Hello,

I am trying to create a process flow that uses an AGS call to call PA52.1 and add a transaction. On PA52.1 you must inquire first before adding the transaction. Has anyone found a way to do this?

With Addins I populate a hidden field "EMP-BLOCK" with a value that by-passes the "Inquiry Complete - Add new values" message. Is is possible to do the same thing in the AGS call?

Yes, you can. See my blog posting:

Besides the XMIT-HREMP-BLOCK I was also missing other hidden fields that are referenced in Lawson article. The process flow is now working. Thanks for the info!

Ive added the xmit block described but I'm still getting the instruction to inquire. Is the block sufficient to get the transaction in or do all the fields in the article need to be supplied as well?

TommyT,

I currently use ProcessFlow to add PA52.1's in our system. Below is the AGS call that I use sucessfully. I have broken out each piece on a seperate line so that it is more legiable, but for the actual flow you will want to put them all together. For the variables (the ones with ), you will have to replace them with your own that are in your specific PF. There are also some that are hard coded like PCT-ACTION-CODE because for this particular PF they don't change. Hope this helps out...

_PDL=
&_TKN=PA52.1
&_EVT=ADD
&_RTN=DATA
&_LFN=ALL
&_TDS=IGNORE
&FC=Add
&PCT-COMPANY=
&PCT-EMPLOYEE=
&PCT-ACTION-CODE=ADJUSTMENT
&PCT-EFFECT-DATE=
&PCT-REASON1=ADJ-DSPINC
&PCT-UPDATE-BENEFIT=Y
&PCT-UPD-ABS-MGMT=N
&PCT-NEW-VALUE-1r0=
&IMMEDIATE-ACTION=N
&ORIG-COMPANY=
&ORIG-EMPLOYEE=
&ORIG-ACTION-CODE=ADJUSTMENT
&ORIG-EFFECT-DATE=
&_DELIM=%09
&_OUT=XML
&_EOT=TRUE

Thats great stuff! Thanks. However after I began running it my PA100's started bombing with a subscript out of range error. I'm wondering if I caused an invalid record in Persaction. Does anyone have any experiece with this error?

TommyT,
There is a bunch of information on "PA100 out of range" on the mylawson knowledge base. Two articles were specific adding records to PA52 without using the form...

Article ID:559379
Article ID:103118
Article ID: 86252

And a bunch more... Might be a good place to start.

David/James,

Where in the AGS call do you do this "Add the following hidden field value: XMIT-HREMP-BLOCK=1000000000"?
