BaseEnums - Restrictions

Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

Hi Community,

I have two BaseEnums:

-VehicleType
-VehicleCategorie

VehicleType:

1 Car

2 Truck

VehicleCategorie

1 small

2 midrange

3 compact

4 Truck Class 1

5 Truck Class 2

6 Truck Class 3

I have a priceTable with Fields : CarTyp, CarCategorie, Model & Price.

Now I want to make a restrictions. Like if I choose for CarType: "Car" only the first 3 values(Options) from CarCategorie shall be shown to me.

And for "truck" the last three shall be shown.

Any Suggestions where I could start ?

I thought maybe starting in the validateField() method. Based on the selection I make for my CarType I could say in validateField() that only Categories are allowed which match to that CarType.

Or could I use Conditional Table Relations ?

Comboboxcontrolid variable should have a proper value, because you getting grid control that does not have enum type method.

I am interested in your second recommnedation, because it is something I think I can learn from and it is new to me.

I wrote almost the same Code but unfortunately everytime I run, the Debugger Pops up.

Hi Khashayar,

validateField is a good start, there you can check that VehicleCategorie type and return true if it is valid or return false and show warning message to user if it is not. However, if you want to hide values of VehicleCategorie from selection base on VehicleType you can use sysFormEnumComboBox, please refer for details https://community.dynamics.com/ax/b/axdevhelp/archive/2012/08/27/hide-enum-values-in-form-control
