How to call an external REST web services in classic function in Future(asynchronous) mode?


Autor: https://www.sagecity.com/members/esfahani

Previously here I discussed how you can call an external REST web services in classic function in Wait(synchronous) mode, and in that blog post I demonstrated an example using ASYRRESTCLI API to get exchange rates from a JSON API called http://fixer.io/.
Today I like to show , How you can run the same call in Future(asynchronous) mode.
The difference between Wait and Future mode, is that for the first one which is synchronous , the call has to wait until receives a response back from the external REST web service, while on the Future ( asynchronous) a unique identifier is created, and you can later on retrieve the result of your external call with that UUID.
As previous blog mentioned you can read more about ASYRRESTCLI API in online help by searching for ASYRRESTCLI.



So here is the same example in Future mode. Note that since the time of the last blog on this topic http://fixer.io/ has changed slightly , and you would need to register and get an access key in order to use their service. So here are the steps:
  1. Follow last blog entry to create the REST web services record, and also the button in OPOH window to call the exchange rate.
  2. In SPEPOH program defined like last time, use mode 1 (future mode) in your ASYRRESTCLI call.



    This will create a UUID , and I save that UUID to a screen field for now( obviously depends on the context you may save that to a database field).


  3. Open Development, Script Dictionary, Windows.
  4. Select OPOH windows.
  5. Click on Buttons/menus Tab.
  6. Enter a new line like below.



  7. Click Save and Validate.
  8. Open Setup, Purchasing, Entry transactions, Orders.
  9. Select your entry transaction and click Validate.
  10. Open Development, Script Dictionary, Scripts, Script editor.
  11. Enter SPEPOH for the file name.
  12. Enter below code.


    If BOUT="4"
      Local Clbfile RESHEAD(0),RESBODY(0)
      Local Integer RETVAL
      # Call GET_FUTURE funProg to retrieve the callback result
      RETVAL= func ASYRWEBSER.GET_FUTURE([M:POH0]ZUUID, RESHEAD, RESBODY)  #####here I am passing the UUID from the screen field I added the UUID to)
      If RETVAL=200 : infbox(RESBODY) : endif
      If RETVAL <> 200
         Infbox("somwthing Went wrong")
      Endif
    Endif
  13. Click Save and Compile.
  14. Now open Purchasing, Orders, Orders.
  15. Select an existing Purchase order.
  16. Click on the link to call the Exchange rate web services.

  17. Now click on the newly created button , which is called Show the exchange rate.

Conclusion: You can use ASYRWEBSER.GET_FUTURE to get the result of a previously called REST web service in Future mode.

Valores de fstat

Fstat fstat  is a numeric status that is returned upon execution of a database operation, a sequential file operation, or a lock instruction. Syntax fstat Examples # MYTABLE is a table with a key called KEY1, that has a unique component called KEYVAL # Create a record in the table MYTABLE with they key value 1 if it doesn't exist Local File MYTABLE [MYT] Read [MYT]KEY1=1 If fstat [MYT]KEYVAL=1 : Write [MYT] If fstat MSG="The key was created in the mean time" Else MSG="Key created" Endif Else MSG="Key already exists" Endif Details fstat  is always set to '0' if the operation is successfully completed, and has a non-null value if there is an error: In a sequential read ( Getseq  and  Rdseq ),  fstat  is set to '1' at the end of the file. On  Lock ,  fstat  is set to '1' if the lock could not be performed. For a database operation ( Read ,  Look ,  Readlock ,  For ,  Write ,  ...

How to create an additional line text (ACLOB) on purchase orders for internal notes

Sin conexión Kyle Klinger hace 1 día Origen:  https://www.sagecity.com/support_communities/sage_erp_x3/f/sage-x3-general-discussion-forum/143870/how-to-create-an-additional-line-text-aclob-on-purchase-orders-for-internal-notes I was trying to add internal notes to the purchase orders at a line level and was thought I would share a how to.  If you have a better way, please share.     Add column to PORDERQ; YLINTEX2, Type TXC   Save and validate table This is where the ID of the text will be stored at the record level, i.e. POQ~00000007, this is similar to field LINTEX  On screen POH2 Add column YLINTEX2, to Block 1. Most likely you will want this field to be hidden. On column NBLIG add a button action ACLOB2, description "Text internal" This button action will require an action parameter "CODE2", it will not be available until after save. Set the parameter "CODE2" to [M:POH2]YLINTEX2(nolign-2), the field that was just added....

3 ways to send a mail from code in Sage X3, with more attachments too

Origen Fuente:  https://en.sagedev.it/sagex3/send-mail-from-code-with-attachments-sage-x3/ Autor:  https://en.sagedev.it/category/sagex3/ In this post I’ll show you how to send a mail from adonix code in Sage X3. The points we will face are: 1) Meladx/Send introduction 2) Sending  through  meladx (the best way for me: at the end with just a single code line you send a mail!) 3) Sending  through  Workflow 4) Sending  through  ENVOI_MAIL(…) From AWRKMEL Sending mail from code in Sage X3: Send vs meladx Sage X3 has two native ways for sending mails. The first way is  meladx  executable file, that you can find in  runtime\bin  directory. The seconde one is Send instruction, that was used to send mail through an application of the client station (for more information on “Send GSERMES”  go here ). The Meladx executable Meladx send messages through SMTP/POP3 protocols by means of the mail  ...
