Consider some instances when we may need to invoke an external application from within Sage X3. The best example for such a requirement would be to export data to an excel file or any other format and then open the same using excel or any other application.

Check product: Sage CRM – Sage X3 Integration on Marketplace

Here is how you can do that!

System CHAINE=’#@”C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office12\WINWORD.EXE”‘
System CHAINE='”C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office12\Excel.EXE” “D:\Junk\Default Excel File.xls”‘ (Will open the Excel File “Default Excel File.xls”)

The above command line will open Microsoft Word Application and an Excel File. You can test your command line using Development -> Utilities -> Miscellaneous -> System Orders Option.

Notes:

  • The # represents the application server name if the server is #  the application is launched on the client workstation.
  • The command must be put in double quotes if there are spaces in the interior of the names.
  • Please be aware that the application that you want to execute must be installed on the client, so it’s better to verify and then execute.
  • Secondly executing such commands over the browser is impossible due to the challenges of windows security and firewall (We have not tested though).

Users can also run it in a Batch mode as well.

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...
