Trigger something into another Company

ajayjain

How can I run a codeunit for another company without using job queue
I want to approve a Purchase Invoice in another company.

so we have 5 companies
approver will have to go into every company and approve it
I can display all approvals from all company into one list but when he approves it errors, even I use changecompany function.

Any advise?

Thanks

Try using STARTSESSION.

[OK :=] STARTSESSION(VAR SessionID, CodeunitID [, CompanyName] [,Record])

Or if you need data from another company you can use ChangeCompany() method.

Take note that CHANGECOMPANY should not be used to write data to the other company. Trigger code is run in the context of the current company i.e. rec variables in such triggers do not inherit the foreign company.

Chang log management has special code to write to the foreign company's change log entry, but at least part of the setup is taken from the current one.

I have never analized how events behave under these circumstances.
