Write into the System Event Viewer from Dynamics AX

This is a very short article which shows how to write any information into the system event viewer. This is something that can be very useful when trying to debug processes such as batches that are difficult to debug. One thing to note is that if the code is running on the AOS the information will be written to the EventViewer on the AOS, just something to keep in mind if you don’t see your message in the EventViewer.


static void writeEventLogEntry(Args _args)
{
System.Diagnostics.EventLog eventlog;
#Define.LogSource("Dynamics AX")
#Define.LogName("Application")
;
// check if the log already exists
if(!System.Diagnostics.EventLog::SourceExists(#LogSource))
{
// create new log
System.Diagnostics.EventLog::CreateEventSource(#LogSource, #LogName);
}
eventlog = new System.Diagnostics.EventLog();
eventlog.set_Source(#LogSource);
// write info entry
eventlog.WriteEntry(": Just writing in the event viewer.");
// write error entry
eventlog.WriteEntry(": Please check the stack trace below. \n\n" + 
con2str(xSession::xppCallStack()), System.Diagnostics.EventLogEntryType::Error);
// write warning entry
eventlog.WriteEntry("Job finished." , System.Diagnostics.EventLogEntryType::Warning);
}

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...
