Friends,
In this post, we will learn how to add dialog fields and get run time lookups on the dialog field in AX 2012 SSRS reports. In Dynamics AX 5.0, we used to get this by overriding dialog, dialogpostrun, controlMethodOverload, Field_runTimeFieldId_lookup/modified methods etc.
In AX 2012 there is a class by name “SrsReportDataContractUIBuilder” to serve the same purpose.
Example : In the below screen shot, I have added dialog field “Filter by Cust” and in the lookup it will only display the customers who belongs to
customer group “20”.
Interesting right, now lets see how to accomplish this:
Create a new Query by name “SRCustTable” and add data source as “CustTable” as shown below
Then create a new temporary Table by name TmpSRSalesTable and add 2 fields CustAccount and SalesId fields as shown below.
Now, we need to create contract classes, DP class and Builder class as shown below.
Follow the below classes and methods.
SRCustomLookupUIBuilder Class:
Create a new class by name SRCustomLookupsUIBuilder that should extend SrsReportDataContractUIBuilder as shown below
class SRCustomLookupsUIBuilder extends SrsReportDataContractUIBuilder
{
DialogField dialogAccountNum;
DialogGroup dialogGroup;
boolean enable;
}
The below accountNumLookUp method will help to get the runtime lookup based on the query defined in the code [customer group – 20]
private void accountNumLookup(FormStringControl accountNumLookup)
{
Query query = new Query();
QueryBuildDataSource qbds_CustTable;
SysTableLookup sysTableLookup;
QueryBuildRange qbr;
if (accountNumLookup != null)
{
// Create an instance of SysTableLookup with
// the current calling form control.
sysTableLookup = SysTableLookup::newParameters(tablenum(CustTable), accountNumLookup);
//sysTableLookup.addLookupMethod(
// Add fields to be shown in the lookup form.
qbds_CustTable = query.addDataSource(tableNum(CustTable));
sysTableLookup.addLookupfield(fieldnum(CustTable, AccountNum), true);
sysTableLookup.addLookupfield(fieldnum(CustTable, CustGroup),false);
qbr = qbds_CustTable.addRange(fieldNum(CustTable,CustGroup));
qbr.value(’20′);
sysTableLookup.parmUseLookupValue(false);
sysTableLookup.parmQuery(query);
// Perform the lookup.
sysTableLookup.performFormLookup();
}
}
/// <summary>
/// Builds the dialog.
/// </summary>
/// <remarks>
/// The dialog appears with the parameters.
/// </remarks>
public void build()
{
SRCustomLookUpContract rdpContract = this.dataContractObject();
dialogAccountNum = this.addDialogField(methodstr(SRCustomLookUpContract,parmAccountNum),rdpContract);
dialogAccountNum.lookupButton(2);
}
public void postRun()
{
Dialog dialogLocal = this.dialog();
DialogField dialogField;
super();
// This method should be called in order to handle events on dialogs.
dialogLocal.dialogForm().formRun().controlMethodOverload(false);
// Override the methods of department field.
dialogField = this.bindInfo().getDialogField(this.dataContractObject(), methodstr(SRCustomLookUpContract, parmAccountNum));
dialogField.registerOverrideMethod(methodstr(FormStringControl, lookup), methodstr(SRCustomLookupsUIBuilder, accountNumLookup), this);
}
Note : we can even use intializeFields and getfromdialog overridden methods to initialize values and get the values from dialog.
Contract class
[DataContractAttribute,
SysOperationContractProcessingAttribute(classstr(SRCustomLookupsUIBuilder))
]
class SRCustomLookUpContract
{
AccountNum accountNum;
}
Add parmAccountNum method as shown below
[DataMemberAttribute('AccountNum')
]
public AccountNum parmAccountNum(AccountNum _accountNum = accountNum)
{
accountNum = _accountNum;
return accountNum;
}
DataProvider class
[
SRSReportQueryAttribute(queryStr(SRCustTable)),
SRSReportParameterAttribute(classStr(SRCustomLookUpContract))
]
class SRCustomLookupDP extends SRSReportDataProviderBase
{
SRCustomLookUpContract contract;
TmpSRSalesTable tmpSRSalesTable;
}
/// <summary>
/// executes the logic based on the parameter entries
/// </summary>
/// <remarks>
/// fills up the temp table
/// </remarks>
[SysEntryPointAttribute]
public void processReport()
{
Query query;
QueryRun qRun;
QueryBuildRange qbr;
CustTable custTable;
contract = this.parmDataContract() as SRCustomLookUpContract;
query = this.parmQuery();
qbr = query.dataSourceNo(1).addRange(fieldNum(CustTable, AccountNum));
qbr.value(contract.parmAccountNum());
qRun = new QueryRun(query);
while(qRun.next())
{
custTable = qRun.get(tableNum(custTable));
this.insertInToTempTable(custTable.AccountNum);
}
}
public void insertInToTempTable(AccountNum _accountNum)
{
SalesTable salesTable;
;
while select salesTable where salesTable.CustAccount == _accountNum
{
tmpSRSalesTable.CustAccount = _accountNum;
tmpSRSalesTable.SalesId = salesTable.SalesId;
tmpSRSalesTable.insert();
}
}
[
SRSReportDataSetAttribute('TmpSRSalesTable')
]
public TmpSRSalesTable getTmpSRSalesTableDetails()
{
select * from tmpSRSalesTable;
return tmpSRSalesTable;
}
We are done with all the classes and I have already posted in my earlier blogs how to add this data provider classes as a dataset data source. Follow the same process and create a new SSRS report in visual studio 2010 and save the report to AOT and deploy as well.
Once you invoke the report from within AX, you will get the parameters from as shown below and runtime lookup clearly shows all the customers who belong to customer group 20. Click on Ok button.
You should see the result as shown below: you can use layout and table style templates for beautification.
That’s it for now.
Good day!
Happy Dax6ng,
