Password style Dialogs and validate the password in Active Directory [Dynamics AX, X++]

This post will be helpful in creating the dialogs with the password style dialog fields in it.
Also, once the passwords have been provided by the user, the code will validate the password of the current logged in user in the active directory and will provide the relavant messages accordingly.
Note: AxaptaUserManager class is used to validate the password.This class is also helpful to generate passwords, validate domain etc.
Below is how the dialog looks with password style dialog fields.


static void SR_PasswordDialogs_validateADUser(Args _args)
{
Dialog d = new Dialog(“Password style dialogs and validate password in Active directory”);
DialogField dfPass1, dfPass2;
UserInfo userInfo;
AxaptaUserManager axUserManager;
;
dfPass1 = d.addField(typeid(password), “Enter password”, “Enter password.”);
dfPass2 = d.addField(typeid(password),”Re-enter password”, “Re-enter your password to validate”);
dfPass1.passwordStyle(true);
dfPass2.passwordStyle(true);
if (d.run())
{
userInfo = xUserInfo::find(false, curuserId());
axUserManager = new AxaptaUserManager();
if (strcmp(dfPass1.value(), dfPass2.value()))
throw error(“@SYP1505″);
if (axUserManager.validatePassword(userInfo.networkAlias , userInfo.NetworkDomain, dfPass1.value()))
{
info(“Password matches with the Active directory password :) “);
}
else
{
warning (“Password doesn’t match with the Active directory password :( “);
}
}
}

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...
