How to know value of the current variable

By | June 12, 2017

Sage X3 provides a special variable to know the current variable value in case of input, initialization, selection or help mode.

Variable:

[S]zc

The type of ZC depends on the context. That is it corresponds to the type of the variable being entered (at the time the check or help is executed) or being initialised.

It means if you are entering any integer value then ZC will hold type as an integer. If you are entering characters then ZC will hold type as alphanumeric.

Let’s have a look on below snippet for better understanding:
In an event associated with a mask, we are checking the YQTY field value.
If zc < 100, we are assigning 100 to zc(i.e. zc=100).

Subprog C_YQTY(VALEUR) # event called from the mask
Variable Integer VALEUR()
If zc < 100
zc = 100
Endif
End # Return to mask

Description:

ZC gives access to the “current zone”, that is to the variable defined as such by the Adonix execution context.
The current zone exists in the following cases:

  • a formula or routine called from a mask in the validity control zone. zc then represents the value entered by the user and it may be reassigned by the verification routine,
  • a formula or routine called from a mask as the default value. If zc has been modified, its value is then copied to the variable corresponding to the mask,
  • a routine called from a mask by the help key. zc also represents the variable being entered and it may similarly be reassigned,
  • during a calculation, zc corresponds to the zone being entered.
