Passing Setfitlers through Functions

sabzam · 2009-05-07

Dear All,

I would like to pass a number of setfilter to a function but instead of passing one by one I would like to use the copyfilter. Can anyone give me some guidance on this pls?

Hi,

What are you trying to achieve?

Have you tried passing down a filter record variable and copyfiltler from that ?

I have applied 3 setfilters to a record variable in function a in codeunit a. I have passed the record into Function B in codeunit B. When I am trying to use the copyfilters in function B the filters are not passing over.

Hi,

How are you setting the filters?

I am using the %1 thing as well as passing the variable as type var into the function but to no avail.

you can pass the entire record variable, it will maintain the filters you set.
*EDIT: just noticed i didn't told that you have to pass the variable by ref in order to obtain the filter set with this method, sorry :oops:

alternatively (never tried before) you can pass the result of GETVIEW function as a parameter and use SETVIEW to replicate the set of filters

Hi,

Is it a local v's global variable problem?
