Not able to catch exception in endPost() method

Hi,

I am trying to catch an exception in custom code I wrote in extension class of SalesPackingSlipJournalPost.endPost(), I am calling base endPost method first using CoC and trying to generate a custom report at the end of the posting , the issue is that if an error/exception occur in generating/printing of custom report the packing slip posting fails which I don't want to happen, The packing slip posting should not fail if for some reason there is an error/exception in printing custom SSRS report. In this situation I want to catch the exception and display an infolog saying the packing slip is posted but the generation/printing of custom report failed due to xyz reason.

my code look something like this.

public void endPost()

{

next endPost()

try

{

//My code that involve writing to some tables and calling controller class of a SSRS report; some times i get an exception in

meunFunciton.run(args) in one of my custom methods.

}

catch

{

//Display Infolog about error

}

I am not able to achieve my desired outcome, when the exception occurs system display it in UI and the posting of packing slip is cancelled.

Thanks, Jonas, for your suggestion

I moved my code to Post event hander of Run method of SalesFormLetter and it worked. the packing slip posted even if there is an error/exception in the generation/printing of SSRS report.

for some weird reason my question is appearing under some other profile so can't mark your answer as verified answer. but thanks again

Moved from D365 general forum to the Finance forum, because it's clearly about F&O and not about D365 in general.

Not able to catch exception in endPost() method

It's an inherent design of X++. Assuming by the name of the method, it's inside a transaction.

When an exception occurs within a transaction scope (TTSBEGIN, TTSCOMMIT), it aborts the transaction, and except for a few cases, no try/catch statement inside a transaction scope can process an exception.

I have found a good article about the topic, if you want to learn more: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/x-exceptions-transactions-michael-pontoppidan/

You will have to rethink how you run your printing.

Hi,

You could try this:

System.Exception ex;

try

{

}

catch(ex)

{

error(ex.Message);

}

Thanks,
