If you have a different question, make a new post.

Anyway…

CDec(in_transactionItem.SpecificContent(“Cashin”).ToString)

For Queue Items (transactions) the data is in SpecificContent (which is a dictionary of string, object). And you have to output it as a string to pass it to CDec.

I assume you still don’t have the .ToString on them

CDec(in_transactionItem.SpecificContent(“Cashin”).ToString)

in_transactionItem.SpecificContent(“Cashin”) is an OBJECT. You can’t assign an Object to a decimal/double variable. You have to convert the Object with .ToString inside the CDec (or CDbl) conversion.

Mouse over the (!) and show us what the error is.

Hi @Neha_Singh1

If you are using in_Transactionitem as Datarow use index instead of column name and try once

Did you ever find a solution for this issue? I’m having the exact same problem and have tried the potential solution below, but simply adding the .ToString does not make a difference.

@postwick I’ve tried your solution. Nothing. The error I keep getting is:
Can not assign 'CDec(in_TransactionItem(“CashIn”)) to ‘CashIn’

Studio keeps telling me I do not need Specific Content, and when I simply add .ToString to the CDec method I get the same error message. My project looks exactly like the example.

What’s the type of the variable CDec, guys?

CDec isn’t a variable. It’s a function that converts into decimal. It’s C(onvert)Dec(imal)

Again, please copy the entire error message and post it here.

You do need SpecificContent. Write the following with Log Message and tell us what you get:

“[” + in_TransactionItem.SpecificContent(“CashIn”).ToString + “]”

(don’t copy paste, the double quotes won’t be correct because of the font used on this web page)

Hi @Neha_Singh1,

I was looking the first screenshot you shared and I noticed that your in_TransactionItem is null. That was the reason you got that exception (Multiple Assign: Can not assign ‘CDec(in_TransactionItem(“CashIn”))’ to ‘CashIn’)

So, the problem is one step before (GetTransactionData). It must look something like this:

If you want, share your project. Then, I can take a look and identify what is causing the error.

Note: I understood that you are doing the course Build a ReFramework Project with Tabular Data, so you will not use .SpecificContent as you are not dealing with Orchestrator queues.

Thanks!

Hi @uzair_khan and @Emilie_Tole1,

Please check my post above if you are doing the course Build a ReFramework Project with Tabular Data (here you should not use .SpecificContent).

If you are doing the course Build a ReFramework Project with Orchestrator Queues, do not consider my post above and let me know (for this one you should use .SpecificContent).

Feel free to share your project. Then, I can take a look and identify what is causing the error.

Thanks!
