Company Address in SSRS reports

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by David Rose 1,270

Hi All,

  When generating reports such as a PO or sales invoice the company details seems to be coming from the primary address listed in the legal entity I'm logged in with.  I thought I heard someone say recently that in some or all cases the site information would override this if it was available (which is what we want).  I've has a few goes at this but the legal entity details still keep coming up.  The  code in the insetIntoSalesInvoiceHeaderFootertmp looked like it was searching a few different areas for the address but I'm still new to this and couldn't be sure.

  Can anyone confirm or deny if the site address / phone / fax / email details should be overriding the company details if available or does this some code to get the address of the branch?

Thanks,

David

    Hi David,

    I take a look at the insertIntoSalesInvoiceHeaderFooterTmp method. The version I am on is AX2012 R2 and the company address / phone / fax are all directly taken from CompanyInfo without any conditional statements.

    I recommend writing a post-event handler to get the logic you want. =]

    Cheers

    Thanks Dolee,

     I should have said I'm on AX 2012 (not R2).  I see the following code in the iinsertIntoSalesInvoiceHeaderFooterTmp.

       salesInvoiceHeaderFooterTmp.CompanyName = companyInfo.name();

       salesInvoiceHeaderFooterTmp.CompanyTeleFax = companyInfo.teleFax();

       salesInvoiceHeaderFooterTmp.CompanyAddress = companyInfo.postalAddress().Address;

    Name comes straight from the field (which is fine).  The postal address has logic behind it in the postalAddress() method.  Is this the same as you?  I'll look into post-event handlers.

    Cheers

    Hi David,

    Yes, they are the same. In companyInfo.postalAddress method it is a one-liner:

    return DirParty::primaryPostalAddress(this.RecId);

    and in the primaryPostalAddress method it is a straight forward X++ select.

    So it doesn't look like it's doing anything other than digging up the primary company address.

    Cheers
