How can I make automatic generated column in Adempiere ? - window

I have two columns called Quantity and Issued Quantity. I want that when I put value in Quantity column, for instance 3, the Issued Quantity will automatically generate 3. Also I want it to happen the other way around.
The example is on Purchase Order window, PO Line tab. in Quantity section. When I put 4 in Quantity field, the PO Quantity field automatically generate 4.
I try to imitate the column and field but it doesn't work.

This is accomplished in Adempiere by a Callout which is configured in what Adempiere calls the Application Dictionary
From the example you gave; updating the qty on the Purchase Order.
If you login to Adempiere using the System user, you can view and modify the Application Dictionary.
From the main menu select Application Dictionary->Table & Column.
In the Search box that opens enter C_OrderLine as the DB Table name.
Now Column tab and scroll down the list to locate the QtyEntered column. Switch to the Form view and near the end you will see were you can enter the field Callout.
You should see that the C_OrderLine.QtyEntered field already has a value "org.compiere.model.CalloutOrder.qty; org.compiere.model.CalloutOrder.amt" which indicates it should run the method qty in the class org.compiere.model.CalloutOrder followed by the method amt in the org.compiere.model.CalloutOrder class.
If you open those classes you can see how easily you can evaluate and modify values. Breaking some of of it down for you... if you open the CalloutOrder.java class you cab scroll down until you find the qty method.
public String qty (Properties ctx, int WindowNo, GridTab mTab, GridField mField, Object value)
{
You need use the signature as above for any new callout method you create. Follow that approach and Adempiere will look after passing the correct values for you
if (isCalloutActive() || value == null)
return "";
It's good practice to start the method with the above ensure you do not open a Callout from within a Callout - which would break the Adempiere rules.
int M_Product_ID = Env.getContextAsInt(ctx, WindowNo, "M_Product_ID");
Is an example of how you could extract values from the existing window... the syntax would remain the same regardless of Column/Field the you just need to enter the "M_Product_ID" which is the Field name you wish to extract to use.
Now this Callout is called by more than one Column/Field so it is littered with a big if...then...else to executed the logic needed for the relevant field. It's not pretty, but this is aimed at business developers who will concentrate more on business logic than coding principals.
The code you are interested in is
else if (mField.getColumnName().equals("QtyEntered"))
{
int C_UOM_To_ID = Env.getContextAsInt(ctx, WindowNo, "C_UOM_ID");
QtyEntered = (BigDecimal)value;
BigDecimal QtyEntered1 = QtyEntered.setScale(MUOM.getPrecision(ctx, C_UOM_To_ID), BigDecimal.ROUND_HALF_UP);
if (QtyEntered.compareTo(QtyEntered1) != 0)
{
log.fine("Corrected QtyEntered Scale UOM=" + C_UOM_To_ID
+ "; QtyEntered=" + QtyEntered + "->" + QtyEntered1);
QtyEntered = QtyEntered1;
mTab.setValue("QtyEntered", QtyEntered);
}
QtyOrdered = MUOMConversion.convertProductFrom (ctx, M_Product_ID,
C_UOM_To_ID, QtyEntered);
if (QtyOrdered == null)
QtyOrdered = QtyEntered;
boolean conversion = QtyEntered.compareTo(QtyOrdered) != 0;
log.fine("UOM=" + C_UOM_To_ID
+ ", QtyEntered=" + QtyEntered
+ " -> " + conversion
+ " QtyOrdered=" + QtyOrdered);
Env.setContext(ctx, WindowNo, "UOMConversion", conversion ? "Y" : "N");
mTab.setValue("QtyOrdered", QtyOrdered);
}
The code
mTab.setValue("QtyOrdered", QtyOrdered);
Is where it sets the value of the other quantity field Qty Ordered.
Also, the call must not be Java. It is possible to link any [JSR223 script][3]. I never actually tried this approach myself, but it is even possible to implement Callouts using the Drools Rules Engine!

