How to call an external REST web services in classic functions

In this blog, I like to show an example of how you can call an External/Outgoing REST web services in a classic function.

Before we get to the example , the API used for this is called ASYRRESTCLI and the function used is EXEC_REST _WS.

So if you search our online help for ASYRRESTCLI you will see below.




Please note that this is just a simple example(there might be other ways to accomplish this). The external API call is going to a free JSON API http://fixer.io/ ( you can read more about this API by visiting their website)

The requirement presented for this example is that we like to have a button in Purchase order entry that shows the current exchange rates.

  1. Open Administration, Administration, Web Services, Rest web services.
  2. Click on New REST web service to create a new REST web service connection.
  3. Enter the information like below ( for information on each field review online help)




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





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



    $ACTION
    Case ACTION
     When "EXEBOUT"    : Gosub BOUTON
    Endcase
    Return

    ##############

    $BOUTON

    If BOUT="3"  ###### this is the code of our button in Window dictionary
      # Contains the result header and body
      Local Clbfile RESHEAD(0),RESBODY(0)
      Local Integer RETVAL
      # No additional parameter nor additional header value are given here (only the values given in ORDER definition are used)
      Local Char PCOD(100)(1..10),PVAL(100)(1..10),HCOD(100)(1..10),HVAL(100)(1..10)
       RETVAL=func ASYRRESTCLI.EXEC_REST_WS("ExchangeRate","GET","/latest",PCOD,PVAL,HCOD,HVAL,"{}", 0,"",RESHEAD, RESBODY)

      If RETVAL=200 : infbox(RESBODY) : Else infbox("somwthing Went wrong") : Endif

    Endif
    Return

  14. Click Save and Compile.
  15. Now open Purchasing, Orders, Orders.
  16. Select an existing Purchase order.
  17. Click on your newly created button.



  18. Clicking on the button will produce below.




Conclusion: You can use ASYRRESTCLI and function EXEC_REST_WS to execute an outgoing web service call

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  ...
