Jiwa

Hi,

I have created a plugin in jiwa previously, now i'm creating a new plugin in jiwa.
In this Plugin i want to export the fields and their data of previous plugin. Can you please let me know how can i get the fields and their values of a plugin using plugin RecID?

Also I want to insert data in those fields as well, can you please let me know this as well?

Thank you in advance

On the "Custom Fields" tab of the original plugin, use the "Move" button next to the custom field definition to move the fields and their values to the new plugin.

Hi Scott,

i'm working on new plugin to get data from previously created plugin custom fields, can you please tell me the code which i can add in my developing plugin to get data of custom fields of previously created plugin?

I try to get fields of Jiwa Business Logic classes
JiwaApplication.CustomFields.CustomFieldValue

and

JiwaApplication.Plugin.Plugin

but wasn't get any success as yet, I want to get custom fields of a plugin and data of that fields by using code in newly created plugin?
Can you please help me with it.

Thank you in advance

Try this:

C#:

Code: Select all

var customFieldValue = debtor.CustomFieldValues.get_ItemFromSettingName("CustomFieldName", "PluginName");
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(customFieldValue.Contents); // examine value
customFieldValue.Contents = "x"; // set value


VB:

Code: Select all

Dim customFieldValue as JiwaFinancials.Jiwa.JiwaApplication.CustomFields.CustomFieldValue = debtor.CustomFieldValues.ItemFromSettingName("CustomFieldName", "PluginName")
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(customFieldValue.Contents) ' examine value
customFieldValue.Contents = "x" ' set value


replace debtor with the object instance you're using.

The ItemFromSettingName method is overloaded - so you can either provide both the CustomFieldName and PluginName as shown above, or just the CustomFieldName if you're sure no other plugin will have a custom field of the same name.

Hi!

Thanks for your reply.

Code: Select all

var customFieldValue = jobtask.CustomFieldValues.get_ItemFromSettingName("Debtor No", "Debtor Plugin");

Do you have a plugin named "Debtor Plugin" and does that plugin have a custom field with a name of "Debtor No" ?

yes, I have created that plugin before.

I created a plugin named "Debtor Plugin1" and added a custom field "Debtor No" - then I added some code to write to the debug output the value of the custom field whenever a debtor is read - and I didn't get the error, and I saw the output in my debug console.

I've attached the plugin (for version 7.00.175.00) - try that out and see if you have any problems with that.