Dynamics crm + Plugin code to store sum formula across a entity collection

I have the below requirement to be implemented in a plugin code on an Entity say 'Entity A'-
Below is the data in 'Entity A'
Record 1 with field values
Price = 100
Quantity = 4
Record 2 with field values
Price = 200
Quantity = 2
I need to do 2 things
Add the values of the fields and update it in a new record
Store the Addition Formula in a different config entity
Example shown below -
Record 3
Price
Price Value = 300
Formula Value = 100 + 200
Quantity
Quantity Value = 6
Formula Value = 4 + 2
Entity A has a button named "Perform Addition" and once clicked this will trigger the plugin code.
Below is the code that i have tried -
AttributeList is the list of fields i need to perform sum on. All fields are decimal
Entity EntityA = new EntityA();
EntityA.Id = new Guid({"Guid String"});
var sourceEntityDataList = service.RetrieveMultiple(new FetchExpression(fetchXml)).Entities;
foreach (var value in AttributeList)
{
EntityA[value]= sourceEntityDataList.Sum(e => e.Contains(value) ? e.GetAttributeValue<Decimal>(value) : 0);
}
service.Update(EntityA);
I would like to know if there is a way through linq I can store the formula without looping?
and if not how can I achieve this?
Any help would be appreciated.
Here are some thoughts:
It's interesting that you're calculating values from multiple records and populating the result onto a sibling record rather than a parent record. This is different than a typical "rollup" calculation.
Dynamics uses the SQL sequential GUID generator to generate its ids. If you're generating GUIDs outside of Dynamics, you might want to look into leveraging the same logic.
Here's an example of how you might refactor your code with LINQ:
var target = new Entity("entitya", new Guid("guid"));
var entities = service.RetrieveMultiple(new FetchExpression(fetchXml)).Entities.ToList();
attributes.ForEach(a => target[a] = entities.Sum(e => e.GetAttributeValue<Decimal>(a));
service.Update(target);
The GetAttributeValue<Decimal>() method defaults to 0, so we can skip the Contains call.
As far as storing the formula on a config entities goes, if you're looking for the capability to store and use any formula, you'll need a full expression parser, along the lines of this calculator example.
Whether you'll be able to do the Reflection required in a sandboxed plugin is another question.
If, however, you have a few set formulas, you can code them all into the plugin and determine which to use at runtime based on the entities' properties and/or config data.

APEX Office print

I am currently working with the Apex Office Print it would be nice if you could help me with two points.
I am creating a template with a lot of fields, and around 50% of
these fields are optional, so they are often only (null) in my
database. Can I do something so that the fields with no value are not
shown?
My second question would be the work with the print function and
checkboxes. How do I integrate the item APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01 so
that I only print the content of a selected checkbox ? It is not
really working in the PL/SQL section.

