"@ITEM" OBJECT CODE (ITEM TEMPLATE)
- Pedro Jose Sanchez Luling
Introduced in API Version 2.7.22
Object code format
parent_object.@ITEM{selector}.property
parent_object.ITEM{selector}.property
The selector is mandatory and refers to the ITEM TEMPLATE OBJECT reference (the numeric ID or ITEM_CODE assigned when designing the the FORM TEMPLATE OBJECT).
Note that the initial @ symbol is not necessary and there is no ambiguity with the "ITEM" OBJECT CODE since the parent object provides the context to know that we refer to an ITEM TEMPLATE OBJECT and not to a ITEM OBJECT.
| Possible parent objects | Example |
|---|---|
| @FORM | @FORM.@ITEM{item_id | item_code}.REF @FORM.ITEM{item_id | item_code}.REF |
| @TASK | @TASK.@ITEM{item_id | item_code}.REF @TASK.ITEM{item_id | item_code}.REF |
Returns information about an ITEM TEMPLATE OBJECT. This object code always requires a selector (cannot be used without a selector)
Context information
| Required context objects |
|---|
| FORM TEMPLATE or TASK TEMPLATE |
| PROGRAM |
The ITEM TEMPLATE is searched in the scope defined by the parent OBJECT.
