Using Function Start Session and assign Automatically a new session ID

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by M.Zayed 460

Dea All,

Iam trying to fire STARTSESSION function in Navision 2016. I have a CU which will insert for me a new record in a table.

I am using the function like this:

***********************************

OK:= STARTSESSION(SessionID, CODEUNIT::"Mza_Insert_In_Table", 'TestCompany','');

IF OK THEN
  STOPSESSION(SessionID, 'Record was inserted');
ELSE
 ERROR('Session was stopped')

************************************

Each time I run this code I get this error: "Avariable was expected" and Navision aims to field "Session ID"

 

------ > "Session ID" is a variable of type Int. I thought navision will assign the the session ID Automatically! or I have to assign the session ID manually? If yes how can I do it?

    Hi,

    Also please check this blog post: krikinav.wordpress.com/.../parallel-processing-in-dynamics-nav which explains about Parallel Processing in NAV, which heavuly uses STARTSESSION.

    Hope it helps

    Hi Zayed,

    You can write this code like this.

    STARTSESSION(SessionEvent."Session ID",CODEUNIT::"Parallel Processing 2",COMPANYNAME,ItemLedgerEntryTMP01);

    SessionEvent is a Temporary Table which's ID is 2000000111, Session Event.

    Hope it helps.

    Thanks for the replay. But can you explain more in details please. I already  Created a C/Al variable of type INT  for the SessionID in the code which you see above. but still its not working?

    Hi,

    You have to create a C/AL variable for SessionID. After the session is started, the ID is assigned to the SessionID variable after the session is started successfully.

    Hope it helps.
