Record source of list in Developer Mode

Even if you are running on SQL server (instead of Progress) there is no 'SQL" to see for most of the views used in vantage apps.

They are compiled progress 4GL constructs (even on SQL server).

Time Phase is a good example of that... It's a pretty straightforward progress app (basically a report displayed on screen) and it entirely uses temporary table data that doesn't persist in any way that would allow you to poke in with odbc and do a SQL query.

If you read the Progress 4GL Handbook (available for free pdf download on Progress' site - and very useful to learn how to create more powerful BAQ calc fields), Time Phase becomes recognizable as almost a '4GL 101' example app.

For your problem, I would examine all the transfer order table (TFOrdHed, TFOrdDtl, TFOrdSug, TFShipHead, TFShipDtl, TFShipUPS) records accessible via odbc and compare your transfer orders appearing as still open to ones that were processed clean and cleared out of time phase.

You'll probably find some obvious difference that (hopefully) was a lapse in processing (that can be corrected via the suitable vantage apps) and not corrupted data.

If you enter Developer Mode and look at properties of a list or grid, you can see it shows a datasource drop down.
How can you see what the actual SQL is for that data source?
I'm getting strange things in Time Phase (like transfer orders showing up as demand even though they're long since shipped and closed) so I wanted to check.
Thank you,

Tony

I don't know if this is the same question but: In Supplier Tracker on the Invoice Tab, it takes 10-15 minutes to Retrieve All invoices for a supplier. I looked at the Retrieve button in Dev mode but it looks like it calls a DLL. What if I want to just Retrieve the last 6 months worth of invoices? I could set a filter rule, but I assume it would still take 10-15 minutes to pull all the invoices and then filter by that rule. Does anyone know how to speed up that Retrieve?
