Link button in BOM matrix

Hi,
This link button is able to discriminate between BOMs and nonBOMs. We would like to open a third form - ours - when the BOM line item has a certain characteristic. Is there a way to intercept the click on the link button before it works?
Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike,
You can intercept the click on the linked button before it is opened. It is an Item_Pressed event.
There is a tool called EventLogger that can help you in cases like this one. You can download it from main SDN B1 page -> SDK Tools menu in the right side of the page. With this tool you can see the events that are fired by B1 when you do a specific action in B1 app.
Hope it helps

How to use a link button in a matrix

Hi, I'm trying to create a matrix with a column that uses a link button to call a Sales order.. how can i do it? i'm new in SBO!

Hi,
You can do it in 2 differents ways:
1. With the ScreenPainter. Set the column property "Type" with the value "et_LINK_BUTTON" and the property "LinkObjectType" with the value of the Business Object (for Sales Orders, the value is "17").
2. Directly on the XML file. You can see and example below.
<column uid="col" type="116" title="Parte" description="" visible="1" AffectsFormMode="0" width="55" disp_desc="0" editable="1" right_just="0" val_on="" val_off="" backcolor="-1" forecolor="-1" text_style="0" font_size="-1">
<databind databound="1" table="" alias="col"/>
<ExtendedObject linkedObject="17" LinkedObjectType="17"/>*
</column>
The most important things are the properties "type" (116 for linked button) and "linkedObject" and "LinkedObjectType" (17 for Sales Orders).
I hope this can help you.

Link button does not link to the right record.

Hi,
I have created a matrix, and I have made one of the column type as link button. The matrix is loaded with Sales Quotation record, and the DocNo column is a link button. For example, when i pressed the link button of record with DocNo = 10, but the Sales Quotation form pop out is record with DocNo = 8, anyone encountered this problem??? anyone have any solutions on this???
I have tried this with other marketing document object, such as Sales Order and Invoice, the same problem occured... huh, one more thing, if i did not set the document numbering series, the code is working fine, once i set the document numbering series, then this problem will happen ... hope to hear from you guys ...thanks in advanced!!!

Hi,
I suppose the reason of this behavior is that the link button relates using the DocEntry value, and not the DocNum fields value.
What we usually do is to have 2 columns, on the first the DocEntry, and in the second one the DocNum. Then we set the DocEntry Column´s width to 20, and then only the orange arrow is shown.
This way, you get the behavior and appearance you need.
Hope that helps.

Linked button in a Grid (SBO 2005)

Hy,
Is it possible to add a linked button in a grid? I saw some posts for linked buttons in a matrix but this doesn't work for me.
The code that I use to fill the grid is:
               Item GOrder = form.Items.Item("GOrder");
               Grid gOrder = ((Grid)(GOrder.Specific));
               int intCountDatatable = 0;
               try
                    form.DataSources.DataTables.Item("TOrder").ExecuteQuery(strSQL);
               catch
                    return;
               gOrder.DataTable = form.DataSources.DataTables.Item("TOrder");
If you (all) need more info, just let me know. Hope you can help...
Joeri

Hey Joeri!
My guess it isn't possible; if you look through the UI-API, you'll see that there isn't a BoLinkedObject property, and no possibility to set a column to a linkedbutton type...
Good luck,

LINKED BUTTON after return; Refresh

Hi,
I have build a Matrix with Linked Button to Draft Invoice.
I like to refresh my Matrix when I come back to my Matrix.
Any code suggestion?
Thank you,
Rune

When I click on my Linked Button in my Matrix I go to Draft Invoice and create a Invoice; When I close my Draft Invoice I return back to my Matrix but the row is still in my Matrix; I need to refresh the Matrix when I retur from the Draft Invoice; I do not care if the user create or not a invoice (I refresh:)
How do i know if the user clicked the linked button to Draft Invoice and return back to my Matrix?
Nice to be back on Forum...
Thank you,
Rune

Link Button In Grid or Matrix ?

