Example: Create a Report with a Group Check Box [AX 2012]
Updated: April 30, 2014
Applies To: Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3
The following example provides information about how the BOMPartOf report was converted to use the current report programming model. This report provides an example of a report that requires a group check box in the UI.
-
The BOMPartOf report was migrated to the current report programming model.
-
An RDP contract was created.
-
The UI builder was used together with overrides so that the UI includes a group check box.
Before the conversion, the helper class did the following:
-
Add the fields to the dialog box.
-
Get the fields from the dialog box.
-
Set the report parameters.
-
Provide the grouping.
To see the full implementation, in the development workspace, click AOT > Classes > BOMPartOfUIBuilder. The following code illustrates how to create a form group control, and how to use the control in the build method, the getFromDialog method, and the getSearchIntervalFromDialog method.
public void build()
{
FormBuildGroupControl formBuildGroupControl;
super();
formBuildGroupControl = this.dialog().curFormGroup();
formBuildGroupControl.columns(2);
}
public void getFromDialog()
{
super();
this.getSearchIntervalFromDialog(this.dialog());
}
protected void getSearchIntervalFromDialog(Dialog _dialog)
{
BOMPartOfContract contract = this.dataContractObject();
FormGroupControl dialogSearchIntervalGroup = _dialog.formRun().control(_dialog.formRun().controlId('Date'));
contract.parmSearchInterval(dialogSearchIntervalGroup.optionValue());
}
The following code illustrates the contract for the BOMPartOf report.

SysOperationContractProcessingAttribute(classstr(BOMPartOfUIBuilder),
