Why Elements are not showing on Script (SAP Cloud Application Studio - 1705)

[Former Member]

Hi There.

I have created an extended element as bellow

import AP.Common.GDT;
import AP.CRM.Global;

[Extension] businessobject AP.CRM.Global:CustomerQuote {
        // You must activate this business object before you can access the extension fields
        // or messages in script files, forms, and screens.
   	    node Item {
		[Label("Long Description")] 
		element ZLongDesc : LANGUAGEINDEPENDENT_EXTENDED_Text;
   	         		
            node ItemEntitledProduct {
      	    } 
        } 
       		node ServiceReferenceObject {
   	    } 
}

All works find and Activates without any issue. However this element is not showing under the script file (not even the standard ones).

Under Item.node Event-AfterModify.absl no element is available to code

import ABSL;

this.ZLongDesc = "-- Winter is Coming --";
var b = this.ID;

what am I missing ?

I can Activate the Extension but not with the event.
😞

Than you all in advance.

Hi,

Please verify if "Mass" check box is unmarked while you generate script files.

Or else, Please use following code to access ID.

this.GetFirst().ID.content

Thanks Saurabah.

I can now access as you requested but:

Does this.GetFirst().ZLongDesc = "Thank you" will save the information into the element ?

If Yes, what else do I need to do for ZLongDesc be available at XML Data (OutputHistory) for Quotes ?

Thank you, I really appreciate your help.

Hi,

Yes, You text will be saved into the element but to store the value for each element then you have to use FOREACH to access/update all the elements of BO collection.

Coming to your question about making this field available into the XML, Please create a "Process Extension Scenario" and choose the specific one and then field shoul be available in the XML.

Thanks
