Hi All,

I have a custom boolean field called "Sent to Vendor". What I want to achieve is to automatically set this field to true when a Purchase Order is emailed to the vendor.

This will serve as a visual indicator to show which POs have already been sent.

You may not need that field. When a document is emailed it is counted as Printed. You can use the No. of Times Printed field. Anything > 0 has been sent, I am making the assumption you are not printing the PO since it is being emailed.

@Ben Baxter that is corrrect on your assumption, what your surgesting is a much simpler solution. I have manager to also work out the EmailSentSuccesfully boolean which give better control if it fails. Here are the code:

[EventSubscriber(ObjectType::Codeunit, Codeunit::"Document-Mailing", 'OnAfterEmailSent', '', false, false)]

procedure OnAfterEmailSent(

ReportUsage: Integer;

PostedDocNo: Code[20];

EmailSentSuccesfully: Boolean;

var TempEmailItem: Record "Email Item" temporary)

var

PurchHeader: Record "Purchase Header";

begin

if not EmailSentSuccesfully then

exit;

if PurchHeader.Get(PurchHeader."Document Type"::Order, PostedDocNo) then begin

PurchHeader.Validate("Sent to Vendor", true);

PurchHeader.Modify();

end;

end;
