System Notes

Posted on by mbr 5,136

I am in Sales Order List and in the Sales Order List there is a System Notes Fact box which is pretty neat.  users can make notes for each sales order!

The problem is I don't know how to retrieve these notes so I can display in a report.   I want to write a report that details each open sales order and any system notes created for that sales order.  Do you think I can make this happen?  I looked at Record Links table but nothing there shows me how to link to a sales order.

Please help!

    RecRef.GETTABLE(SalesHeader);
RecordLink.SETRANGE("Record ID",RecRef.RECORDID);
IF RecordLink.FINDFIRST THEN BEGIN
  REPEAT
    RecordLink.CALCFIELDS(Note);
    IF RecordLink.Note.HASVALUE THEN BEGIN
      CLEAR(NoteText);
      RecordLink.Note.CREATEINSTREAM(Stream);
      NoteText.READ(Stream);
      NoteText.GETSUBTEXT(NoteText, 2);
      MESSAGE(FORMAT(NoteText));
    END;
 UNTIL RecordLink.NEXT = 0;
END;

    Variables

RecordLink -> Record - Record Link

NoteText -> BigText

Stream -> InStream

RecRef -> RecordRef

    Try this Code where you pass the sales header to the function, it will loop through all the notes for that record and at the end where message is there you can store the value in a text variable and use it accordingly.
