Thread: Custom Code snippet Property

Custom Code snippet Property Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

Posted: 04 Nov 08 12:52 PM

I'm in 7.5 trying to create a code snippet property which returns a value based on some values in an extension table.

When doing the build, I get errors saying that an object reference is required. How to I add the object reference I need? Can someone an example of such a code snippet property?

Thanks,

Which object are you trying to use? Can you paste the code snippet here?

Here's what I have (not finished but a start that should work):

public static void GetDaysDelinqStep1( IAccount account, out System.String result)
{
String DaysDelinq;
if (Sage.Entity.Interfaces.ICDaysdelinq.Accountid != null)
{
if (Sage.Entity.Interfaces.ICDaysdelinq.Agebal04 >0)
{
DaysDelinq = ">90";
}
else
{
DaysDelinq = "Something else";
}
}
else
{
DaysDelinq = "N/A";
}
return DaysDelinq;
}

Here's one of the errors I get during the build:

ERROR - C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.DOMAIN\Application Data\Sage\Platform\Output\Sage.SnippetLibrary.CSharp\src\Sage.SnippetLibrary.CSharp.@.9f262c59-eed8-4261-b79c-36a7c0a7f735.codesnippet.cs(37,17):An object reference is required for the nonstatic field, method, or property 'Sage.Entity.Interfaces.ICDaysdelinq.Accountid.get'

You haven't instantiated a ICDaysdelinq object. The Interface definition won't have a value unless you have an instance declared. Like below:

Sage.Entity.Interfaces.ICDaysdelinq CDaysObj = this.BindingSource.Current as Sage.Entity.Interfaces.ICDaysdelinq;

Then reference the CDaysObj where you're referencing the Interface in the rest of the code.

Now I'm getting:
'Sage.BusinessRules.CodeSnippets.AccountBusinessRules' does not contain a definition for 'BindingSource'

Sorry, I'm fairly new to C#.

Is ICDaysdelinq an extension of the Account entity? If that's the case, then it would likely be account.CDaysdelinq.Accountid and account.CDaysdelinq.Agebal04 that you should use instead, I would guess.

Because you are in a Business Rule you do not have this.BindingSource.Current - this is part of the page. As Andy says you can use the account entity being passed into the Business Rule to join to your table - this will work if your delinq...table is an extension table of Account. If not, you can generate an entity instance of your delinq (sorry havent got the name of the entity you are after on this reply screen

), and then set your properties. I.e something like:

Sage.Entity.Interfaces.Idelinq del = Sage.Platform.EntityFactory.GetById(account.Id.ToString());

del.PROPERTY = account.PROPERTY;
del.Save();

It is an extension table, so how do I join it?

BTW, I am doing this as a custom property rather directly in the Account Detail because the customer may ask me to drive logic in other views (Ticket, etc) off of the value I am creating. If I make it a custom property then the value would be available to any process that is linked to Account. Make sense?

You access it through the account entity being passed into the business rule...so you would use account.YOUREXTENSIONTABLE.YOUREXTENSIONPROPERTY
