Modify Squeeze origin attachment
Overview
The OnAfterSetOriginFileNameOnBeforeModifyDocumentAttachment integration event allows third-party developers to customize document attachment records before they are modified during the SQUEEZE attachment processing workflow. An origin attachment is the relevant attachment that leads to the creation of a document (e.g. the vendor´s invoice).
Event Declaration
[IntegrationEvent(false, false)]
local procedure OnAfterSetOriginFileNameOnBeforeModifyDocumentAttachment(var DocumentAttachment: Record "DXP Document Attachment")
begin
end;
Event Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description | 
|---|---|---|
DocumentAttachment | 
Record "DXP Document Attachment" (var) | 
The document attachment record that is about to be modified. Passed by reference, allowing modifications. | 
When This Event is Triggered
This event is fired during the SaveAttachments procedure when:
- An attachment is being processed from SQUEEZE
 - The attachment is identified as an origin file (
IsOriginFile = true) - The system has set the origin file name and 
DXP Is Origin Fileflag - Just before the 
DocumentAttachment.Modify(true)call 
Use Cases
This integration event is useful for:
- Custom Field Population: Setting additional custom fields on the document attachment
 - File Name Transformation: Applying custom naming conventions or formatting
 - Metadata Enhancement: Adding custom metadata or tags to attachments
 - Validation Logic: Implementing custom validation before the record is saved
 - Integration Requirements: Preparing data for external system integrations
 
Implementation Example
Change The Filename Before Modify
[EventSubscriber(ObjectType::Codeunit, Codeunit::"DXP SQZ API Mgt.", 'OnAfterSetOriginFileNameOnBeforeModifyDocumentAttachment', '', false, false)]
local procedure OnAfterSetOriginFileNameOnBeforeModifyDocumentAttachment(var DocumentAttachment: Record "DXP Document Attachment")
var
    CoreDocument: Record "DXP Document";
    SQZDocumentHeader: Record "DXP SQZ Document Header";
    Vendor: Record Vendor;
    NewFileName: Text[250];
    VendorPrefix: Text[50];
begin
    // Get the core document using the document attachment's Document No.
    if not CoreDocument.Get(DocumentAttachment."Document No.") then
        exit;
    // Check if the core document has a linked SQUEEZE document
    if IsNullGuid(CoreDocument."Linked-to Record Id") then
        exit;
    // Get the SQZ Document Header using the SystemId from Linked-to Record Id
    if not GetSQZDocumentHeaderFromRecordId(CoreDocument."Linked-to Record Id", SQZDocumentHeader) then
        exit;
    // Check if Buy-from Vendor No. is populated
    if SQZDocumentHeader."Buy-from Vendor No." = '' then
        exit;
    // Get the vendor record
    if not Vendor.Get(SQZDocumentHeader."Buy-from Vendor No.") then
        exit;
    // Create vendor prefix from Search Name (fallback to Name if Search Name is empty)
    if Vendor."Search Name" <> '' then
        VendorPrefix := Vendor."Search Name"
    else
        VendorPrefix := Vendor.Name;
    // Clean the vendor prefix (remove invalid filename characters and limit length)
    VendorPrefix := CleanFilenameText(VendorPrefix, 30);
    // Check if vendor prefix already exists in filename to avoid duplicates
    if DocumentAttachment."File Name".StartsWith(VendorPrefix + '_') then
        exit;
    // Create new filename with vendor prefix
    NewFileName := VendorPrefix + '_' + DocumentAttachment."File Name";
    // Update the attachment filename
    DocumentAttachment."File Name" := NewFileName;
end;
local procedure GetSQZDocumentHeaderFromRecordId(LinkedRecordId: Guid; var SQZDocumentHeader: Record "DXP SQZ Document Header"): Boolean
var
    RecRef: RecordRef;
    SystemIdFieldRef: FieldRef;
begin
    // Method 1: Try to get the record directly if LinkedRecordId is actually a SystemId
    if SQZDocumentHeader.GetBySystemId(LinkedRecordId) then
        exit(true);
    // Method 2: If that fails, we need to find the record another way
    // This assumes the Linked-to Record Id might be stored differently
    SQZDocumentHeader.Reset();
    SQZDocumentHeader.SetRange(SystemId, LinkedRecordId);
    exit(SQZDocumentHeader.FindFirst());
end;
local procedure CleanFilenameText(InputText: Text; MaxLength: Integer): Text
var
    CleanText: Text;
begin
    // Remove invalid filename characters
    CleanText := DelChr(InputText, '=', '<>|"/\:*?');
    
    // Replace spaces with underscores for better filename compatibility
    CleanText := CleanText.Replace(' ', '_');
    
    // Limit length
    CleanText := CopyStr(CleanText, 1, MaxLength);
    
    exit(CleanText);
end;
Important Considerations
Data Integrity
- The 
DocumentAttachmentrecord is passed by reference, so any changes will be persisted - Consider field length limitations when modifying text fields
 
Performance
- Keep processing lightweight as this event is called for each origin file attachment
 - Consider caching frequently accessed data
 
Error Handling
- Implement proper error handling to prevent the attachment save process from failing
 - Use try-functions for risky operations
 
Related Events
OnAfterSaveAttachment: Triggered after each attachment is completely saved- Consider using this alternative event if you need to perform actions after the record is saved
 
Troubleshooting
If your event subscriber isn’t being triggered:
- Test with origin files specifically (non-origin files won’t trigger this event)
