Through Infor XA Power-Link, I have access to a sales history view with things like quantity, price, item number, etc.
Using System i Navigator, I would like to be able to run a SQL script that produces a similar table, but customized to my liking.
However, I’m having trouble locating the tables involved in producing the Power-Link view. Is there a way to check the source using Power-Link so that I can get the table names?

Sure is! You need to use the SQL Monitor. Start the business object and go to Help then About Infor. The about screen will appear. Hit Control-D to start the SQL Monitor. You should see 3 columns: Start, Duration and SQL. Refresh the view and see the SQL Monitor will populate. Right-click and copy the entry that has ‘SQL SW executeQuery’ entry and paste into your favorite SQL editor. This will be the exact SQL select statement used by PowerLink. Modify to your needs.
Let me know if you need anything else.
