project BLF > class BControlProperty > method ApiReadCustomizationV01

Description

Method to be used to retrieve a dataset (that can be dumped as XML), on system, role or user level.
This method returns a dataset which contains all customization data for the UI design, which can be loaded in another system by using "ApiLoadCustomization".


Parameters


icBusinessActivityinputcharacterName for the business activty in the format of "<BusComponent>.<BusActivity>" (<BusComponent> = technical short name like "BJournal", <BusActivity> = business activity name like "Create") for which data needs to be read. (for example "BJournal.Create")
If only the <BusComponent> is specified, then all information for that specific business component will be returned.
If the parameter is blank, then all activities are assumed, which can lead to a large dataset.
iiLevelinputintegerThe level for which the customization information needs to be read. This can be "user" (level=1),"role" (level=2) or "system" (level=3).
User level automatically includes role and system levels. Role level automatically includes system level.
iiLevelValueinputinteger
ovBControlPropertyoutputdataset
oiReturnStatusoutputintegerReturn status of the method.
