ARCHIVE Correspondence Method Intercept (Doc ID 517179.1)

Dear Siebel,

We are adding some pre-processing to the Correspondence generation.

To this end we have written some script on the Correspondence BusComp that needs to be executed when the user presses the 'Generate' button. After our code is executed the normal vanilla functionality on this button needs to kick in.

To this end we have put the following code on pre-invoke method:

function BusComp_PreInvokeMethod (MethodName)
{

    //TheApplication().RaiseErrorText(MethodName);

    if (MethodName=='OnGenerateHTML'){
        UpdAddr();
    }
    
    return (ContinueOperation);
}

The problem is that this doesn't trigger. The 'OnGenerateHTML' method is on the button in the CLA applet, but when the RaiseErrorText statement is active it shows '<?>' when the button is pressed not 'OnGenerateHTML'.

How can we achieve the requested functionality without creating a separate button?

thanks
