How to add new parameter in Generate AP Invoice for Expense?

Kinetic ERP

Hi All,

I’m trying to add Employee Expense Number as new parameter in Generate AP Invoice for Expense and I found that system is running the Erp.Proc.GetEmpExpSvc.SubmitToAgent but how should I create the BPM Logic?

Hello, I wrote a little how-to on adding a new parameter to any dataset, this one is for a report, but it should be helpful to guide you: SSRS - Feeding report style number/description into RDL - #8 by GabeFranco

My example is using the Job Traveler report, Erp.Rpt.JobTravSvc/SubmitToAgent, but the logic is generic and applies to any report.

Here, I am pulling an existing variable “ReportStyleNum” and using it in my Pre BPM.

You will need to customize the Kinetic UI form to add a textbox to send an extra field into the pre - Maybe you can bind the textbox directly to callContextBpmData.Character01 - or you might have to pass it in another way and then in the pre, set it into Character01.

Either way, once you get the value into callContextBpmData, you can then use it.

I’m not sure how you would want to use this new variable in the process.

Hi @GabeFranco ,

Ya, I’m also thinking how this logic can be apply in the process to do data validation because I’m using this logic in my custom report also. By the way, Thank you for your idea.

Any ideas on this issue? I did created a function to insert new row in Ap Invoice and bypass the business logic, but it does not update the AP invoice number and line number in EmpExpense table.