Hello,
I'm trying to populate a grid with data from a SQL query, using a datatable datasource, but I don't know how to specify which fields are to have drill-down(link buttons). After looking at this thread :
Linked button in a Grid (SBO 2005)
I'm left wondering how the Business One Report Generator can generate a grid with link buttons attached to the appropriate fields, when it is only given a SQL query.
I'm thinking I might have to use a matrix, but how can i populate the matrix when if i don't know what the SQL query will be in advance?, also can I achieve the grouping using a matrix that the grid automatically does ?

Hello Welch,
Both Matrix and Grid can work with LinkButton. And regarding Grid, first of all, you need to define the gridcolumn type as gct_EditText, then in EditTextColumn Object, there is a property named LinkedObjectType, please set the property as in Matrix column.
' First define the column as EditText type
oCol = oGrid.Columns.Item("Col1")
oCol.LinkedObjectType = 4
Hope this helps,
Nick

Add linked button to a editText field

Hello everybody,
i'm trying to add a linked button to a text field in the header of a JournalEntry. So far i've been able to add it on one of the columns of a document matrix.
Can anybody help me, please?
Ciao
Marco

You need to create a new link button object, set the "linkto" property to point to the UID of the edittext containing the data, and set linkedobject to point to the target object (eg. business partners, items ...)
Set sboItem = sboItems.Add("LINK", it_LINKED_BUTTON)
sboItem.LinkTo = "10" 'UID of separate edittext containing the data.
Set sboLink = sboItem.Specific
sboLink.LinkedObject = lf_BusinessPartner

Copying Documents Object Links attached to BOM Headers & Items in Prod Ord

Dear Gurus,
I've created a BOM for an assembly. This BOM has document assignments at 3 places -
1. BOM Header level (in BOM Header overview - Document Assignment tab)
2. BOM Item level (in BOM Item: All Data - Document Assignment tab)
3. Document assigned as a BOM Item with Item Category D (in BOM General ITem overview - Document tab)
When I create the Production Order for this assembly, only the document that is assigned as a BOM Item with Item Category D (point#3 above) is copied into the order.
I'm not able to view the document links for the documents as described in points 1 and 2 above.
The necessary configurations in Production Scheduling Profile have been done for integration with DMS.
I need to know if there is a way (probably through some user exit, BADI or by implementing some SAP Note), the object links for documents attached to BOM Header and BOM Items can also be transferred to a Production Order.
Please help me out in resolving this issue as it is a very critical requirement of the client.
With Regards,
Nitin

Hi Niraj,
If you follow following path in the Production Order Header. click on the Document Overview (SHIFT+F7) Button
You could be able to see the Links for Material Master attached Documents. there is a Button for BOM origin documents. I tried but it didnt worked. I hope it works for you. If it works for you. Please let me know.

How to add link button in Query generator

Hi,
I am trying to add link button in Query reports. While the query is for system table it automatically gives columns with link button but how to do this for user Tables.

Hi,
Even by standard, this is not possible only when you using UDO.
You can create your form with Matrix, and use FlushToDataSource Method to load large amount of data inside. Now you can program the linked button click (et_MATRIX_LINK_PRESSED) by columns.

How to add linked button in grid?

Hi,
Does anyone know how to add linked button in a grid? I can't find it but i saw someone ask similar question but seems none of them works.
Thanks a lot!
P.S. For some reason, i can't use matrix because the data is from a SQL query.
Lan

Hi,
as far as I know it is not possible, since this adjustment is made for the whole column. I have created a grid and I open the shown document by double clicking the row header. In the grid I can see if it is sales or purchase and so I use a workaround by opening the specific system form (e.g. sales invoice) in find mode and search the document by document number (also shown in the grid).
Sample:
oSBOapp.ActivateMenuItem("2053"); //sales invoice
oForm = oSBOapp.Forms.ActiveForm;
oForm.Mode = SAPbouiCOM.BoFormMode.fm_FIND_MODE;
oEdit = (SAPbouiCOM.EditText)oForm.Items.Item("8").Specific;
oEdit.Value = Convert.ToString(dNum);
oForm.Items.Item("1").Click(SAPbouiCOM.BoCellClickType.ct_Regular);
By the click event, you get the specific row number. Hope it helps...
Regards
Sebastian
