Send a report, but change the filename according to caller

My customers has grown tired by the filename 'Axapta report' in class Info -> method reportsend().
I need to change the filename to the name of the caller. But how do I find the caller in class Info -> Method reportsend() ?

Let's see if it works this time.... (it's only the SIXTH time that I try to post this answer :( )

There seems to be no way to get a reference to the ReportRun object; the method PrintJobSettings.ReportRun always seems to return null in reportSendMail.
You could set a property of PrintJobSettings in your report and use that to fill the filename.
Another possible solution (no guarantees) is the following:

Add the following to infolog.reportSendMail:

if (globalCache.isSet(curuserid(),classidget(p1)))
    {
        fileName = globalCache.get(curuserid(),classidget(p1));
        globalCache.remove(curuserid(),classidget(p1));
    }



And to the method SysReportRun.print add the next code (before calling super).

SysGlobalCache  globalCache = infolog.globalCache();
    ;
    if (this.printJobSettings().getTarget() == PrintMedium::Mail)
    {
        globalCache.set(curuserid(),classidget(this.printJobSettings()),this.title());
    }

Dynamics Axapta: Sales Orders & Business Connector

Well, again folllowing my same idea of writting close to nothing and pasting code, I'll paste in some code to create a sales order from some basic data and the invoice it. I'll try to explain more in the future. AxaptaObject axSalesTable = ax.CreateAxaptaObject("AxSalesTable"); AxaptaRecord rcInventDim = ax.CreateAxaptaRecord("InventDim"); AxaptaRecord rcCustTable = ax.CreateAxaptaRecord("CustTable"); rcCustTable.ExecuteStmt("select * from %1 where %1.AccountNum == '" + MySalesOrderObject.CustAccount + "'"); if (MySalesOrderObject.CurrencyCode.Trim().Length == 0) MySalesOrderObject.CurrencyCode = rcCustTable.get_Field("Currency").ToString().Trim(); string sTaxGroup = rcCustTable.get_Field("taxgroup").ToString().Trim(); //set header level fields axSalesTable.Call("parmSalesName", MySalesOrderObject.SalesName.Trim()); axSalesTable.Call("parmCustAccount", M

Passing values between form and class

Class name is EmplDuplication and Form is EmplTable . void clicked() {    MenuFunction mf;    args args = new Args();    ;     args.record(EmplTable);     mf = new menufunction(identifierstr(EmplDuplication), MenuItemType::Action); mf.run(args); } Meanwhile, in the main() method of the EmplDuplication class, we need to put this Axapta x++ code to get the datasource: static void main(Args args) {     EmplDuplication EmplDuplication; EmplTable localEmplTable; ;     if(args.record().TableId == tablenum(EmplTable)) localEmplTable = args.record();     ... }