The {tag} will just be removed when it's empty. In case you want to make some blocks disappear you can wrap that in a condition,
for example:
{#tags=null} {product_name}: {product_description} {/tags=null} {#tags!=null} {product_name}: {tags} {/tags!=null}
or if you have a value:
{#checked=="Yes"}☒Yes ☐No{/checked=="Yes"}{#checked!="Yes"} ☐Yes ☒No {/checked!="Yes"}
My second question would be the work with the print function and checkboxes. How do I integrate the item APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01 so that I only print the content of a selected checkbox ? It is not really working in the PL/SQL section.
Are you running the AOP Process type plugin or the Dynamic Action plugin?
For example we use it for ourself when selecting invoices and printing them.
We have a checkbox in an IR:
apex_item.checkbox2(
p_idx => 1,
p_value => id,
p_attributes => 'class="invoice_id"',
p_checked_values => :P39_INVOICE_ID_LIST,
p_checked_values_delimiter => ',') as chk,
And then we have a Dynamic Action on change that sets an hidden item (P39_INVOICE_ID_LIST) on the page:
var
//Checkbox that was changed
$checkBox = $(this.triggeringElement),
//DOM object for APEX Item that holds list.
apexItemIDList = apex.item(this.affectedElements.get(0)),
//Convert comma list into an array or blank array
//Note: Not sure about the "?" syntax see: http://www.talkapex.com/2009/07/javascript-if-else.html
ids = apexItemIDList.getValue().length === 0 ? [] : apexItemIDList.getValue().split(','),
//Index of current ID. If it's not in array, value will be -1
idIndex = ids.indexOf($checkBox.val())
;
//If box is checked and it doesn't already exist in list
if ($checkBox.is(':checked') && idIndex < 0) {
ids.push($checkBox.val());
}
//If box is unchecked and it exists in list
else if (!$checkBox.is(':checked') && idIndex >= 0){
ids.splice(idIndex, 1);
}
//Convert array back to comma delimited list
apexItemIDList.setValue(ids.join(','));
In our query in the AOP DA we have:
where i.id in (select regexp_substr(:P39_INVOICE_ID_LIST,'[^,]+', 1, level) invoice_id
from dual
connect by regexp_substr(:P39_INVOICE_ID_LIST, '[^,]+', 1, level) is not null)
and we make sure the P39_INVOICE_ID_LIST is set in session state by specifying the Affected Elements of the AOP plugin call.
If you setup an example of what you want to do on apex.oracle.com I'm happy to build you the example there. In AOP 4.0 we will also include an example with checkboxes.
Hope that helps,
Dimitri

Google Sheets - Dependent drop-down lists

I am recreating and expanding on a doc I had previously made. I have already brought in the script I had used originally, and tweaked it where I believed appropriate to get it working in this sheet, but I must have missed something. Editable samples of the 3 spreadsheet files involved can be found here. These files are a sample "Price List", "Catalog"(which aggregates manufacturer names from all price lists, and also has a "Catalog" tab for misc items not sold by one of my primary vendors), and "Addendum B" which is the file I require assistance with.
This document is an addendum to my contracts which lists all equipment being sold as part of that contract. It has 2 sheets in it ("Addendum B" and "XREF"), and "Addendum B" has several dependent columns: Vendor, Manufacturer, Model, Description, and Price. Their dependencies are as follows:
Currently Working
Vendor: Basic data validation pulling from XREF!A2:A.
Not working, script in file
Manufacturer: Based on the Vendor selected, should be a drop-down
list generated from the column headed with that vendor's name on
"XREF".
Now here's were it gets tricky beyond what I had previously done.
Model: I want this column to be a drop-down listing all model numbers
associated with that manufacturer, from a completely separate price
list provided to me by my vendor. (I have shared a sample price list which reflects column positions as they appear in all such files.
Description: Displays the corresponding description for the Model selected, from the price list selected in the Vendor column.
Price: Displays the corresponding markup price for the Model selected, from the price list selected in the Vendor column.
And that about summarizes my goals and what I'm struggling with.
So I looked into your script file in sheet Addendum B.
I have made few edits and it should be working now, the modified code:
function onEdit()
{
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet(),
sheet = ss.getActiveSheet(),
name = sheet.getName();
if (name != 'Addendum B') return;
var range = sheet.getActiveRange(),
col = range.getColumn();
if (col != 6) return; //You col was set to 5 changed it to 6!
var val = range.getValue(),
dv = ss.getSheetByName('XREF'),
data = dv.getDataRange().getValues(),
catCol = data[0].indexOf(val),
list = [];
Logger.log(catCol)
for (var i = 1, len = 100; i < len; i++) // Problem is here, you have too many items in list! Cannot have more 500 items for validation
list.push(data[i][catCol]);
var listRange = dv.getRange(2,catCol +1,dv.getLastRow() - 1, 1)
Logger.log(list)
var cell = sheet.getRange(range.getRow(), col-1)
var rule = SpreadsheetApp.newDataValidation()
.requireValueInRange(listRange) // Use requireValueIn Range instead to fix the problem
.build();
cell.setDataValidation(rule);
Logger.log(cell.getRow())
}
The reason your validation was not working was you had more than 500 items in your data validation list. I just modified it to take the same values from range instead. Hope you find that helpful!
Now for the remaining 3 questions, here are my comments and thoughts on it:
1) I didn't find any code related to the problem you mentioned in your question. So, I am gonna assume you are asking for general ideas on how to achieve this?
2) You basically approach the problem the same as you did with the above code! Once a manufacturer is selected, the script looks for that manufacturer in the sheet and update the Data validation in the corresponding model column.
You will modify the code like so
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openById("1nbCJOkpIQxnn71sJPj6X4KaahROP5cMg1SI9xIeJdvY")
//The above code with select the catalog sheet.
dv = ss.getSheetByName('Misc_Catalog')
//The above code will open the Misc_Catalog tab.
3) A better approach would be to use Sidebar/Dialog Box to validate your input then add it to the sheet at the end. (Looks Cleaner and also prevents unnecessary on edit trigger in the sheet, which can take a while to update.)

