Data Entity method/event handler flows

Posted on by Community Member

Hey guys,

I can't find any documentation regarding DataEntities and its method flows. I want to know the method flow for CRUD operations.

as well as, I am importing data from a client thumb impression machine (data.dat), which has a single column but N number or rows. What I want to do is, once the data is staged and mapped through data entity, I want to parse the inserted record using a XMLParser (self written) class.

something like:

// once copy imported data from entity to table finished
// i wouldn't mind if this scenario can be handled using methods or events
XMLParser::parseData(_tableName);


data.dat format:

11010101
10001010
11111111

what have I achieved so far?
data.dat file is being imported to AAD and then being copied to AX table using Data Entity.

It seems that the second paragraph is about a different problem than the title and the first paragraph, therefore you should move it to a separate thread with an appropriate title and tags.

I'm not sure what exactly you want to know about the methods. Validations, defaults, and unmapped fields may answer some of your questions.

The title is right, I just to know how to trigger an event/method, while the entity maps data to the actual ax table.

Unless I know the appropriate flow, I wouldn't be able to write a proper business logic else it would be a hit and trail by trying to code in different methods/events until my requirement is fulfilled.

Events are triggered by the framework, not by yourself. You can attach logic to them which will get execute when they are triggered.

Hi Martin,

Is there any blog which can be refer to check triggering sequence of events of data entity. So that i can create event extension of those which suits my requirement.

I need to know which event sequence so that i can create extension of it to insert my custom logic for data import.

Thanks
