I’ve got a counter lobby element that I want to launch tbwOverviewCustomerAgreement from.

The screen launches fine but it’s got a company filter on it and this is not passed to the screen from the lobby element.  I can’t figure out how to pass the COMPANY from the data source.

Anyone got any ideas?

If I understood your question correctly, this may be a limitation.

 

The Customer Agreements overview screen already has a build-in company filter that would have been implemented on the client side, your Lobby Element cannot override this client side filter even if you have the “Use data source condition” enabled i.e. your data source has a company based lobby parameter $COMPANY$ in the where clause.  All you would have achieved is adding another company filter onto the Customer Agreements overview screen and if the company on the overview screen and your Lobby Element are different then no data will be returned.

Yeah, looks like I am doomed.

The Agreements in the lobby are spread across multiple companies so ‘apples and oranges’
