Processing Report

sarmig · 2011-07-11

Hi there.

I was assigned a new task. I have to write a processing-only report. From what I could tell, a processing report is like a batch file, which runs a few tasks on the background.

It shouldn't be too hard. Basically, I have to check values from a field of a table, and if the content of that field is 0, it should copy values from a field from another table, obviously bearing in mind that the selected item of those two tables must be the same one.

Ok, so, if you could give me some pointers about where should I start, it would be great. I wish there was a beginner's forum for these rookie questions, but I guess this is the place where the experts are...

Thanks in advance!

You should start by reading the reporting documentation. If you are a customer, check CustomerSource. If you are a partner check PartnerSource.

Ok, so this is what I have until now (obviously it doesn't work...yet):

RecItem.RESET;
RecRoutingLine.RESET;

RecItem.SETRANGE("No.", 'M000000', 'M999999');
IF RecItem.FINDFIRST() THEN BEGIN
  REPEAT
    IF RecItem."Tempo Fabrico Machos" > 0 THEN BEGIN
      RecRoutingLine."Run Time" := RecItem."Tempo Fabrico Machos";
      RecRoutingLine.MODIFY;
      MESSAGE('%1', RecRoutingLine."Run Time");
      RecItem.NEXT;
    END
  UNTIL RecItem."No." = 'M999999';
END

What I want is to filter only the items that begin with the letter 'M', then if those items have a certain field > 0, I want that value to be copied to another table, but on the same item...

I tried doing it alone, with what I know until now, but I was hoping you could point me in the right direction...

Thanks...

RecItem.RESET;
RecRoutingLine.RESET;

RecItem.SETRANGE("No.", 'M000000', 'M999999');
IF RecItem.FINDSET THEN
  REPEAT
    IF RecItem."Tempo Fabrico Machos" > 0 THEN BEGIN
      RecRoutingLine."Run Time" := RecItem."Tempo Fabrico Machos";
      RecRoutingLine.MODIFY;
      MESSAGE('%1', RecRoutingLine."Run Time");
      
    END
  UNTIL RecItem.Next = 0;

Do you have right RecRoutingLine record at that point?

Its showing an error that says something like this (I'm translating from the portuguese, so it might not say the same in English): "It's not possible to make any changes in the database until a transaction is initiated"...

Did you check this?

I was pointed to the right direction: they told me to eliminate the repeat...until and to write the code in the OnAfterGetRecord trigger(I'm using the Item Data Item, but I'm not sure if I should be using the Routing Line Data Item).

I'm sure I'm almost there. Here's what I've got:

RecItem.RESET;
RecRoutingLine.RESET;

RecItem.SETFILTER("No.", 'M*' );
RecRoutingLine.SETFILTER("Routing No.", 'M*');

IF RecItem.FIND AND RecRoutingLine.FIND THEN
    IF RecItem."Tempo Fabrico Machos" > 0 THEN BEGIN
      RecRoutingLine."Run Time" := RecItem."Tempo Fabrico Machos";
      RecRoutingLine.MODIFY;
    END

If you are using Item Dataitem then no need to take recItem variable..
Set M* in DataItemTableView-Talbe Filter

In Onaftergetrecord trigger write this

RecRoutingLine.RESET;
RecRoutingLine.SETRANGE("Routing No.","No.");
IF RecRoutingLine.FINDSET THEN
REPEAT
IF "Tempo Fabrico Machos" > 0 THEN BEGIN
RecRoutingLine."Run Time" := "Tempo Fabrico Machos";
RecRoutingLine.MODIFY;
END
UNTIL RecRoutingLine.NEXT = 0;

Not working...

Check why it is not working?

Yes, I created an item that starts with M....and gave it a "Tempo Fabrico Machos".

In the Routing Line table, and after running the report, its runtime is still 0...

It worked for me without any problem.. :thumbsup:

First of all, "Tempo Fabrico Machos" - is normal field or flow field?

Do you have solution for your problem or still working on it?
