Posted on by Community Member

Hi All,

I have a question, I have Display methods in a report, the type of method is string, by example  :

Display Str  X;

Str Status;

BOMId = BOMTable.BomId

If (ProdTable.BOMId !="")
                    {
                        Status= "Used";
                    }
                Else
                    {
                        Status = "Not Used";
                    }

Return Status;

That method as a column in my report, my question is can my report will be sort by that methods..???

Thx...

    You can run SQL queries against X++ methods, but in your case you can simply sort by BOMId.

    Note that Crispin's answer assumes that it's an SSRS report; it's not applicable to MorphX reports.

    Hi Martin,

    Thx for your answer before...

    I mean, I want to sort my report by Status...

    By example, the BOMId which have status Not Used in ascending...

    and for the next is BOMId Which have status Used...

    Can I do that...??

    Or I must use a table for insert BOMId and add some field for status...??

    and then that table to be my datasource ?

    Crispin, you still may be right - AX 2009 uses both MorphX and SSRS reports and Ari still haven't told us which one he's talking about.

    Air, if you sort by BOMId in descending order, you get first records with BOMId (= Used) and then the ones without BOMId (= Not used), therefore it meets your requirements.

    Maintaining status in separate field is an option, of course, and you would need it if your logic was more complex.
