You can run a message from code. You can do so to export or import data. For example, you can run a message to:
- Import data: If you want to select a file from a local folder, copy it to your work folder, and process the message to import the data from the file.
- Export data: If you want to export sales orders that get a specific status. For example, all sales orders that get the status Delivered, are exported.
Create custom code
To run a message from code, some code customizations are required. As no changes to standard code are allowed, you can:
- Extend the desired standard D365 FO class or table, if supported.
- Create a new class.
The custom class must be run at a point where you want to run the message. Use this custom class to call and run the message. For example, you can extend the post packing slip code, to run a message when the sales order gets the status Delivered.
In the custom class, add code to:
- Find the message. For example:
BisConMessageTable myMessage = BisConMessageTable::FindRecid(MyMessageReicd); - Create the message arguments. For example:
BisArgs myArgs = new BisArgs(); - Adjust arguments. For example, to add the current record:
myArgs.record(currentRecord); (this is, in the example, the Delivered sales order record) - Optionally, add dialog arguments to define the range. For example:
BisDialogBase myDialog = new BisDialogBase();
myDialog.setFieldValue("company", curext());
myArgs.dialogBase(myDialog);
Note: Make sure, to add the dialog argument as parameter to the applicable document record range. - Run the message. This code processes the message with the defined arguments. For example:
myMessage.run(myArgs);
