rename items quickly

Here is a little script to rename items quickly. Just provide a CSV file with old and new item number. I found that making the CSV file was faster than making a job to intelligently rename items because I could use Excel functions and review the new item numbers faster

static void renameFromCSV(Args _args)
{
#File
CommaIO file;
Container values;
Dialog dialog;
DialogField dfFileName;
LineNum lineNum;
ItemID itemIDfrom;
ItemID itemIDto;
InventTable inventTable;
;
setPrefix(funcName());
dialog = new Dialog("Rename items");
dialog.filenameLookupFilter(["@SYS39829", #AllFilesName + #csv]);
dfFileName = dialog.addField(typeid(FileNameOpen));
if (!dialog.run() || !dfFileName.value()) return;
if (!WinAPI::fileExists(dfFileName.value()))
throw error(strfmt("@SYS18678", dfFileName.value()));
file = new CommaIO(dfFileName.value(), #io_read);
if (!file) throw error("@SYS74299");
values = file.read();
while (values != connull())
{
setPrefix(strfmt("Row %1 for %2", lineNum, conpeek(values, 1)));
if (conlen(values) != 2) throw error('Bad row');
itemIDfrom = conpeek(values, 1);
itemIDto = conpeek(values, 2);
if (InventTable::exist(itemIDfrom))
{
if (!InventTable::exist(itemIDto))
{
ttsbegin;
inventTable = InventTable::find(itemIDfrom, true); inventTable.ItemId = itemIDto;

inventTable.renamePrimaryKey();

ttscommit;
info(strfmt("%1 to %2", itemIDfrom, itemIDto)); } else
error(strfmt("@SYS93964", itemIDto));
}
else
error(strfmt("@SYS94719", itemIDfrom));
lineNum++;
values = file.read();
}
info("@SYS78985");
}

Mark All for Open Cust Trans and Open Vend Trans

We have situations where there are lots of open transactions that need to be settled against each other. This can be the case if auto settlement is turned off. One solution is to add a "Mark All" button to the custOpenTrans or vendOpenTrans forms. This button "checks" the mark checkbox on every line. The user can then uncheck several lines if needed and Update to settle the lines. The code below is an example of what we used on the open vendor transaction screen. The code is very similar on the AR side. One note: I used vendTable.AccountNum in the code below. That should be generalized to work with any buffer that is passed into the open trans form. void customMarkAll() { VendTransOpen localVendTransOpen; VendTrans localVendTrans; container conSum; int linesProcessed; ; //show wait cursor startLengthyOperation(); element.lock(); //remove all prior markings specOffsetVoucher.deleteSpe...
