Posted on by Mav

Hi folks,

I have a need to ensure that collection letter field in dialog for create customer collection letter , show only 1 enum value out of all enum values for collectionlettercode.

Further analyzing i realized that the values are coming from public object Dialog() method of custcollectionlettercreate class & did change the following text in my extended class.

dialogCustCollectionLetterCode = dialogRunbase.addFieldValue(enumStr(CustCollectionLetterCode), collectionLetterCode, "@SYS13960") in orginal class to

dialogCustCollectionLetterCode = dialogRunbase.addFieldValue(enumstr(CustCollectionLetterCode::All)), collectionLetterCode, "@SYS13960"); in my extension class.

I tried customizing this class as per my need using COC, so i created class & enter the following code , but getting the following errors at red line

1. Not all path return value in dialog &

2. ")" expected

[ExtensionOf(classstr(CustCollectionLetterCreate))]
final class Myclass_CustCollectionLetterCreate_Extension
{
 
    public Object dialog()
    {
        next dialog();     
        dialogCustCollectionLetterCode = dialogRunbase.addFieldValue(enumstr(CustCollectionLetterCode::All)), collectionLetterCode, "@SYS13960");
    }

}

I understand that this method has to return object , however I cannot simply put a return code in my extension, please suggest how to do COC to address my requirement.

Hi Mav

I'm not sure what your requirement is, and whether your solution is correct or not, but this will help you resolve the immediate problem you have.

What you should have is:

[ExtensionOf(classstr(CustCollectionLetterCreate))] final class Myclass_CustCollectionLetterCreate_Extension { public Object dialog() { Object ret = next dialog(); dialogCustCollectionLetterCode = dialogRunbase.addFieldValue(enumstr(CustCollectionLetterCode::All)), collectionLetterCode, "@SYS13960"); return ret; } }

Hope this helps

Thanks it does fix the return error , however still get 2nd error ")" expected

Apparently enumstr would just accept enumstr name & not the enum:: value, pls suggest what needs to be done so that I can use enum :: value.

dialogCustCollectionLetterCode = dialogRunbase.addFieldValue(enumstr(CustCollectionLetterCode::All)), collectionLetterCode, "@SYS13960");

I think i understand it now.

We cannot add particular enum value to addfield. We have to limit the enum values being displayed in the dialog field by customizing Dialogenumcomboboxclass.

I do have example of how to do it, however it is in Runbase & hence looking for sysoperations example , please share if anyone has already done this in sysoperation framework.

Example of how to achieve this in Runbase framework is available in below community link.

Addfieldvalue accept type not a value, so you have to pass enum. If you want only 1 value available what is the point at all ? Just make it not editable, pass "all" as a second parameter, so it would be defaulted, something like:

dialogCustCollectionLetterCode = dialogRunbase.addFieldValue(enumstr(CustCollectionLetterCode)), CustCollectionLetterCode::All), "@SYS13960");

dialogCustCollectionLetterCode.enabled(false)

Yes, there is extra ")" should be like:

dialogCustCollectionLetterCode = dialogRunbase.addFieldValue(enumstr(CustCollectionLetterCode), CustCollectionLetterCode::All,"@SYS13960");
dialogCustCollectionLetterCode.enabled(false);

Thanks for help.

Sorry guys , i should have figured that out , my bad.

After fixing the bracket I am getting this error for dialogRunbase, should i declare another instance of dialog runbase in my COC method.

But if i do so will it work, i mean how will my dialogRubase instance in my coc relate to main dialogrubase instance in main class.

Error The qualifier 'dialogRunbase' is not valid in this context. Use a variable of this type instead.

dialogCustCollectionLetterCode = dialogRunbase.addFieldValue(enumstr(CustCollectionLetterCode),CustCollectionLetterCode::All,"@SYS13960");

dialogCustCollectionLetterCode.enabled(false);

Well in Your COC method you must be getting dialog right ? something like this

ExtensionOf(classstr(bankChequeCreate))] Final class MybankChequeCreate_extension { public Object dialog() { DialogRunbase dialog; Dialog = next Dialog(); this.dialogBankTransType = dialog.addFieldValue(extendedTypeStr(BankTransactionType), bankTransType, "Trans Type"); return Dialog; } }

Hi all errors gone , using below code to do COC for dialog() for CustCollectionLetterCreate class.

However

Still see all values in drop down, as per code it should only show ALL, not sure why code is not working.

Pls refer the pic below code.

public Object dialog() { //object ret = next dialog(); DialogRunbase dialog; dialog = next Dialog(); this.dialogCustCollectionLetterCode = dialog.addFieldValue(enumstr(CustCollectionLetterCode),CustCollectionLetterCode::All,"@SYS13960"); dialogCustCollectionLetterCode.enabled(false); return dialog; }
