Open Orders Widget

Hello,

For anyone who is familiar with creating custom standard widgets I am trying to build an Open Orders widget for one of my Homepages. I have attached an image I came across and was wondering whether this users Open Orders widget was configured from a widget delivered by Infor or if the user built the widget on his own. Any information to point me in the right direction to creating an Open Orders Widget would be very helpful, thank you.

Hi, This is not a standard widget.

The closest you can come with standard is to configure an aggregated API with CMS100MI and then use that and configure the Information viewer. It will not look the same but it is the closest you can get with standard. I don't know exactly how to create that custom list in CMS100 since I don't know M3 in that detail but perhaps someone else on this forum does.

Regards

Hi!

I have been using both the information viewer and the information monitor to show open orders. If I just want to know how many open order lines we have at the moment for example, then the monitor is the best choice. You have to create a CMS100MI-transaction based on for example OOLINE. If you want to make the widget a bit more detailed and only see for example delayed orders you have to use SQRY as input.

The information viewer is to be used when you want to see a list of orders directly on the homepage (use CMS100MI to create a transaction that gives you what you need). But note that you will only see max 100 records in the viewer, so you need to make sure your selection is narrowing down your orders to show max 100, otherwise the user might be confused sine the homepage might show 100 orders while the M3 program shows more.

Great, thank you both for the information. This is very helpful.

I unfortunately am using SX.e and do not have access to any of the features M3 offers. Is there an SX.e solution for creating a custom open orders menu?

I am also taking a look into the SDK: https://github.com/infor-cloud/homepages-widget-sdk

Would it be worth taking a look into acquiring some of the features M3 offers to solve creating custom widgets?

Thanks again for the help!
