How to use CALCFIELDS

James111

Hi,

I have problem, because i would like get FlowField(Cost Amount (Expected)) from table : Item Ledger Entry to my report.

My code:
Variables: Cost - decimal.

CALCFIELDS(Cost Amount (Expected));
Cost:=Cost Amount (Expected);

But it doesn't work,

Plese give me answer.

Thanks,
James

is item ledger entry the dataitem of your report?

ex/
[Ok :=] Record.CALCFIELDS(Field1, [Field2],...)

ILE.CALCFIELDS("Adjusted Cost (Expected)");

Are you just getting a zero or are you getting an error?
make sure you test it on a entry that actually has a value.

DataItem is "Item Ledger Entry" and Value is 0,00.

I don't know where is the problem.

Hi, put a breakpoint there and run it through the debugger. I bet you'll find your solution pretty quickly. BTW, I am assuming you are using Classic. Good luck!

Are you putting your code OnAfterGetRecord trigger of the ILE dataitem?

Can we assume this "cost" variable is the Sourcexp of a textbox that exists in the body of the report?

Are you testing the report with a ILE that actually has a value. Note that field doesn't always contain a value.

Perhaps you'r looking to do more of a.....

ILE.Calcfields("Adjusted Cost", "Adjusted Cost (Expected)");
If ILE."Adjusted Cost" = 0 then
cost := ILE."Adjusted Cost (Expected)" else
cost := ILE."Adjusted Cost";

Unless you're just trying to find the ILE that are not zero.

Yes, I putted trigger OnAfterGetRecord,

I used variable: Cost in a report.


I will try..
Thanks

Savatage

did you try the above code? or is this report specifically looking the "expected" field?

James111

No, i didn't try yours code, mayby it work.

are you also filtering on Item No.?

Find an item that you are sure has a value in that field and test it.

James111

It's working, Cost Amount (Expected) it's realy 0,00:) - this is wrong field.

Correct field is ;Cost Amount (Actual)


Thanks for your helps.

James:)

Sometimes it's the little things. 8)

ILE can grow really large I like to throw a SETCURRENTKEY line in to help speed it up.

ex/
SETCURRENTKEY("Item No.","Variant Code","Drop Shipment","Location Code","Bin Code","Posting Date");
