UDT and UDF - User-defined Tables and Fields

Question

Dear All,
I am writing a Query to permit the Cashier to check her Cash entries and balances on a Daily basis.
Basically, it's a General Ledger, but I want the Query - Selection Criteria window to display only a few GL codes namely GL codes 1240601, 1240602, 1240603 etc.
I don't know if I am doing it right. This is what I did (SAP B1 8.8):
UDT
I created a UDT called TEST2 using:
Tools -> Customization Tools -> User-defined Tables - Setup
UDF
Then I created a field in the UDT called GlCod using User-Defined Fields - Management
Title : GlCod
Description : GL Code
Type : Alphanumeric 30
Field Data
In the Field Data window, I ticked the Set Valid Values for Fields checkbox and filled in the blanks as follows:
#                  Value                Description
1                 1240601             Cash in Hand (Rs)
2                 1240602             Cash in Hand (USD Notes)
3                 1240603             Cash in Hand (Euro Notes)
etc...
Query
Then I wrote my Query (see below).
When I run it, I get the Selection Criteria screen as I wanted:
Query - Selection Criteria
GL Code                                   ...............   (arrow here)
Posting Date                              ...............
[OK]                [Cancel]
When I click on the GL Code arrow, I get a window with the exact choices I need. It looks like this:
1240601 -  Cash in Hand (Rs)
1240602 -  Cash in Hand (USD Notes)
1240603 -  Cash in Hand (Euro Notes)
Executing the Query
The Query seems to run normally, but nothing is generated on the screen, and there's no Error Message.
What can be wrong about this query?
I suspect that the GL codes in JDT1 and TEST2 are not of the same data type, so that INNER JOIN returns nothing.
Thanks,
Leon Lai
Here's my SQL
declare @TEST2 TABLE
(GlCod varchar(30))
declare @GlCod nvarchar (30)
set @GlCod =/*SELECT T0.U_GlCod from [dbo].[@TEST2] T0 where T0.U_GlCod=*/  '[%0]'
declare @refdt datetime
set @ref=/*SELECT T1.RefDate from [dbo].[JDT1] T1 where T1.RefDate=*/ '[%1]'
select
t1.Account as 'GL Code',
t1.RefDate as 'Posting Date',
t0.U_GlCod as 'Restricted GL Codes'
from JDT1 T1
INNER JOIN @TEST2 T0 ON T0.[U_GlCod] = T1.[Account]
WHERE
t1.RefDate <= @refdt
and
t0.U_GLCod = @GlCod

Answer 1

Try this:
declare @GlCod nvarchar (30)
set @GlCod =/*SELECT T0.U_GlCod from [dbo].[@TEST2] T0 where T0.U_GlCod=*/  '[%0]'
declare @refdt datetime
set @refdt=/*SELECT T1.RefDate from [dbo].[JDT1] T1 where T1.RefDate=*/ '[%1]'
select
t1.Account as 'GL Code',
t1.RefDate as 'Posting Date'
from JDT1 T1
WHERE
t1.RefDate <= @refdt
  and
T1.[Account] = @GlCod
(There is no need to declare the memoria table @test2 if you already created one table with this name.
And there is no need to a join.)
