I originally posted this question about a week ago and didn't get any
response back so I thought I would try again... Also I have been
working on this and I have part of my problem already solved so here
is where I am at now...
I am able to create a BPM that creates the landed cost on each receipt
item without the users involvement (the user does have to assign and
dispurse landed cost but doesn't have to enter an amount in). This
BPM gets fired off when the user clicks on the "Dispurse Cost" button
on the Landed Cost tab in Receipt Entry.
My code is working correctly (I am using progress syntax to do the
calculations) however the calculated landed cost that I am coming up
with do not get reported back to the screen. They hit the system and
everything seems to flow through appropriately but we would like for
the landed cost amount on each line and in total to show on the screen
so that a user could have the option to override if necessary.
If anyone could give me some suggestions on how to update the screen
with my newly calculated numbers for landed cost I would appreciate
it. At this point I am willing to take any suggestions or comments at
all on this. Thank you
