Custom Print Invoice Action on Process Screen - acumatica

Question

I am trying to have a print invoice Action on my new process screen which points to new custom report taking Customer Ref Nbr as a parameter. Any help on how to start with this?

Answer 1

In Acumatica redirection to another page (points to new custom report) is done by throwing redirection exceptions. For redirecting to a report page the exception you should use is 'PXReportRequiredException'.
Code for launching your custom report with parameter:
public PXAction<Customer> printInvoice;
[PXUIField(DisplayName = "Print Invoice", MapEnableRights = PXCacheRights.Select, MapViewRights = PXCacheRights.Select)]
public virtual IEnumerable PrintInvoice(PXAdapter adapter)
{
Customer customer = [fetch desired customer record here];
if (customer != null && customer.RefNbr != null)
{
// Add your report parameters to a Dictionary<string, string> collection.
// The dictionary key is the parameter name as shown in the report editor.
// The dictionary value is the value you assign to that parameter.
Dictionary<string, string> parameters = new Dictionary<string, string>();
parameters["RefNbr"] = customer.RefNbr;
// Provide your custom report ReportID
string reportID = "AR641000";
// Provide a title name for your report page
string reportName = "Customer Invoice"
// Redirect to report page by throwing a PXReportRequiredException object
throw new PXReportRequiredException(parameters, reportID, reportName);
}
return adapter.Get();
}
You can look up the parameter names in the Parameters tab of the Schema Builder dialog of Acumatica Report Designer:
