Hey guys,
I would like to know, if it is possible to add an action to a RequestPage?
I have created an action, which prints a protocol and that function should also be accessible for the user from the RequestPage.
Thank you ;)
Hi
You cant add action to a request page.

That is bad...
I have extended my RequestPage by a bool variable, which the user can set to true/false:
If the variable is true, then the report is opened with the given-in values.
If not, then the report shows only empty fields.
Can I have access to the global variables of my report? To proof, if the value is set to true or false by the user?
Where you want to access the variable? Outside the report?
Yes, but I think, that this is not working.
To modify an existing report (for example like in your case where you want to add an action to a request page and a new global variable) you need to copy the existing report and create a new one. From the new report you can add an action like on every other page.
To set a global report variable value from the outside of the report object, just create a public procedure in your report that received a parameter and assigns its value to your global variable. You can then do:
YourReport.YourMethod(param)
I have also to copy the report, even though it is my own one and not a standard report?
Obviously no, if it's your custom report you can directly add the action to the request page.
Ok, I did not know, that it is possible to add actions to RequestPages.
I inserted my action in that way:
But the action is not shown on the RequestPage:
Try with:
actions
{
area(processing)
action(ActionName)
}
Unfortunately, it does not seem to matter which type of area I choose (Creation, Navigation, Processing, Reporting) , because none of them makes my action visible on the RequestPage....
