RE: Min/Max Import through DMF

Hi Sohib,

Thankyou so much that you tried for me.

it was an excel issue. when i copy 000001.then it took as 1

the excel removed all zeros

that is the behaviour of excel

So,we must select all rows an columns on left top and format -> format cells ->Text -> ok

now i imported one .it is working fine with out code modification.

If any thing happens i would ping you sohaib.

Please feel free to answer.

Regards

Have a great day

Hi AX 2012 R3,

In response to your private message in inbox and as I suggested you there. I have tested the entity the Sohaib mentioned it did work for me too. Please share more information on the version of AX and the customization in system as I can see objects are modified on USR layer. This will help us to find out the exact solution for you.

Hi AX 2012 r3,

Can you tell the exact version number of AX 2012 which you are using? As your nickname is AX 2012 r3, I assumed you are using this version. Possibly you have an older version and tried to create the entity using a wizard. Sohaib also noticed your objects are in the USR layer.

RE: Min/Max Import through DMF

your class is missing code to generate inventdim.

this mean when records go into your destination table, they don't have a corresponding record of inventdim and inner join fails to return record. Thus you don't see anything on form.

replace above code of getReturnFields with following code

public static container getReturnFields(Name _entity, MethodName _name) { DataSourceName dataSourceName = queryDataSourceStr(DMFReqItemTableTargetEntity, ReqItemTable); Container con = [dataSourceName]; Name fieldstrToTargetXML(FieldName _fieldName) { return DMFTargetXML::findEntityTargetField(_entity ,dataSourceName, _fieldName).XMLField; } switch (_name) { case methodStr(DMFReqItemTableEntityClass, GenerateInventDim) : con += [fieldstrToTargetXML(fieldStr(ReqItemTable, CovInventDimId))]; break; default : con = conNull(); } return con; }

and then add a new method in your class as following

[DMFTargetTransformationAttribute(true),DMFTargetTransformationDescAttribute("@DMF349"), DMFTargetTransformationSequenceAttribute(5) ,DMFTargetTransFieldListAttribute([fieldStr(DMFReqItemTableEntity,configId),fieldStr(DMFReqItemTableEntity,InventSizeId),fieldStr(DMFReqItemTableEntity,InventSiteId),fieldStr(DMFReqItemTableEntity,inventSerialId),fieldStr(DMFReqItemTableEntity,InventLocationId),fieldStr(DMFReqItemTableEntity,InventColorId),fieldStr(DMFReqItemTableEntity,inventBatchId),fieldStr(DMFReqItemTableEntity,InventStyleId),fieldStr(DMFReqItemTableEntity,wMSLocationId),fieldStr(DMFReqItemTableEntity,wMSPalletId)]) ] public Container GenerateInventDim(boolean _stagingToTarget = true) { container res; if (_stagingToTarget) { inventDim = DMFDimensionHelper::generateInventDimID(entity); res = [inventDim.inventDimId]; } else { inventDim = inventDim::find(target.CovInventDimId); res = [ inventDim.configId, inventDim.InventSizeId, inventDim.InventSiteId, inventDim.inventSerialId, inventDim.InventLocationId, inventDim.InventColorId, inventDim.inventBatchId, inventDim.InventStyleId, inventDim.wMSLocationId, inventDim.wMSPalletId]; } return res; }

Finally rebuild your entity and regenerate mapping

screenshot shows your objects in USR layer which means it is customized entity as per your environment and it is very much possible you are missing the code in entity class or you might have forget to add field under DMF field group of table. you can take working entity of SYS layer from any 2012R3CU9 or higher version of ax and that should be working perfectly.

I just tried it, now on my demo system and it worked straight away. no issues at all. would you like to delete and rebuild your entity in list of entities? it may not ab an issue with your mapping. also what version of ax you are using?
