Hi all,

There is a scenario where the user should be able to a charge item line after the PO has been released.

How do we do that ?

Thanks,

TK

    Hi

    I mean my first usual answer is reopen PO then add the charge and release. But I am sure you thought about that. 

    One possible method is to use Power Automation. Similar to the below hack by JAngle

    Hey,

    I checked the above link , I want to mainly bypass the testopenstatus function which is called when we validate the type on purchase line.

    TestStatusOpen function is called from many fields validation like Type, No. Location Code, Quantity etc.

    I am not sure what is your full requirement and why do you want to skip only while validating the Type field but you should be careful applying this change.

    There many other places under Type validation which require Status to be Open and we do not have events to skip them.

                   if Type <> xRec.Type then begin

                       case xRec.Type of

                           Type::Item:

                               if Quantity <> 0 then begin

                                   PurchHeader.TestField(Status, PurchHeader.Status::Open);

    That was my guess. Mohana provided one solution. The only reason I mentioned Power Automation I was hoping that with similar method you can bypass that. Like the link you have place that user can enter the data and renter back to PO without that process. Or create Microsoft Form for that and push the data back to BC. Otherwise, I am afraid this will be development as Mohana mentioned.

    Hi, as Mohana mentioned, this is a very basic control that is very difficult to bypass.

    Unless you create a new Release field yourself. Then add the controls you need.

    Hope this gives you some new hints.

    Thanks.
