Managing Conditional Formatting in Sage Enterprise Management (Sage X3)


Managing Conditional Formatting in Sage Enterprise Management (Sage X3)
Often, when our prospects are evaluating Sage Enterprise Management (Sage X3) and trying to differentiate it from other competing products, they’re very impressed with the level of personalization and flexibility that comes inherent with the product.

You can think of conditional formatting as automatic formatting that’s triggered by conditions you define. For example, you can use conditional formatting to automatically change the color of cells that contain values greater than or less than certain values. Conditional formatting is a great way to visually highlight important information and, as part of our demonstrations, we’re frequently asked to show how Sage Enterprise Management can color code certain fields based on a set of business rules.

While prospects are typically impressed at Enterprise Management’s ability to do this, we find that they rarely take advantage of it once the system is implemented. The intention of this blog is to remind our clients and tell prospects how simple this feature really is, and hope that it can be quite useful for many users.

Here’s an example scenario – what if you could know, at a glance, that you’re short on an item or that you fell under the acceptable margin for the calculated net price? Using conditional formatting, a visual queue can easily and quickly show you when something isn’t right, allowing you to manage the exception and make your operation run more smoothly.


Here's how to use conditional formatting in Sage Enterprise Management:

Identify field that needs to be formatted.

In summary, the conditional formatting feature is a great way to visualize data and make information “pop” for the end-user, allowing for quick decision-making. If you’re working in a grid with many line items (such as a large sales order imported from your e-commerce site), it would be extremely difficult to see patterns and trends of the raw data without conditional formatting.

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...
