canSubmitToWorkflow from SalesTable : The augmented class 'SalesTable' provides a method by this name

Hi guys,

Face some difficulties while creating method CanSubmitToWorkflow in SalesTable. I did some research and it looks many confusion also.

So 1st problem is, we can no more override the method, right ? so while the reference I have, all was mentioned about that, this step is out of options.

2nd, I thought we can solve this by using CoC to extend the table (The sales table it self already extend, and I'm using Fleet Management Model, btw). But I'm facing Build error saying like this :

My CoC class:

[ExtensionOf(tableStr(SalesTable))]
final class FMSalesTableCanSubmitToWorflow_Extension
{

public boolean canSubmitToWorkflow()

{
boolean ret;

ret = next canSubmitToWorkflow();

if(this.recID && this.WorkflowStatus == CFMJOurnalWorkflowStatus::NotSubmitted && this.existSalesLine())

{
ret = true;
}
return ret;
}

}

and the error :

The augmented class 'SalesTable' provides a method by this name, but this method cannot be used as a chain of command method since the parameter profile does not match the original method.

What does it mean actually ? Need to understand this first, before I tried out another solution I found, and this guy create Event Handler instead.

This method needs to have a parameter str _workflowType. You can notice it if you try to override this method in any of your own tables.

Here's also an example from Microsoft how to handle canSubmitToWorkflow with Chain of Command: docs.microsoft.com/.../method-wrapping-coc

Hi Nikolaos,

I'm sorry, one quick question (because I'm not sure create new topic will make sense). in all documents saying we need to create another method for update the workflow state.

So this new method also through CoC ? a bit confuse because my understanding CoC is we need to have the the original first right ? so this Update Workflow state, is new method or actually every table already have it ?

I'm following this reference:

community.dynamics.com/.../create-custom-workflow-in-d365-dynamics-365

Thanks,

You can easily find out if every table has this method. Just create a new table, then right click methods -> override method and look if you see it there.

Hi Voltes,

Generally, you only need to implement this method at the table level. After you create the workflow type, the wizard will help you create the eventhandler class and use it there.

In addition, I checked the documentation and found no mention of the need to create another (maybe I missed it).

Hi,

Yes, If I tried to refer to my custom table, there is no such method for Update Workflow Status. So it means I will need to create this new method, right ? and it is not CoC because it is not override anything.

And yes, in this 2 reference are talking about the needs to create this method :

devmusings.blog/.../

community.dynamics.com/.../create-custom-workflow-in-d365-dynamics-

But then again my Sales Table extension, how to create new method over there ? I'm creating this on Fleet Management, btw. SalesTable is extended here.

Thanks

hi Voltes,

In D365FO extension of canSubmitToWorkflow still not available if not override on actual table. But there is an alternate on which i have recently and its working perfectly on client side.

Check this thread:https://community.dynamics.com/365/financeandoperations/f/dynamics-365-for-finance-and-operations-forum/256336/override-table-methods-in-d365

Hi Blue,

Sorry to confuse you, canSubmitToWorkflow is solved already. I explain already on my previous discussion, understand I need to create new topic but I feel this still related.

It is about the next method which is UpdateWorkflowState.

Thanks,
