Virtual field in "Vendor invoice journal" Excel template

(3) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 26
Hi, 
 
I am trying to resolve an issue with populating of virtual field in data entity used for "opening in excel".
 
I have created an extension for VendInvoiceJournalLineEntity with new virtual field MyField. It is populated by the extension of postLoad() method.
 
    public void postLoad()
    {
        next postLoad();
 
        this.MyField = "X";
    }
 
When I open the invoice journal in excel and modify the design (by adding the field), then it works perfectly in development environment. Excel sheet shows "X" in MyField column. After I deploy the customization in sandbox it doesn't work anymore. The column is empty in Excel.
 
To verify that the postLod is activated in the sandbox, I exported the journal transactions using a Data management project with the entity VendInvoiceJournalLineEntity. My virtual field is correctly populated in staging table as well as in the target file.
 
Any thoughts?
 
Thank you.
Z.

    In addition to the previous statement, I discovered something strange that may be useful to know. When entering postLoad in DEV, Dynamics switches to a company identical to the one from which the journal originates. When entering postLoad in UAT, DAT company is active.
