Chain of Command

Chain of command is used for extending Standard Table, Form and Class methods without customizations.

Important Keywords:

next(), className_Extension

Here, gave an example for generating number sequence in Standard modules

STEP I:

Create DataType of String for generating number sequence.

Ex: PurchaseOrderSeqId

Rahul R
STEP II:

Key points is to end the name with “Extension” and use the ExtensionOf attribute.

Ex:

[ExtensionOf(classStr(NumberSeqModulePurchaseOrder))]

final class NumberSeqModuleCustomer_Extension

protected void loadModule()

next loadModule();

NumberSeqDatatype datatype = NumberSeqDatatype::construct();

datatype.parmDatatypeId(extendedTypeNum(PurchaseOrderSeqId));

datatype.parmConfigurationKeyId(configurationKeyNum(PurchOrder));

datatype.parmReferenceHelp(literalStr("Purchase order sequence number"));

datatype.parmWizardIsContinuous(false);

datatype.parmWizardIsManual(NoYes::No);

datatype.parmWizardFetchAheadQty(10);

datatype.parmWizardIsChangeDownAllowed(NoYes::No);

datatype.parmWizardIsChangeUpAllowed(NoYes::No);

datatype.parmWizardHighest(999999);

datatype.parmSortField(1000);

datatype.addParameterType(NumberSeqParameterType::DataArea, true, false);

this.create(datatype);

STEP III:

Add a method that returns a reference to the number sequence. Best practice is to put the method on the module’s
parameters table.

Ex:

[ExtensionOf(tableStr(PurchParameters))]

final class PurchParameters_Extension

public static NumberSequenceReference numRefPurchaseOrderSeqId()

return NumberSeqReference::findReference(extendedTypeNum(PurchaseOrderSeqId));

NOTE: (try not to use classStr instead of tableStr)

STEP IV:

Create a Runnable class (JOB) to execute following code to generate the number sequence in module.

Ex:

class LoadNewDataTypes

public static void main(Args _args)

NumberSeqModulePurchaseOrder module = new NumberSeqModulePurchaseOrder ();

module.load();

info(“Number sequence is generated !!!”);

}

STEP V:

Go to Organization administration / Number sequence / Number sequence to create number sequence

Rahul R
Click Generate as highlighted below,

Click Next and select the number sequence for the companies.