Errors when grouping by list in Power Query

I have a set of unique items (Index) to each of which are associated various elements of another set of items (in this case, dates).
In real life, if a date is associated with an index, an item associated with that index appeared in a file generated on that date. For combination of dates that actually occurs, I want to know which accounts were present.
let
Source = Table.FromRecords({
[Idx = 0, Dates = {#date(2016,1,1), #date(2016,1,2), #date(2016,1,3)}],
[Idx = 1, Dates = {#date(2016,2,1), #date(2016,2,2), #date(2016,2,3)}],
[Idx = 2, Dates = {#date(2016,1,1), #date(2016,1,2), #date(2016,1,3)}]},
type table [Idx = number, Dates = {date}]),
// Group by
Grouped = Table.Group(Source, {"Dates"}, {{"Idx", each List.Combine({[Idx]}), type {number}}}),
// Clicking on the item in the top left corner generates this code:
Navigation = Grouped{[Dates={...}]}[Dates],
// Which returns this error: "Expression.Error: Value was not specified"
// My own code to reference the same value returns {0,2} as expected.
CorrectValue = Grouped{0}[Idx],
// If I re-make the table as below the above error does not occur.
ReMakeTable = Table.FromColumns(Table.ToColumns(Grouped), Table.ColumnNames(Grouped))
in ReMakeTable
It seems that I can use the results of this in my later work even without the Re-make (I just can't preview cells correctly), but I'd like to know if what's going on that causes the error and the odd code at the Navigation step, and why it disappears after the ReMakeTable step.
This happens because when you double click an item, the auto-generated code uses value filter instead of row index that you are using to get the single row from the table. And since you have a list as a value, it should be used instead of {...}. Probably UI isn't capable to work with lists in such a situation, and it inserts {...}, and this is indeed an incorrect value.
Thus, this line of code should look like:
Navigate = Grouped{[Dates = {#date(2016,1,1), #date(2016,1,2), #date(2016,1,3)}]}[Idx],
Then it will use value filter.
This is a bug in the UI. The index the UI calculates is incorrect: it should be 0 instead of [Dates={...}]. ... is a placeholder value, and it generates the "Value was not specified" exception if it is not replaced.

