How to copy custom fields from SalesParmTable to CustInvoiceJour when posting invoice?

(4) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Statics 365 317
Hi,
I added two custom fields on the Sales invoice posting dialog (SalesEditLines form)
and stored them in SalesParmTable:
- SalesParmTable.ShippingInvoiceDate (Date)
- SalesParmTable.ExportShippingNo (String, size 20)
Scenario:
1. Create invoice from Packing slip
2. Enter values in these custom fields
3. Click OK to post invoice
Requirement:
I want these values to be saved on CustInvoiceJour after posting.
I understand SalesParmTable is a parameter table and custom fields are not copied automatically.
What is the correct and upgrade-safe way to pass these values to CustInvoiceJour?
Which class/method should I extend (Chain of Command)?
Is SalesFormLetter_Invoice.updateInvoice() the right place?
Any best practice or recommendation is appreciated.
Thanks.

    Update:

     
    I solved this by updating CustInvoiceJour after posting in
    SalesFormLetter_Invoice.afterOperationBody().
    Values entered on the invoice posting dialog are stored in SalesParmTable.
    After posting, I read the posted invoices from
    formletterOutputContract.parmAllJournalsPacked().
    Important note:
    The CustInvoiceJour buffer from parmAllJournalsPacked() cannot be updated
    directly because it belongs to another transaction scope.
    Therefore, I re-select CustInvoiceJour using select forUpdate in my own TTS
    before updating custom fields.
    This is the final approach I used:
    - Hook: SalesFormLetter_Invoice.afterOperationBody()
    - Source: SalesParmTable (custom fields from posting dialog)
    - Target: CustInvoiceJour (re-select by RecId, then update)
    This works correctly for invoice from packing slip, batch posting,
    and follows X++ transaction rules.

    You could also extend initFromSalesParmTable method from the CustInvoiceJour table.
      
        public void initFromSalesParmTable(SalesParmTable _salesParmTable)
    {
        this.YourField1 = _salesParmTable.YourField1 ;
        this.YourField2 = _salesParmTable.YourField2;

        next initFromSalesParmTable(_salesParmTable);
    }
