How to delete AOT nodes by code (UtilIdElements solution)

in my old post: How to delete AOT objects (AX/Axapta), I have used the TreeNode class. There is another useful method by using the UtilIdElements system table described in the following links:

- MS KB 913530 (CustomerSource)
- forum topic: microsoft.public.axapta.programming - Currupt records in UtilIdElement and UtilElements

Warning: Serious problems might occur if you modify the UtilIdElements table using this or another method. Modify system tables at your own risk.

The code:


static void Job1(Args _args)
{
UtilIdElements utilElement;
;

ttsbegin;

select utilElement
where utilElement.name == 'myElementName'
&& utilElement.utilLevel == utilEntryLevel::cus // any layer
&& utilElement.recordType == utilElementType::Table; // object type

if (utilelement)
{
utilElement.delete();

ttscommit;
info('Record should be deleted now.');
}
else
{
ttsAbort;
info('Could not delete record, or it was not found.');
}
}

What does this mean: "The form datasource query object does not support changing its AllowCrossCompany property after the form has executed the query."?

I have made a form with datasources vendtable and vendtrans. Inside vendtable_ds.executequery() looks like this: QueryBuildDataSource queryBuildDatasource ,queryBDS_VendTrans_Invoice; ; queryBuildDatasource = this.query().dataSourceTable(tablenum(vendtable)); queryBDS_VendTrans_Invoice = this.query().dataSourceTable(tablenum(vendtrans)); if (curext() == "MASTERCOMP") { this.query().allowCrossCompany(true); } else { this.query().allowCrossCompany(false); } //FilterVendorName = stringedit control on form if (FilterVendorName.text()) { queryBuildDatasource.addRange(fieldNum(VendTable,Name)).value(strfmt("*%1*", FilterVendorName.text())); } else { queryBuildDatasource.clearRange(fieldNum(VendTable,Name)); } //FilterInvoiceNumber = stringedit control on form if (FilterInvoiceNumber.valueStr() == "") { queryBDS_VendTrans_Invoice.enabled(false); } else { queryBDS_VendTrans_Invoice.enabled(true); queryBDS_VendTrans_In...

calculate total sales order or sales quotation amount / discounts / tax etc., through code( X++ ) in AX

this can be achieved through code using SalesTotals class. Check out the below code snippet.

We can get the values in the desired currency by providing a valid currency as a parameter to the displayFieldsCurr...
