Event in Matrix with BOM?

Question

Hi expert,
As you can see i'm new in developing and I have e lot of boring questions
Problem is that:
I want to copy from OITM values from UDF into the standard document "Quotation" rows.
So, I want OITM.U_II_001 field value will be copied in field U_II_001 in the matrix of quotation document.
Actually, i trap the event et_VALIDATE. When I insert a New ItemCode the code is executed:
if (pVal.ItemUID == "38" & pVal.EventType == SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_VALIDATE & pVal.Before_Action == true)
     // ColUID = 1 is "ItemCode"
     if (pVal.ColUID=="1")
          string oValore;
          oValore = ReadItemCode(pVal) ;
          AddNewValueInRow(pVal, oValore);
This code runs well if I add manually single rows in document.
Problem is that: If I add an Item with BOM, the code is not executed for each item in the BOM!
How can I solve the problem? I want to execute the code to fill the UDF fields for each item in BOM too...
Exist other event I need to trap instead of et_VALIDATE?
Could you say me where I can to find this kind of informations?
Thanks in advance,

Answer 1

Thanks for your Interest!
This is the code where I inizialize connections (UI and DI).
Finally I add an event handler to manage the change value for ItemCode in the body of document:
        public QuotationForm()
            SetApplication();
            SetConnectionContext();
            ConnectToCompany();
            SBO_Application.ItemEvent += new SAPbouiCOM._IApplicationEvents_ItemEventEventHandler( SBO_Application_ItemEvent );
This is the code where I trap the et_VALIDATE event for ItemCode column:
private void SBO_Application_ItemEvent( string FormUID, ref SAPbouiCOM.ItemEvent pVal, out bool BubbleEvent )
       BubbleEvent = true;
       if ( ( ( pVal.FormType == 149 & pVal.EventType != SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_FORM_UNLOAD ) & ( pVal.Before_Action == true ) ) )
            // Item 38 = Matrix
            if (pVal.ItemUID == "38" & pVal.EventType == SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_VALIDATE & pVal.Before_Action == true)
                 // ItemCode Column
                 if (pVal.ColUID == "1")
                      string oValore;
                      oValore = ReadItemCode(pVal);
                      AddNewValueInRow(pVal, oValore);
Finally, the two methods.
First to Read the ItemCode inserted in row
The second read data from OITM and fill fields in matrix.
This code read the ItemCode from column 1 of matrix in the quotation form:
        private string ReadItemCode( SAPbouiCOM.ItemEvent pVal )
            SAPbouiCOM.Matrix oMatrix;
            SAPbouiCOM.EditText oValore;
            try
                oMatrix = (SAPbouiCOM.Matrix)oQuotationForm.Items.Item("38").Specific;
                oValore = (SAPbouiCOM.EditText)oMatrix.Columns.Item("1").Cells.Item(pVal.Row).Specific;
                return oValore.Value;
            catch (Exception ex)
                SBO_Application.MessageBox("Impossibile leggere ItemCode: " + ex.Message);
                throw;
And this method read from OITM and fill fields in form:
        private void AddNewValueInRow(SAPbouiCOM.ItemEvent pVal, string oValore)
            SAPbouiCOM.Matrix oMatrix;
            try
                string s;
                SAPbobsCOM.Items oArticoli;
                oMatrix = (SAPbouiCOM.Matrix)oQuotationForm.Items.Item("38").Specific;
                oArticoli = (SAPbobsCOM.Items)oCompany.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oItems);
                oArticoli.GetByKey(oValore);
                s = oArticoli.UserFields.Fields.Item("U_II_001").Value.ToString();
                oMatrix.SetCellWithoutValidation(pVal.Row, "U_II_001", s);
                s = oArticoli.UserFields.Fields.Item("U_II_002").Value.ToString();
                oMatrix.SetCellWithoutValidation(pVal.Row, "U_II_002", s);
                s = oArticoli.UserFields.Fields.Item("U_II_003").Value.ToString();
                oMatrix.SetCellWithoutValidation(pVal.Row, "U_II_003", s);
                s = oArticoli.UserFields.Fields.Item("U_II_004").Value.ToString();
                oMatrix.SetCellWithoutValidation(pVal.Row, "U_II_004", s);
                s = oArticoli.UserFields.Fields.Item("U_II_005").Value.ToString();
                oMatrix.SetCellWithoutValidation(pVal.Row, "U_II_005", s);
            catch (Exception ex)
                SBO_Application.MessageBox("Impossibile Impostare la colonna U_II_001: " + ex.Message);
                throw;
As i wrote, the event et_VALIDATE when the item inserted has a BOM of type MODEL runs only for parent item and NOT for children.
