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");
}

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();     ... }
