Transferring values between pages

Overview

Using the same field names, transfers data between pages

A page  Header fields are populated when field names match a field in the response of the calling page (Example 1 and 2)

• Name your fields the same, and values are transferred
• Name your fields differently and values are NOT transferred

Note: The XML response of a calling page, are available as "ContextValues" in the request on the called page.

This is useful to determine where the user "came from", when handling a XML request.

Utilize the standard names

All standard functions uses the same field and header field names:

1. OrderBackendId / BackendID:  Source Document No.

2. LineNumber:  Source Document Line No.

3. Item:  Item No.
4. And more..

Use these names to get your custom fields populated.

• BC always Responds

Example 1: Planned function Line to Unplanned function Header

Scenario

1. The user is viewing "Pick Order Lines"
2. User selects the submenu-action "Locate Item"
3. "Locate Item" also has a field called "Item" in it's Header
   
4. Item No. is now transferred. Because it exits in both the Order result AND the receiving page header.
5. Location is NOT transferred as field "Location" do not exists in the "GetPickOrderLines"-response. Field "Location" can be populated in the response from a customization using the OnGetShipOrderLines_OnAfterSetFromWarehouseShipmentLine event.

Example 2: Transfer Lookup function result to Unplanned function

Scenario

1. The user is viewing a result of the "Bin Content" Lookup function
2. User selects the action "Unplanned Move"
3. "Unplanned Move" also has a field called "Item" in it's Header.
4. Item No. is now automatically transferred, because it exits in both the lookup result AND the receiving page header.

3. The current (single) lookup result values can be transferred to the Header of the Unplanned function
4. Values are subsequently included in the Unplanned function "PostAdhocRegistration" -request

   and
2. <open id="MyUnplannedFunction" title="Edit" icon="mainmenulocateitem" enabled="false"/> to the <actions></actions> tags

Example 4: Transfer Lookup function result values directly to an Unplanned function Action (PostAdhocRegistration)
