Creating a Resource Master in SAP B1 via SDK

Dear Esteemed Readers,

Today, we embark on a journey through the intricate process of creating a Resource Master within SAP Business One using the Software Development Kit (SDK). Resource Masters form the backbone of efficient management within the SAP B1 ecosystem, enabling seamless tracking and utilization of vital organizational assets.

  Public Function AddResourceMaster(ByVal strVisCode As String, ByVal strResName As String, ByVal strResWarehouse As String) As Boolean
    Dim oCompanyService As SAPbobsCOM.CompanyService = Nothing
    Dim oResourceService As SAPbobsCOM.ResourcesService = Nothing
    Dim oResource As SAPbobsCOM.Resource = Nothing
    Dim oResWhs As SAPbobsCOM.ResourceWarehouse = Nothing
    Dim oResParamters As SAPbobsCOM.ResourceParams = Nothing

    Try
        oCompanyService = oApplication.SAPCompany.GetCompanyService
        oResourceService = oCompanyService.GetBusinessService(SAPbobsCOM.ServiceTypes.ResourcesService)
        oResource = oCompanyService.GetDataInterface(SAPbobsCOM.ResourcesServiceDataInterfaces.rsdiResource)
        
        ' Assign values to Resource properties
        oResource.VisCode = strVisCode
        oResource.Name = strResName
        
        ' Add Resource Warehouse
        oResWhs = oResource.Warehouses.Add
        oResWhs.Warehouse = strResWarehouse
        
        ' Add Resource using Service
        oResParamters = oResourceService.Add(oResource)
        
        Return True
    Catch ex As Exception
        ' Log or handle the exception accordingly
        ' Logging or displaying error messages for debugging purposes
        Return False
    Finally
        ' Properly dispose of resources
        If oResParamters IsNot Nothing Then oResParamters = Nothing
        If oResWhs IsNot Nothing Then oResWhs = Nothing
        If oResource IsNot Nothing Then oResource = Nothing
        If oResourceService IsNot Nothing Then oResourceService = Nothing
        If oCompanyService IsNot Nothing Then oCompanyService = Nothing
    End Try
End Function

Add Linked Button through SAP Business One SDK- VB.NET

Add Linked Button through SAP Business One SDK- VB.NET

Introduction:

SAP Business One is a powerful enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution that allows businesses to streamline their operations. One of the key strengths of SAP Business One is its extensibility, which enables developers to enhance the user interface (UI) and functionality according to specific business needs.In this blog post, we will focus on a common customization - adding a linked button to a form using the SAP Business One SDK in VB.NET. Linked buttons are a convenient way to integrate custom functionality into the SAP Business One UI, providing users with quick access to specific actions.

Public Sub AddLinkedButton(ByVal objForm As SAPbouiCOM.Form, ByVal ItemUID As String, ByVal SourceID As String, ByVal iLeft As Integer, ByVal iWidth As Integer, ByVal iHeight As Integer, ByVal LinkTo As String, ByVal strLinkedObjectType As String, ByVal strLinkedObject As String)
        Dim oItem As SAPbouiCOM.Item = Nothing
        Try
            If objForm IsNot Nothing Then
                oItem = objForm.Items.Add(ItemUID, SAPbouiCOM.BoFormItemTypes.it_LINKED_BUTTON)
                oItem.Top = objForm.Items.Item(SourceID).Top
                oItem.Left = iLeft + (objForm.Items.Item(SourceID).Left + objForm.Items.Item(SourceID).Width)
                oItem.Width = iWidth
                oItem.Height = iHeight
                oItem.LinkTo = LinkTo
                Dim btn As SAPbouiCOM.LinkedButton = objForm.Items.Item(ItemUID).Specific '' To Assign New Button
                btn.LinkedObjectType = strLinkedObjectType
                btn.LinkedObject = strLinkedObject
            End If
        Catch ex As Exception
        Finally
            If objForm IsNot Nothing Then
                objForm = Nothing
            End If
            If oItem IsNot Nothing Then
                oItem = Nothing
            End If
        End Try
    End Sub

To summarize, adding a linked button in SAP Business One SDK in VB.NET requires specific steps for successful implementation. This enhances functionality and customization in the platform.
