Use Extension in a form control method - X++

Posted on by 65

Is it possible to use an extension in BudgetCreateTransfer form control?

I tried the event handler but it didn't go through my event handler code.

My goal is to write my custom code before element.close();

    Thanks for this but the element.budgetTransactionHeader.RecId worked on my case.

    Try budgetTransactionHeaderLocal.RecId as I instructed :)

    Hi Jerrold,

    Try element.budgetTransactionHeader.RecId.

    [ExtensionOf(formControlStr(BudgetCreateTransfer, RequestBudgetButton))]
    final class BudgetCreateTransfer_Extension
    {
    
        public void clicked()
        {
            next clicked();
            BudgetTransactionHeader budgetTransActionHeaderLocal = budgetTransactionHeader;
    
            Info(strFmt("%1", budgetTransactionHeader.RecId));
        }

    The qualifier 'budgetTransactionHeader' is not valid in this context. Use a variable of this type instead.

    In CoC you can access any public and protected members of the augmented class (in this case form). You access them by referring to their name.

    So, type BudgetTransactionHeader.RecId to access that field.

    However there's some glitch and you might need to assign the table buffer to a local variable first.

    Something like

    BudgetTransactionHeader budgetTransActionHeaderLocal = budgetTransactionHeader;
    // now you can access it via budgetTransActionHeaderLocal .RecId

    How can I access BudgetTransactionHeader.RecId in my extension?

    Hi Jerrold,

    Do you want to put your code between Box::Info and element.close?

    You can try to use extensions for form controls (docs.microsoft.com/.../method-wrapping-coc and put your code before next statement.
