IsCommitted - DataDictionary

Called to determine if the record is committed

Type: Function
Return Data Type: Boolean

Syntax

Function IsCommitted Returns Boolean

Call Example

Get IsCommitted to BooleanVariable

Description

Called to determine if the record is committed (see Commit Field_Option).

By default, IsCommitted is true if the record is saved. This can be augmented to change the definition of committed for a record. This can be augmented, but will often require no changes.

So consider the following DD:

Object OrderHea_DD is a OrderHea_DataDictionary
    Set DDO_Server to Customer_DD
    Set DDO_Server to SalesP_DD

    // allow null parent for sales-person (would normally be set in the dd class)
    Set ParentNullAllowed SalesP.File_Number to True

    // If committed order, don't allow customer to be changed (would normally be set in the dd class)
    Set ParentNoSwitchIfCommitted Customer.File_Number to True

    // Once committed, we don't want to be able to change ordered by (would normally be set in the dd class)
    Set Field_Option Field OrderHea.Ordered_By DD_COMMIT to True
End_Object

This would allows the salesperson to be null, disallow switching customers after the order is saved and disallows changing the value of Ordered-by once saved.

Sample

This sample shows you how to check if a record is committed, allowing you to do whatever you wish if it is.

Get IsCommitted to bCommitted
If (bCommitted) Begin
    // ... do something
End

Return Value

True if committed, False if not committed
