Since this was one of my older customizations, it was in VB and that translated to:

imports System.Reflection

...
...
...

Dim mi as System.Reflection.MethodInfo

'// Thanks to Jose Gomez for the Save code
mi = GetType(Epicor.Mfg.UI.App.SerialNumberAssignmentEntry.Transaction).GetMethod("Update", BindingFlags.NonPublic Or BindingFlags.Instance)

mi.Invoke(oTrans, new object() {})



This compiles and runs like a champ. Thanks Jose!

We have a button in Serial Number Asignment that prints serial number labels (just Shells out to an external program). This will print the labels but if the user forgets to save, they are never assigned. I'd like to force a save before the labels print. I've added the usual

oTrans.Update()

but I get this error:

Function Update() As Boolean' is not accessible in this context because it is 'Private'.

What handle can I use to execute the Update method on the main form? This should be simple but I'm just not thinking clearly today...

Thanks!!!

since the Update method its private you'll have to use Reflector to get at
it.
Include in your customization System.Reflection.

Then do something like this (note I am writing this out of memory so the
syntax may not be 100%)
MethodInfo mi =
typeof(Epicor.Mfg.UI.App.YourForm.Transaction).GetMethod("Update"),
BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance);
mi.Invoke(oTrans, new object[] { });
