Implementing Jumpref or View Details on a List page

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Jonathan Halland 11,310

Hi All.

I have the following scenario. I have added a display method based column to a list page in AX2012 that displays a purchase order Id. Due to the number of tables involved it seems unfeasible to do this via adding data sources to my form. However the problem that I experience is that although the display method returns a PurchId the List page does not provide a "view details" option. Furthermore I'm unaware of how to (if at all possible) create jump ref methods on a list page (I assume via ListPage interaction class).

If anyone has come across this issue or knows of a workaround please can you assist me,

    Hello Jonathan,

    welcome back after a long time.

    well I think there are some chances to achieve this. I have not tested it yet, but let me share little idea so you may think of this direction

    first of all get the current record

    Common              currentRecord;

    currentRecord= this.listPage().activeRecord('CustTable');//'CustTable' is name of my DS

    Now get the form datasource name

    FormDataSource      frmDs

    frmDs   = currentRecord.dataSource();

    now using the form data source name we can make use of FormRun Object as under

    FormRun             formRun;

    formRun = frmDs.formRun();

    //now using form run, we can use FormStringontrol or FormRelaControl, depending upon what is type of control, where I am using display method lets suppose its string control

    FormStringControl   frmStringCtrl;

    frmStringCtrl.registerOverrideMethod(....

    Hi Sohaib.

    Awesome thanks for that. It was just what I needed. After a bit of experimentation this is what worked...

    All done in the ListPageInteractionClass

    //declare in classDeclaration
FormStringControl purchidCtrl;

public void initialized()
{
    Array fields;
    FormStringControl ctrl;
    FormDataSource      frmDs;
    Common              currentRecord;
    FormRun             formRun;
    
    super();    
    
    currentRecord= this.listPage().activeRecord('[MyDataSourceName]');
    frmDs   = currentRecord.dataSource();
    formRun = frmDs.formRun();
    purchidCtrl = formRun.control(formRun.controlId("purchId"));
    
    purchidCtrl.registerOverrideMethod(methodStr(FormStringControl, jumpRef),    methodStr([MyListPageInteractionClass], jumpRefPurch), this);
}

private void jumpRefPurch(FormControl _formControl)
{
    PurchTable purch;
    Args            args;
    MenuFunction    menuFunction;
    ;
    
    if (purchid.valueStr() != "")
    {            
        menuFunction = new MenuFunction(menuitemDisplayStr("PurchTable"), MenuItemType::Display);
        args = new Args(menuFunction.object());
        purch = PurchTable::find(purchid.valueStr());        
        if (purch.RecId != 0)
        {            
            args.record(purch);
            menuFunction.run(args);
        }
        else
        {
            error(strFmt("Purchase order: %1 no longer exists"));
        }
    }
    
}
