					| Posting History with userdefined fields  Posted: 13 Feb 07 12:43 PM
 |  
					| fiogf49gjkf0dHi all, I've added a field MYPFID to the activity(System:Activity Details View) and history detail(System:History Details View).
 
 When I add activities, it posts the MYPFID to the activity table just fine.
 When I complete an activity using F3, it DOES NOT post the MYPFID.  I understand that it's being called by the App..BasicFunction.CreateCompletedActivityEx, the System:History  Details posts fine from the Edit, but not when called from the F3 (System:Complete Typed Activity).  I've checked the profiler and it's not passing the MYPFID.
 
 Any ideas for a fix or workaround greatly appreciated.  What good is it to add a UDF to the view if it won't post? My thanks in advance!

					| fiogf49gjkf0dBack in the dark ages prior to having this supported you could get away with slipping it into one of the other fields. ActivityBasedOn and ProcessNode are two of my favorites because they do not trigger any processing. You can also get away with processid, but that will search the process table on completion looking for a match. 
 If you want to keep your data looking clean, you can always just use this to pass things through and then have an "OnCompleted" type handler to move the data back where you want it.
 
 I know this does not fix the problem, but then again we typically don't have time to wait for "official fixes", do we?

					| Completing an activity actually calls the System:History Detail view.  These fields are bound to the history table not the activity table.  Add this procedure, and call it from the AXFormShow event. 
 Sub PopulateCustomFields
 
 'Complete Activity - Populate custom fields
 'The HistoryID is not populated when first completing an activity.
 If Len(Activity.Key) >= 12 And Not(Len(frmHistoryDetails.CurrentID) >= 12) Then
 
 Dim objSLXDB
 Dim rsAct
 Dim SQLTxt
 
 Set objSLXDB = New SLX_DB
 Set rsAct = objSLXDB.GetNewRecordset
 
 SQLTxt = "Select IsNull(Act1.CustomField, '') CustomField, "
 SQLTxt = SQLTxt & "From Activity Act1 "
 SQLTxt = SQLTxt & "Where Act1.ActivityID = '" & Activity.Key & "'"
 rsAct.Open SQLTxt, objSLXDB.Connection
 'MsgBox "11: " & rsAct.RecordCount
 If Not rsAct.EOF Then
 txtCustomField.Text = rsAct.Fields("CustomField").Value & ""
 End If
 If rsAct.State = 1 Then
 rsAct.Close
 End If
 Set rsAct = Nothing
 Set objSLXDB = Nothing
 End If
 End Sub

					| fiogf49gjkf0d this script works  but if the field has type date  and  is null it inserts to history.customdatefield ='12/31/1899 7:00:00pm' 
 In sql string : select IsNull(OEV_Appl_Eff_Date,'')  OEV_Appl_Eff_Date 
 How to fix this issue? 
 Thanks!!! |
