Hint Details:

It is now possible to open the Customer, Contract or Unit Enquiry form from within an XML Jobrunner job. Alternatively, the same command can be used to open a Woodpecker form.

The command to do so is <OpenForm> which must be passed two attributes;

formid = this is the form to open (Case sensitive)
static = this should be set to either YES or NO and indicates if the 'formid' is for a compiled form (YES) or a WoodPecker form (NO)

Various Parameters can be passed ( as child <Writeln> statements ) to the command, which are detailed below.

(Version Note: CustomerDetails is available from 2.2.4.52 onwards. All others are available from 2.2.5.0 onwards)

CUSTOMER ENQUIRY FORM:

formid = CustomerDetails
static = YES

Parameter 1 = customerid

example:

<OpenForm formid="CustomerDetails" static="YES">
  <Writeln>{customerid}</Writeln>
</OpenForm>

CONTRACT ENQUIRY FORM:

formid = ContractDetails
static = YES

Parameter 1 = contractid
Parameter 2 = '1' if the default tab selected should be the 'Transaction' Tab. '0' or omitted if it should be the 'Units' tab.

example:

<OpenForm formid="ContractDetails" static="YES">
  <Writeln>{contractid}</Writeln>
  <Writeln>1</Writeln>
</OpenForm>

UNIT ENQUIRY FORM:

formid = UnitDetails
static = YES

Parameter 1 = unitid

example:

<OpenForm formid="UnitDetails" static="YES">
  <Writeln>{unitid}</Writeln>
</OpenForm>

CONTACT EVENT FORM:

If you want to open this form to create a new contact event then leave the first parameter empty and fill the other 3 as required (in this case a customerid MUST be provided).

If the first parameter is filled the others are ignored

formid = ContactEvent
static = YES

Parameter 1 = contacteventid
Parameter 2 = customerid
Parameter 3 = contractid
Parameter 4 = reservationid

example:

<OpenForm formid="ContactEvent" static="YES">
  <Writeln/>
  <Writeln>{customerid}</Writeln>
  <Writeln>{contractid}</Writeln>
</OpenForm>
