Use database as JOBID when using script upload to Accutrace

If you would like to use the database name as the JOBID for a file that you're uploading automatically in a script, you can use the following command.

Open your script, and create a new event. Make it a Command event.

Create a new command.

Name it JOBID in script or something that would make sense.

In the command statement syntax below copy/paste the following command.

com_PresortFolder=ADDBS(JUSTPATH(DBF("_azqualification")))
com_jobid=justfname(forceext(dbf(),""))
ocomEditIni=CREATEOBJECT('editini')
ocomEditIni.IniPath=com_PresortFolder+"Presort.ini"
ocomEditIni.AddIfNotFound=.T.
ocomEditIni.Sectionhdr='[MAILDAT]'
ocomEditIni.Searchfor='JOBID='
ocomEditIni.Replacewith=TRANSFORM(com_jobid)
ocomEditIni.UpdateIni()

Make sure to place this command after the presort event and before the Upload to AccuTRACE event in the script.

If you're not presorting, use this instead:

ocomEditIni=CREATEOBJECT('editini')
ocomEditIni.IniPath=FORCEEXT(DBF(),"ini")
ocomEditIni.AddIfNotFound=.T.
ocomEditIni.Sectionhdr='[ACCUTRACE]'
ocomEditIni.Searchfor='JOBID='
ocomEditIni.Replacewith=TRANSFORM(com_jobid)
ocomEditIni.UpdateIni()

ocomEditIni.Sectionhdr='[ACCUTRACE]'
ocomEditIni.Searchfor='NOTICEEMAIL='
ocomEditIni.Replacewith="youremail@email.com"
ocomEditIni.UpdateIni()
