Business value

In 2022 release wave 1, we add new business events so that AL developers can react when a file has been generated from a report request page or if a file is ready for download.

Feature details

Three new business events will be added to codeunit 44 ReportManagement:

  • OnAfterDocumentReady
  • OnAfterDocumentDownload
  • OnCustomDocumentMerger

The OnAfterDocumentReady event is raised by the Business Central platform when a document is ready after it has been scheduled from a report request page.

The OnAfterDocumentDownload event is raised by the Business Central platform after a user has generated a report artifact from code or from a request page action.

The OnCustomDocumentMerger event is raised by the Business Central platform when the user has specified a custom report layout type which will be rendered into an artifact in application code.
