Using public functions from the FSLIBIDMHELPER script library

The FSLIBIDMHELPER script library has generic and sample scripting functions.

Do not make a change to the FSLIBIDMHELPER script library. You can change a function by copying another script library and use the function with that script library instead.

Pre-requisites

To use the FSLIBIDMHELPER script library, you must:

Understand IDM functionality.
Understand the IDM Xquery syntax. You can use the IDM search in OS to understand the syntax.
Access IDM API documentation from the OS installation. Open https://yourOSServerName:9543/ca/index.html to access the IDM API documentation.
Understand and read documentation on the FSLIBIDMHELPER script library.
Understand the IDM .Net library. Open the IDM API documentation to learn about the .NET library. When you import a script to .NET in IDM, the script must include the code Imports DocICP = Infor.DocumentManagement.ICP.

This example shows how to use a public function from the FSLIBLIDMHELPER script library:

   Imports DocICP = Infor.DocumentManagement.ICP

       Dim IDMCHK As FSLIBIDMHELPER = New FSLIBIDMHELPER(Me)
       Dim IDMdocCode As String = "PRODUCT_DATA_SHEET_NA"
       Dim chk As String = IDMCHK.GetDocCount(IDMdocCode, _OBJECTSYMBOL, _OBJECTKEY)
        If chk = 0 Then
            Messagelist("IDMCHK = Fail", chk)
        Else
            Messagelist("IDMCHK = Pass", chk)
        End If

        If chk > 0 Then
            Messagelist("Vendor has completed task - update security access from WRITE to READ on specific Fields and Parameters")
            Messagelist("Vendor can add COMMENT to object Doc Code")
            Dim rc1 As Integer = SetSecurityACL("SPECIFICATION", _OBJECTKEY, "@", "USER", "VENDOR", -1)
            Dim rc As Integer = SetSecurityACL("SPECIFICATION", _OBJECTKEY, "@", "USER", "VENDOR", 3)

            Return 111
        Else

            MessageList("There are no technical data sheet documents. Please attach and save your work.")

            Return 1
        End If
