Working with Model/Extensions (Part 2) - D365

Use objects of other models in our custom model and solve reference error.

In this part we will solve the common issue usually faced at the beginner stage while development in D365. 

Let's say we need to search for the attachment in a sales order. We will find it through job using x++ query.


Create a job ( Runnable class)




We need to use DocuRef table in our query to search for the attachments of the sales order. 



Now, when we build the project it will show the error shown below in the image.


Following error "does not denote a class. . . " usually occurs when the model of the project does not refer to the model of the objects using in it. 
DocuRef table belongs to the other model i.e. Application Foundation. Which is not included in our custom model AXGuru_Customizations.



We need to update our model which we have previously discussed the steps in Part 1. For ease, I am showing steps here too.

Go to tab Dynamics365 > Model Management > update model parameters...
select the model AXGuru_Customizations then click Next.


Check the ApplicationFoundation Model. Then click Next and click Finish on the next screen.

Our model is updated now with the reference of ApplicationFoundation model. Which means that we can now use objects related to this model in our custom model. 

Build the solution. 


Build completed successfully.

Cross Company queries - X++

Image
When we create a query in X++, it fetches record only for the company that we are logged in. If we want to get records for multiple companies, we have the keyword in X++. i.e. crossCompany. Select query: For example, Let’s say we write the following query. SalesTable            salesTable; while select * from salesTable {     i nfo(strfmt(“%1”,salesTable.SalesId)); } It will return only the records from the company we are logged into. Now we want to get records from all companies. We will need to write following query. while select crossCompany salesTable {     info(strfmt(“%1”,salesTable.SalesId)); } This crossCompany keyword will return all the companies record. If we want to get specific companies records, we need to use container . For example, container specificComp = [‘USMF’,’USMR’]; while select crossCompany : specificComp salesTable {     info...

Adding  SysOperationContractProcessingAttribute  in contract class will use controls modified in UI Builder class. Use LIST as a data type as we can have multiple selected companies. Code: [ DataContractAttribute,    SysOperationContractProcessingAttribute( classStr (TestReportUIBuilder)) ] class TestReporContract {      List     legalEntity; } Now add new method for company parame...

Positive Pay File -  D365  Convert XSLT file to CSV format. Positive pay files are created using data entities. The input file format must be only of XML type. Therefore, we need to create an a file with the extension XSLT ( Extensible Style sheet Language Transformation ). Create an XSLT file.
