| # To create dashboards To create a dashboard you must: create the dashboard session and its form using the Sessions (ttadv2500m000) session. The dashboard session uses the main table of the entity that you want to select. Create a UI script for the dashboard session: The UI script controls most of the actions, including the selection, calculation and starting the details sessions. Create details sessions that allow the dashboard user to drill-down into the details of the overview presented in the dashboard. 重要 The sections below describe the sessions that you must use to create a dashboard. However, they do not describe all details of these sessions. For detailed session information, refer to the Infor Web Help. To create the session The dashboard session uses the main table of the entity that you want to select. The session is similar to an overview session. However, an overview session usually has a synchronized dialog to its details session. A dashboard session controls the synchronization to the various details sessions within the program script. 例 - Items Dashboard You need to create a dashboard session that uses the Items as the main entity. When you select an item, the dashboard will show the item, description, purchase price, stock on-hand and stock on-order for the item. Next to the purchase price, it will calculate the last purchase price. Next to the stock on-hand, it will display the inventory value (valued at purchase price). Next to the stock on-order, it will show the latest order date for orders that have not been delivered. A document button is available to view purchase orders for the item. You create an items dashboard session, using the Items table. The session is a display session type. This table shows the session properties:

To create the form This diagram shows a dashboard session: Dashboard session - form sections The form of a dashboard session consists of these sections: Details This section contains fields that are declared as variables, as opposed to table fields. While not required, these fields are typically defined in one or more groups. Links This section contains check boxes and buttons. The check boxes are variables that are defined in the session's program script. The check boxes do not have labels. The buttons are field level form commands, that are linked to the check boxes. The form commands use labels to provide the names for the buttons. Records The records are displayed in a grid. The grid is typically defined in another group. The grid contains table fields and the number of fields in the grid may be limited to a few key fields. A new group is not required, but helps you in separating the Links and Records sections. The form contains group boxes and field buttons. Therefore Rich View should be selected in the Session Properties of the form. 例 - Items Dashboard You create an items dashboard session using the Items table. The session is a display session type. Dashboard Form Editor In the ダイナミックフォームエディタ you must specify the session properties, the field properties and form commands. Specify these properties in the Session Properties dialog box:
Field | Value
Overview Session | Yes
Rich View | Yes
Remaining fields | No
Fields in the view area are variables that are defined in the session's program script, such as "sel.item". See the sample script in this section for more examples. Specify the following properties in the Position tab in the Field Properties dialog box:
Field | Value
Overview Session | Yes
View Field | Yes
Remaining fields | No / empty
The field properties for the Documents check box fields do not have a label code. The button next to each document check box is defined as a field level form command, which is linked to the corresponding check box field. The form command executes a function that will be defined in the program script. This table shows the properties of the field level form command that is linked to the "sel.orders" check box:
ID | 1
Activate a | Function
Session/Function/Business Method | exec.orders
Parent (Menu) | 0
Sort Sequence | 0
Command Type | Field
Group/Field Number | 90
Label | oes022.orli
Long description | Order Lines
Short Description | Order Lines
Shortcut Key | [Empty]
Separator | No
You can use the Show Overview Session command in the ダイナミックフォームエディタ to start the session. Show Overview Session Result To create the program script The program script controls most of the actions, including the selection, calculation and starting the details sessions. The actions that occur when the user selects a row are programmed in a mark.occur event. This event will gather the information for the selected value, and enable the form commands. It will also re-synchronize the details sessions. The detail sessions are started via a form command. Since the script will control the synchronization, it is preferred that the form commands call a function in the script. This function is defined as an extern function. 例 - Items Dashboard The Items dashboard needs to: Declare the form variables. Declare the tables used in the calculation of the form variables (unless a library calculates these values) Contain actions for the mark.occur event Contain actions for the functions called by the field level form commands Start a synchronized child process in the functions called by the field level form command. Uses the start.synchronized.child function. See the following code for an example:

When you compile this script, the session can compute values. Item Dashboard with Computed Values Select another item to show the values for that item. Item Dashboard To create the details sessions The details sessions allow the dashboard user to drill-down into the details of the overview presented in the dashboard. A details session will typically import the values from the dashboard session, and start or limit the display to those records. The program scripts of the details sessions can be modified to import these values and in some cases, extend the query so that only the desired rows are displayed. 例 - Items Dashboard You have created an Items dashboard session using the Items table. The order lines for the Item must be shown in a details session. The Purchase Order Lines (cxoes0523m100) session uses the Purchase Order Lines (cxoes023) table to show purchase order lines. You edit the form of this session to insure that the Item field is a view field. Purchases by Item Form The program script extends the query in the before.program section. The query extension is required because there is not an index on the field that contains the filter.

When this session is started from the dashboard, the session will show only the orders for the item that is selected in the dashboard. Dashboard with Detail Session When you select another item, and click the Documents button, the details session will synchronize. The item from the dashboard session will be sent to the details session, and the purchase orders for that item will display.
