How to pass query filter in Electronic reporting from source code

Posted on by Hammad Khan

I have created a custom Export format for bank integration. I need to call ER report from the code and pass the query filter before calling run method. I don't have user input parameters since I am using a query to filter records.

I am stuck on the code on how to pass the value before calling the run method. I have followed this document to pass the value but it is not working coz I don't have a user input parameter and gets into an exception.

This is what I am passing

When i run the report from ER

This is where the system throws exception

Hi Hammad, add your user input of type sstring in the root of your model mapping (center column", call it "XYZ" and pass it in code as "model/XYZ"

Hi Arcadi Burria,

Thanks for the reply. Your comment partially answered my query so I am marking it as an answer

For those who are facing a similar situation, this is what I did to make it work

First, edit and disable ask for query on data source

Add a user input parameter JournalNum in my case

Add the calculated field and in the formula, section add the filter function and link to a user input parameter

As mentioned by Arcadi Add the string type field in the data model and bind it to your user input parameter

In code pass your parameter as Model/journalNum
const str erParmJournalNum = "Model/JournalNum; str todayDate = date2str(today(), 123, DateDay::Digits2,DateSeparator::None,DateMonth::Digits2,DateSeparator::None,DateYear::Digits4); FileName downloadfileName = "your download file name"; ERIFormatMappingRun ERIFormatMappingRun; // Add the input parameter – journal num so that it export the lines only for that journal ERModelDefinitionInputParametersAction modelDefinitionInputParametersAction = new ERModelDefinitionInputParametersAction(); modelDefinitionInputParametersAction.addParameter(erParmJournalNum, _journalNum); // attach the file to attachments in journal header Var fileDestination = ERObjectsFactory::createFileDestinationAttachmentWithOtherDocuType("table that your want your attachemnt to attach to"); // Export the data in the file based on the input parameters ERIFormatMappingRun = ERObjectsFactory::createFormatMappingRunByFormatMappingId(your format recid, downloadfileName); ERIFormatMappingRun.withParameter(modelDefinitionInputParametersAction); ERIFormatMappingRun.parmShowPromptDialog(false); ERIFormatMappingRun.withFileDestination(fileDestination); ERIFormatMappingRun.run();
