When creating Python code for Select, it is difficult to diagnose exactly what went wrong if there is any failure. The code below shows how to write messages to the System Event Viewer to help debug them. It is extremely important that it is removed from production code. If not, the increased CPU loading could greatly reduce the… Read More »

The context can come from at least five sources. Python Hooks in Automation Automation can host Python snippets in both the condition and activity areas. The way automation… Read More »
This topic is designed to provide examples of how to use C# libraries in IronPython executing in SoftPro Select. While the examples are valid for all C# uses, the objects used may be unfamiliar to many. TLDR In C#, properties typically hide class variables and allow the developer to validate user inputs. It also allows developers to allow… Read More »
Select allows you to write expressions that can show or hide documents and reports from a potentially large list of order reports. This is very handy since it allows you to filter out reports that are not relevant to the order (hides HUD-1 reports if the order is a CDF) or to the user that has the order… Read More »
This page is designed to provide examples of using .NET features in IronPython when creating Softpro Select content. The comprehensive example is here but I’ll provide examples in a form you are more familiar with. In all the code below, “order” is always the top level order object. For instance, in a custom order rule (COR), it is… Read More »
