How recursion is possible in record level.

deepthi.v

Hi all,

I am using nav 3.7 .
I want to get the data in the form that displays the item Production BOM components And their components of each item till the item is not having bom.

How can we do this..


Ex: Item A is having 4 components in its Production BOM.

A1,A2,A3,A4
and in A1 again it is having 2 Components then
A11,A12 and in A11 there is again one component A111

I want to display all the components of A.


Help me please....


Thanks in Advance

Recursion is always the same

Function(param)
   IF some condition THEN
      Stop Execution
   Code
   Possibly More Code
   Function (some other param)

If NEXT returns 0 that is probably you condition to stop.

Important is that in your recursive function, the variables you use must be defined locally and not globally.

Make sure that you program a failsafe in to prevent infinite recursion, for instance if A is a component of B, and B is a component of A at the same time.

The limit in NAV recursion reaches very quickly with the system will throw out some error due to the limit of NAV memory handling. You are better off using temp table.
