Validation in a report

Sapphire123

Hi All,

In my processing report, I would like to capture errors when I'm validating field, e.g. recSalesHeader.validate("Sell-to-customer", theCustName)... if 'theCustName'does not exist, I would like to capture the error message, instead of having a pop up message displayed to hte user - how do I do this?

Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

The only thing you could do is to test for the error situations first and report on those, but that would take a LOT of programming.

Hi there,

You could probably do something like this:

1) create a function called IfItemExists(ItemNo)
If Item.Get(ItemNo) then exit(true)
else exit(false)

2) If IfItemExists(ItemNo) then
recSalesHeader.validate("Sell-to-customer", theCustName) else
...//record the missing item somewhere in a text file or another table

If you are runnning NAV5 you can use GETLASTERRORTEXT

Have a codeunit call the report. If the codeunit returns true, the report is ok, if it returns false you can catch errorstring.
