Set Default Value for a Custom field , based on Production Status value "Created"

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

In production control -> all production orders 

For any Production order status value is "Created" then my custom field value should be set as "Hold".  How can i do that.

    other simpler way could be to write your logic in insert() and update() method of the table

    problem with this if in standard logic doinsert() or doupdate() method is used for insert and update of record then there will be issue.

    But you can try.

    Please verify and update us with your findings

    Hi Nitesh,

    Please note that the modified field is not executed when fields are changed in methods. Is it is executed when a field is modified in a form or Web form. As the Production status is not handled on the form contol for production orders, your solution will not work in this case.

    you need to override the modifiedfield method of the table (prodTable)

    write the code to assign "Hold" value to your custom field if Production order status field is having value "Created"

    Please verify and let me know if you need more details

    Hi Divija,

    You need to do this with some x++ logic. You can have a look at the method 'update' on the table ProdTable. This calls logic in classes ProdStatusType and ProdTableType with some inherited classes per production status and type. You can see which method on the ProdStatusType_Created is always called and add the logic here. You can also create new methods for you new field.
