Cash Receipt Journal - set value of an enum for the Document Type

Posted on by

When a cash receipt page is opened, I want to default the Document Type to "Payment" and am trying to do it on a trigger OnNewRecord, but I am not sure how to set the value for an enum data type. Anyone do this and know what I need?

 trigger OnNewRecord(BelowxRec: Boolean)
    begin
        Rec.Validate("Document Type");
    end;

    Hi,

    You can try below

    pageextension 88000 "CCS Cash" extends "Cash Receipt Journal"

    {

       trigger OnNewRecord(BelowxRec: Boolean)

       var

           docType: Enum "Gen. Journal Document Type";

       begin

           rec."Document Type" := docType::Payment;

       end;

    }

    You do it the same way as you do with an option field:

    Enum : = Enum :: TheValue;

    Rec."Document Type" := Rec."Document Type" :: Payment;

    Here is a great article of enums in AL:
