Parameters in the cloud

Hi experts,

In an old NAV, I have a solution where some code is added in the middle of codeunit 80, procedure PostItemJnlLine. The code must only be run sometimes. It is controllede by an extra parameter on the procedure. So depending on where PostItemJnlLine is called from, the extra parameter is set to true or false.

How do I do that in Business Central cloud?

I can add my code to one of the "On..." procedures, but is there a way to send an extra parameter to a standard procedure like PostItemJnlLine or can I set a global variable in codeunit 80 somehow?

Is it possible for my code in the "On..." procedure to communicate with one of the calling programs higher up in the call stack?

My situation is like this:

Procedure A:

PostItemJnlLine(..., true);

Procedure B:

PostItemJnlLine(..., false);

PostItemJnlLine:

...

if parameter then

    runExtraCode...

    Hi Nitin Verma,

    Thank you for your reply.

    It works now. I use some event subscribers and I have made a new singleInstance codeunit to hold my boolean. So in my codeunit, I save the parameter in the boolean and when I get to where I must use it, I have an event subscriber that reads the boolean in the codeunit.

    Best regards,

    Morten

    Hi Morten,

    Unfortunately we dont have those option now when we are working on Latest AL code of BC, we have this option only on C/AL version.

    To overcome this problem we only have some Event subscriber available to use most of the case. You have to move your CAL code from the functions and move to the respected event of the CU.

    Please refer the below link
