog.parmDocu().setActive();
throw Exception::Info;
}
optionView = new DocuOptionView();
optionView.getLast();
DocuType::createDefaults();
docuTypeIdFile = DocuType::typeFile();
menuCtrl = this.form().design().control(#ctrlBuildAdd);
while select docuType
index TypeIdx
{
itemButtonCtrl = menuCtrl.addControl(FormControlType::MenuFunctionButton,docuType.TypeId);
itemButtonCtrl.menuItemType(MenuItemType::Action);
itemButtonCtrl.menuItemName(menuitemactionstr(DocuActionNew));
itemButtonCtrl.text(docuType.TypeId);
}
//Here I set my variable exportRecId to the recId of the parameter I passed in using args
if(element.args().caller().name() == formstr(wfsEMExportSales)) // dms
{
exportRecId = str2int64(element.args().parm());
}
super();
link.enabled(false);
multiPaste.enabled(false);
formSplitter_Y = new SysFormSplitter_Y(grpSplit,grpRefGrid,this);
}
Here is the init method on the datasource DocuRef I need to create a query range
void init()
{
Query q;
QueryBuildDataSource qB;
super();
q = new Query();
qB = q.addDataSource(tablenum(DocuRef));
criteriaRefCompanyId = qB.addRange(fieldnum(DocuRef,RefCompanyId));
criteriaRefTableId = qB.addRange(fieldnum(DocuRef,RefTableId));
criteriaRefRecId = qB.addRange(fieldnum(DocuRef,RefRecId));
criteriaCreatedBy = qB.addRange(fieldnum(DocuRef,CreatedBy));
I create a range for the recId of the record being passed in. This is checked with a condition
We don't want to create the range if no value exists in exportRecId if(exportRecId) { recIdRange = qB.addRange(fieldnum(DocuRef,recId)); } element.setRangeCreateId(optionView.parmShowAllUser()); this.query(q); this.cacheAddMethod(tablemethodstr(DocuRef, isValueAttached)); }
The executeQuery of DocuRef which will perform the query execution of the form for that datasource
void executeQuery()
{
if (element.isActualFound())
{
criteriaRefCompanyId.value(queryValue(actualCompanyId));
criteriaRefTableId.value(queryValue(actualTableId));
criteriaRefRecId.value(queryValue(actualRecId));
}
else
{
criteriaRefCompanyId.value(queryValue(naStr()));
criteriaRefTableId.value(queryValue(naInt()));
criteriaRefRecId.value(queryValue(naInt()));
}
If my variable has a value then we pass that value to the range I created in the
in the init method
if(exportRecId)
{
recIdRange.value(SysQuery::value(exportRecId));
}
super();
}
Again I use the variable exportRecId to determine if the document should automatically
be viewed when launching from the sales order form. So basically if I have the recId
from a caller I want the document to be automatically launched
void run()
{
element.setCaption("@SYS26830");
filter.selection(optionView.parmShowAllUser());
showOnlyRef.value(optionView.parmShowOnlyRef());
showImage.value(optionView.parmShowImage());
this.setShowRef();
this.setShowImage();
if(exportRecId)
{
showImage.value(1);
this.setShowImage();
}
super();
}
