Base Processing BPM

Yahoo Archive
1
Just created the base process with a comment in the 4GL code on our test server & the base method is not triggering at all. I have to add the disclaimer that this is Very dangerous & could cause all sorts of data issues, but it will work for what we need as long as the method only validated the lot number & nothing else.

During the Webex there was not any talk about base processing. From what I know this actually completly overrides the Method called by the BO. I am pretty sure this can be dangerous if you do not know exactly what you are doing. I would like to find out more about this portion of BPMs though. For example, during receipt entry every time a new lot is created it asks. Would you like to create a new lot.

Epicor.Mfg.Proxy.ReceiptImpl.CheckDtlLotInfo is the method being called & from the source it says:
This method returns an error or question if the LotNum field does not exist depending upon the security of the user.(by the way, It would be great if there was a place that describes every BO method like the source code does)

In theory using base processing could I ignore this method?

Do we have anybody on the group who has created or bypassed a base method using a BPM?

Michael,



Actually we did talk about Base Processing; you'll be able to see that
in the power point and the recording. My perception or spin was the
same as yours. I have not yet to date tried to develop a practical
application to address a business case using Base Processing. Frankly
I'd love to see and hear more from Epicor and what they think about this
type of directive and put a little more information out there on it.

During the Webex there was not any talk about base processing. From what
I know this actually completly overrides the Method called by the BO. I
am pretty sure this can be dangerous if you do not know exactly what you
are doing. I would like to find out more about this portion of BPMs
though. For example, during receipt entry every time a new lot is
created it asks. Would you like to create a new lot. In our environment
every receipt line is a new lot & most receipts have 20 or more lines.

Epicor.Mfg.Proxy.ReceiptImpl.CheckDtlLotInfo is the method being called
& from the source it says:
This method returns an error or question if the LotNum field does not
exist depending upon the security of the user.(by the way, It would be
great if there was a place that describes every BO method like the
source code does)

In theory using base processing could I ignore this method?

Do we have anybody on the group who has created or bypassed a base
method using a BPM?

Yes, I did see where it was briefly talked about.
I would love if anybody could chime in on more details about the base
processing. I think I recall hearing somewhere that it requires additional config to be done on the server end but I am not 100% sure about tha.

I didn't get into .net actions either because to use those you do have
to actually install and setup what they call a BPM server. Something
more than what's normally installed, that and development and deployment
of the .asp pages make it a lot more daunting for the average user
(include me in that group).
