In our blog, Launching Pop up window in Sage X3, we saw how we can launch a Window from a button click. Now, we might also need to access some data from the source screen as well. So, in this blog we will see how we can pass on data (parameters) from the source window to the new window through buttons.
- Open the action used to launch the window.
- Go to Parameters tab and add required Parameters along with the desired data type. The Argument type field has two options namely, By Address and By Value.
By Address – the value of the modified parameter is returned to the calling process.
By Value– the value of the parameter even if it is modified is not passed to the calling process.
So, choose the Argument type as required.
- Now, open the Source window and go to the “Buttons/menus” tab and select the button used for launching the window. You should see the “Parameters” set on the action in the below grid.
- Now, set the values for these parameters. The value can contain a constants string(not with pass by address), a screen field, functions or on-line variables at the time of call.
- Now you can access these Parameters in the class code of the new screen using the “PARAM” key word. PARAM(1) denotes the first parameter and so on.
