Hi,

I extended the 'InventJournalTemplateDocument' document class for return the value based on the inventory adjustment lines,

but in the Workflow conditional statement the field is not available.

Code 1:

[ExtensionOf(classStr(InventJournalTemplateDocument))]
final class InventJournalTemplateDocument_TSIM_Extension
{
    public DMFNoYesStr getInventAdjustQty(CompanyId _companyId, TableId _tableId, RecId _recId)
    {
        InventJournalTable inventJournalTable;
        InventJournalTrans inventJournalTrans;
 
        DMFNoYesStr autoApprove = 'Yes';
        inventJournalTable = inventJournalTable::findByRecId(_recId);
        
        select firstonly inventJournalTrans
            where inventJournalTrans.RecId == inventJournalTable.RecId &&
            inventJournalTrans.Qty <=  0;
        if(inventJournalTrans)
        {
            autoApprove = 'No';
        }
        
        return autoApprove;
    }
}

I used the EDT's of Name, Description, NoYesId, String10 but no luck.
How can I get this field in workflow configuration?

Hi @Saran S

You should add the Display method to the table, and sync the database, then you should see it on the workflow configuration.

Thanks,

I think the method must return a supported data type (str, int, enum, etc.) Most importantly — the method must be decorated with attributes so the workflow runtime can detect it.

Thanks, Ramesh

Hi,

To get methods as fields in the workflow configuration, you have to add parm methods to your workflow document class. Something like this below. Note, the code below is from my AX 2012 archive and I changed it a bit form for this post and I haven't tested it F&O but it still should work.

public class MyApprovalWorkflowDocument extends WorkflowDocument { public MyEnum parmHasCreditLine(CompanyId _companyId, TableId _tableId, RecId _recId) { SalesTable salesTable; MyEnum hasCreditLine; //custom base enum with label changeCompany(_companyId) { salesTable = SalesTable::findRecId(_recId); if (salesTable) { hasCreditLine = salesTable.type().myHasCreditLine() ? MyEnum::Yes : MyEnum::No; } } return hasCreditLine; } }

Thanks for all your replies.

The issue was due to the method name. For this process, the method name should be like parm.
I renamed my method from getInventAdjustQty to parmInventAdjustQty, and now it's working fine.
