Weight update on bill of lading items form

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by bankk 6,609

Good moring!

I was curious if anyone could point me to where the WMSBillOfLadingCarrier.weight field could be updated in a packing slip operation which I understand auto-generates a BOL. What I'm trying to ultimately do is populate the "Weight" column in form Bill of lading items. Handling quantity is populated but Weight isn't. Thanks in advance.

    Hi

    As I know, in all AX versions the weight field is only a entry of the WMSBillOfLadingCarrier form.

    Thanks Denis. Do you have any advice on where to start looking for a proper place to auto-populate the weight? I don't want to impact the existing weight values already manually entered to-date however. If I can find where the BOL is auto-generated in the packing process I think I'll have what I need. Any leads would be appreciated. Thanks again.

    Hi

    Looking on WMSBillOfLading Table, constructFromPackingSlip method.

    This method is called during the Packing process from SalesFormLetter_InternalPackingSlip class, writeJournal method.

       if (this.useBillOfLading())

       {

           wmsBillOfLading = WMSBillOfLading::constructFromPackingSlip(custPckSlpJour, salesParmUpdate);

           custPckSlpJour.BillOfLadingId       = wmsBillOfLading.BillOfLadingId;

    ....

    This both for AX 2009 and AX 4.0.

    Regards

    Doh! Unfortunately I'm running on 2012R2 and I couldn't find SalesFormLetter_InternalPackingSlip. Thank you anyway Denis.

    I'll keep digging but if anyone has any ideas please let me know. Thanks much!

    Hi

    About AX 2012 R2, look the WmsbolItemProvider class, createOrUpdateWMSBillOfLadingCarrier method.

    About Packing, look the WmsbolItemProviderCustPackSlipTrans extends class, method initWMSBillOfLadingCarrier.

    The process start from SalesPackingSlipJournalPost class, updateJournalTable method.

    Then, is called the WMSBillOfLading table, constructFromPackingSlip method.

    Regards

    Hi Denis,

    I've put breakpoints in every class/method you mentioned but none of them have caught the execution. I followed the stack trace from a breakpoint in SalesFormLetter and lost it when I got to SysDictClass.invokeStaticMethodIL(). I'm totally confused.

    Hi

    On your user option, Development Tab, disable the CIL.

    Also, on Sales Parameter you have to set the BillOfLading to PackingSlip or Both?

    Check the code on SalesPackingSlipJournalPost class, updateJournalTable method, line 11.

    if (this.useBillOfLading())

       {

    ...

    Hi Denis,

    Now that I'm able to catch the breakpoints i'm in much better shape to continue debugging. Many thank you's for your patience and support with my issue!
