OnAction (Action) trigger

Version: Available or changed with runtime version 1.0.

Runs when a user selects an action on a page.

Syntax

trigger OnAction()
begin
    ...
end;

Remarks

This is called after the action properties, such as the RunObject Property, are invoked.

You typically use the RunObject Property to run objects such as pages, reports, codeunits, and queries from an action. You can use the OnAction trigger when you require more processing than the RunObject Property can support, such as filtering data before a page is displayed or writing to the database.

Note

The OnAction trigger is not used on Role Center pages. If you add AL code to the trigger, the Role Center page will compile, but the AL code will be ignored at runtime.
