Dears,

I have main form called ProcCategoryHierarchyManagement with some records and I already capture those records. Now I need to send that records to Form B. Please find my code below and advice how can I get the records in from B.

For Form ProcCategoryHierarchyManagement eventHandler with class.

class DAWEcoResCategroy
{


    /// <summary>
    ///
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name=/sender/></param>
    /// <param name=/e/></param>
    [FormControlEventHandler(formControlStr(ProcCategoryHierarchyManagement, DAWItemCategory), FormControlEventType::Clicked)]
    public static void DAWItemCategory_OnClicked(FormControl sender, FormControlEventArgs e)
    {
         Args args = new Args();

        EcoResCategoryNamedHierarchyRole namedHierarcyRole;
        FormRun             element       = sender.formRun();
        FormControl         category = element.design(0).controlName(/EcoResCategory_Name/);

        namedHierarcyRole = EcoResCategoryNamedHierarchyRole::Procurement;

args.parm(category.valueStr());

        info(strfmt(/categoryHierarchy %1/,EcoResCategoryHierarchyRole::getHierarchiesByRole(namedHierarcyRole).CategoryHierarchy));
        info(strfmt(/Category Name%1/, category.valueStr()));

    }

Form B form init()

public void init()
    {
        str 20 _category;
        super();
        if(element.args().menuItemName() == menuItemDisplayStr(DAWItemCategory))
        {
         _category = element.args().parm();

            EcoResCategory_Name.text(_category);

}
}

}

Hi,

look at this exemple :

MenuFunction menuFunction; Args args = new Args(); args.record(...); // record args.parm(...); // param menuFunction = new MenuFunction(menuitemDisplayStr(DAWItemCategory), MenuItemType::Display); menuFunction.run(args);

Best regards,

You don't need any code to pass the value, therefore throw away your event handler of clicked(). Create a menu item for FormB, drag it to your extension of ProcCategoryHierarchyManagement to create a menu item button and set its Data Source property to EcoResCategory. When you click the button, it's open FormB and pass the active EcoResCategory record there.

If you have EcoResCategory at the first data source of FormB, it'll automatically filter the data source and therefore maybe you don't need any code at all.

If you need to get the record in FormB, call this.args().record() to get it.

Thanks Martin. Its works and looks very easy to pass the records between forms.

Hi Amine,

Previously I used your approach but it open the from B twice after I click and not working properly. Thanks for you suggestion.