Prevent Available stock become minus

It's possible that in Adempiere, Inventory Stock become negative. One of the way to make it become negative is when we put Quantity in Internal Use Inventory more than Available Stock in Warehouse.
Example
Product Info
------------
Product || Qty
Fertilizer || 15
It's shown in Product Info that the current Qty of Fertilizer is 15. Then I make Internal Use Inventory document
Internal Use Inventory
----------------------
Product || Qty
Fertilizer || 25
When I complete it, Quantity will be -10. How can I prevent Internal Use Inventory being completed when Quantity is more than Available Stock so that I can avoid negative stock ?
This is purposely designed functionality of Adempiere. Under some scenarios the Inventory is allowed to become negative because it is felt in those scenarios it is better to allow the process to complete but being negative it highlights a problem that must be addressed. In the case of the Internal Use the user is warned, that the stock will go negative if they proceed.
To change this standard functionality you need to modify the
org.compiere.model.MInventory.completeIt()
But if you change the code directly, it will make it more difficult to keep your version in sync with the base Adempiere or even just applying patches.
The recommended approach would be to add a Model Validator. This is a mechanism that watches the underlying data model and enables additional code/logic to be injected when a specific event occurs.
The event you want is the Document Event TIMING_BEFORE_COMPLETE.
You would create a new model validator as described in the link, register it in Adempiere's Application Dictionary and since you want your code to trigger when Inventory Document Type is executed you would add a method something like this
public String docValidate (PO po, int timing)
{
if (timing == TIMING_BEFORE_COMPLETE) {
if (po.get_TableName().equals(MInventory.Table_Name))
{
// your code to be executed
// it is executed just before any (internal or physical)
// Inventory is Completed
}
}
return null;
} // docValidate
A word of warning; the Internal Use functionality is the same used by Physical Inventory (i.e. a stock count) functionality! They just have different windows in Adempiere. So be sure to test both functionalities after any change is applied. From the core org.compiere.model.MInventory there is a hint as how you might differentiate the two.
//Get Quantity Internal Use
BigDecimal qtyDiff = line.getQtyInternalUse().negate();
//If Quantity Internal Use = Zero Then Physical Inventory Else Internal Use Inventory
if (qtyDiff.signum() == 0)
In order to prevent the stock from being negative you can use two methods
Callout in Code
BeforeSave Method
In order to apply it in Callout you need to create a Callout class and get the current Stock Qty at the locator there and then subtract the qty from entered Qty and if the result is less than 0 , display the error. Apply this on the Qty field and you will get the desired result.
This is slightly better way , as this doesn't needs creating a new class in code altogether and will consume less memory altogether , Search for MInventoryLine class in code and then search for beforesave() in it. Add the same code (getting the stock and then subtracting it from the entered Qty). The Code in beforesave() will be like this
if (your condition here) { log.saveError("Could Not Save - Error", "Qty less than 0"); return false; }
Now I am assuming that you know the basic code to create a Callout and design a condition, If you need any help , let me know.
Adding to the answer of Mr. Colin, please see the below code to restrict the negative inventory from the M_Inventory based transaction. You can consider the same concept in M_Inout and M_Movement Tables also.
for (MInventoryLine line : mInventory.getLines(true))
{
String blockNegativeQty = MSysConfig.getValue("BLOCK_NEGATIVE_QUANTITY_IN_MATERIAL_ISSUE","Y", getAD_Client_ID());
if(blockNegativeQty.equals("Y"))
{
//Always check the on Hand Qty not Qty Book Value. The old Drafted Qty Book Value may be changed alredy.
String sql = "SELECT adempiere.bomqtyonhand(?, ?, ?)";
BigDecimal onhandQty = DB.getSQLValueBD(line.get_TrxName(), sql, line.getM_Product_ID(), mInventory.getM_Warehouse_ID()
, line.getM_Locator_ID());
BigDecimal QtyMove = onhandQty.subtract(line.getQtyInternalUse());
if(QtyMove.compareTo(Env.ZERO) < 0)
{
log.warning("Negative Movement Quantity is restricted. Qty On Hand = " + onhandQty
+ " AND Qty Internal Use = " + line.getQtyInternalUse()
+ ". The Movement Qty is = " + QtyMove);
negativeCount ++;
negativeProducts = negativeProducts + line.getM_Product().getName() + ": " + onhandQty + " ; ";
}
}
}
if(negativeCount > 0)
{
m_processMsg = "Negative Inventory Restricted. "
+ " Restriction has been enabled through the client level system configurator."
+ " Products : " + negativeProducts;
}
return m_processMsg;
