Cross System Event?

Hi,

I am working on some integrations between FactoryTrack and Syteline 10.

I have a report that I have programmed in Syteline that works fine. I have built an event & trigger that fires the report and all is good. Where I am struggling is how can I call this event from FactoryTrack using its event system? I need to pass parameters to the event, like a CO Number and in order to do the FireEventSP I would need to run SQLs to insert parameters before the event.

Does anyone have any ideas on the best way to accomplish this?

Thanks
Ryan

you could check genericsendemailsp for an usage example of FireEventSp;

if you're report is using SL db context data, you'll need to create in SL an IDO method that fires event or report - call the method from FTK; i do not have an example of hand-written IDO that calls and event, but theoretically the method could also be just an SP.

There are some steps here, and Ill do my best to remember what all I had to do. Im sure I did some things wrong and maybe someone on here could help me improve as well!

In my case I am writing to a table in Syteline from Factory track, and displaying that data in Factory track, but you can call another event the same way.

In syteline, create your IDO and IDO Extension class assembly to run the method.

In Factory Track you will create an IDO and an IDO extension class assembly to send the parameters to syteline.

Do me a solid and ignore some of my stupidity here wit hthe makeBarcode function

The key is the this.ExecuteERPUpdateRequest.

Now with this in place I always forget the form Web service connectors.

You need to link the 2 idos together.

I did find the document "Infor Factory Track CSI Extensibility Guide" helpful - https://support.infor.com/esknowbase/root/DLPublic/62357/Infor%20Factory%20Track%20Extensibility%20Guide%20for%20CSI.pdf

Feel free to hit me up if you need more info. This one made my head spin for a good bit!

Oh wow - thats pretty advanced just to get an event to work! Thanks for the information though - I will see what I can get going in our system with this.

Yeah I hope I went too deep down a wrong path, been there done that before! So my hope is, my putting the wrong answer somewhere will get someone to correct me.

that is pretty much what is needed Jason....thanks for sharing.

@Ryan - again, if your report does not print any data from SL db you only need to make the report/event in FTK and call it in FTK; otherwise you need to go down the rabbit hole
