Filtering on a temporary table

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 50

Hi everyone,
I want to filter with a data range on Customized Calendar Changes (Base Calendar) table, but I can't do it because it is a temporary table. The table fills with information when the user opens it. Can anyone help me and tell how to filter on it?
I want to filter with a specific period of time (from first day of month to last day of month) on Date field and for that period I want to count the Working Days (from Monday to Friday).

    This code was from a report (Processing Only). How can I copy the data of Customized Calender Change to another table (non temporary) ?

    Is this from a page or a report?

    If the "Customized Calender Change" table is defined as temporary in the table definition that means that you CCC variable will always be empty in the way you have organized your code here.

    Because the data item for your report and the CCC variable are two different instances of the temporary table.

    So even if you have populated the data item those records will never be in the scope for your CCC variable.

    You need to populate the CCC variable with data before you can do a count on that table.

    So either you need to copy the data from your data item or you need to totally reorganize your code.

    FOutputDate is the first date of the month and EOutputDate is the last day of month. When this error message shows up,  " Error(Text000, FOutputDate, EOutputDate, day2); " the "day2" variable has the value 0

    dataitem("Customized Calendar Change"; "Customized Calendar Change")

           {

               trigger OnAfterGetRecord()

               var

                   CCC: Record "Customized Calendar Change";

               begin

                   CCC.SetRange(Date, FOutputDate, EOutputDate);

                   if CCC.FindSet() then begin

                       if CCC.Nonworking = false then begin

                           day2 := ccc.Count;

                       end;

                   end;

               end;

           }

    There should be no difference in the way you filter on an ordinary table and a temporary table as long as your temporary table is still in scope of your code.

    Maybe you can share the code you are running, then it is easier to assist you.
