Adding a new parameter in an existing SSRS report D365

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Vikso 5

Hello,

I need to create a new parameter in the existing BOM lines report. Business needs the report on the All production orders form. I have created an extension of the contract class and added my parm method in there with proper attributes.

I am passing the values using the prePromptModifyContract method of the controller class, and the value is flowing smoothly.

But when I am trying to retrieve the value from my dp class, the value is getting wiped out suddenly.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

Note: The parameter was not showing initially on the report dialog, so I had to add it using the UI builder extension class.

    Seems you created new controller class and add the code in prePromptModifyContract - Have you created new output menu item and map the newly created class - Or extend the output menu item and set your class property to new class you created.

    If none of them work means - I will suggest you duplicate all the reports objects - Including DP class- Contract - Ui builder.

    Instead of doing R&D we can go ahead and duplicate all the objects of the report.

    But one disadvantage will be if microsoft released some features to BOM report - It won't reflect in the duplicated report.

    Thanks,

    Girish,

    Yes all the other parameter values are coming. I tried to add manually, but no luck.

    Check whether other parameter values are coming.

    If the parameter is not coming, just manually add the parameter in report and try.

    Thanks,

    Hi Girish,

    I have already duplicated the report and refreshed the dataset. Although the parameter did not come automatically in the report, like it does for a custom report.

    Thanks

    I think you need to duplicate the report and refresh the dataset, since you have added new parameter.

    Refer to the below community thread which talks about the same issue.

    Hi Girish,

    Added the dp code below.

    public void processReport()

       {        

           BOMConsistOfContract    consistOfContract = this.parmDataContract() as BOMConsistOfContract;

           ProdTable               prodTable;

           if(consistOfContract.parmReferenceProdId())

           {

               prodTable = ProdTable::find(consistOfContract.parmReferenceProdId());

               this.parmQuery().dataSourceTable(tableNum(InventTable)).addRange(fieldNum(InventTable,ItemId)).value(prodTable.ItemId);

           }

           next processReport();

       }

    The contract class does not return anything on the parmReferenceProdId in here.

    Thanks

    Hi Vikso ,

    Can you show us the code for DP class?

    Thanks,

    Girish S.
