How to Automatically Email a Report in Sage Enterprise Management (Sage X3)

How to Automatically Email a Report in Sage Enterprise Management (Sage X3)
During the implementation cycle, we’re often asked if we can set it up so a company can automatically email a report in Sage Enterprise Management (Sage X3) – sales order confirmations when someone places an order, for example, or confirmation invoices when goods are shipped.

By leveraging the destination management and workflow capabilities of Enterprise Management, it’s very possible – easy, in fact – to set it up so that you can click just one button and send an automatically generated email.


As an example, we’ll try to create an environment where we can simultaneously create the invoice from the delivery screen and email the confirmation to our customer.

First, you’ll have to create the email destination and make sure that the parameters are configured to be able to email within the parameter values.

This is where you’ll define the email server IP or mask.

Second, you must define a new report code and its default values. This will allow you to specify which print destination to use.

Note that you can also do that using the destination by user functionality.
These are the default values under setup > destinations > default values.

Next, create the print code for this new report code. Please make sure that it allows for direct print, as that bypasses the print parameters screen and assumes you’ll use all the default print parameters.

You’ll also need to configure the workflow rule and the entry transaction to allow each action to be automated.

And the entry transaction setup as follows:

The only setup you need to worry about is the report code and the auto print flag.
To get this to work with just one click, you need to have only one entry transaction set up. Otherwise, you’ll have to pick the appropriate transaction code before it gets sent.

Now, as soon as you click on the invoice button from the delivery function, it will automatically pop up the print parameters as well as an email to the contact with the buyer function from this specific customer when you choose to print.

It will automatically attach the document to the email like this:

SAGE X3 SILENT IMPORT (IMPORTSIL) WITH ERROR CATCHING

FUENTE ORIGINAL: https://pluginx3.com/en/blog/post/sage-x3-silent-import-importsil-with-error-catching.html You already know how to manually generate a CSV file in order to import it threw a template in Sage X3. But If you wonder how to catch detailed errors after a silent import here is the solution. Sometimes you need to catch the incoming errors in order to alert the end-user regarding an issue. Closed period, wrong date etc …. Unfortunalty the standard Sage X3 silent import function doesn’t natively show the detailed errors during the import process. Call IMPORTSIL([M:IMP2]MODIMP,[M:IMP2]NOMIMP) From GIMPOBJ And the standard function ERR_IMPORT will only show the overall status of the importation and not the detailed errors. IMPORTSIL function is pushing all the log data into a tracefile in order to avoid any popup on end-user screen. So you have a log file available in order to search for errors in it. Sage X3 runtime is using the same principals standards as any shell for log...

How To Add a Custom Selector for the Screen Field

Fuente original del artículo:   https://www.rklesolutions.com/blog/how-to-add-a-custom-selector-for-the-screen-field January 5, 2022 By RKL Team Leave a Comment There may be times when you want to add a pop-up window to select a field for a screen. Sometimes this can be handled automatically if the field is a standard X3 object field (i.e. when selecting a product with a type of ITM from the ITMMASTER table). There may be other times where a standard look-up is not available, and some custom code is required to do the selection window. We'll show you how to add a custom selector of your choosing to the screen field. ADD SELECT ON SCREEN FIELD The first step is to add the appropriate code to the field on the screen in Sage X3: Go to  Development > Script Dictionary > Screens Select Your Screen Select the field to have the lookup for  by moving your cursor to it on the screen.
