SetHeader

Syntax

SetHeader(&hdr_)

Description

When creating a new application transaction, some applications do not fully populate the key fields until it is saved. For instance, eProcurement uses a generated id number for requisitions, but does not populate the id field until a new transaction is saved. Since applications need to initialize the LaunchManager object in the component post-build event code, this poses a challenge. In such situations, application developers can safely call this method to reset the header record before submitting a new transaction for approvals. It is always safe to call this method as long as the header record being passed in is valid. However when this method will re-instantiate the approval process, which eliminates any performance improvements achieved by caching previewed instances.

Parameters

Parameter	Description
&hdr_	The header record defined for the approval processes in the Transaction Approval Levels in the Transaction Registry, as record.

Returns

None.

Example

&reqRecord = CreateRecord(Record.PV_REQHDR_AW_VW);
GetLevel0()(1).GetRecord(Record.REQ_HDR).CopyFieldsTo(&reqRecord);
&launchMgr.SetHeader(&reqRecord);
&launchMgr.DoSubmit();
