The Fast Way to Filter ER by Selected Records

#er

Dynamics 365 ERP - Development

Users may need to print reports based on filtered records, which can be achieved by selecting records directly from a form and clicking the report button.
Two methods to achieve this include leveraging the SysOperations framework or using a pattern based on user input parameters.
The article discusses creating an ER Model, Mapping, and Format to export desired values in ER for selected records.
User input parameters of type 'Notes' can hold a concatenation of keys, which are split into a list and mapped to the model.
The process involves creating an executable class in Visual Studio to loop through selected records and run the ER format parameterized in a Parameters form.
The code provided demonstrates how to handle cases when no records are found and how to append field values for each selected record.
After completing the ERs, compiling the code, and testing it, users should be able to print reports based on filtered records effectively.
The overall goal is to provide users with a streamlined process for exporting specific data in ER based on selected records from a form.
