EventSubscriber for new item creation

Posted on by 25

I am trying to detect when a new item is created in Business Central Cloud v21.

I looked at OnAfterOnInsert in the item table but that triggers when the new item card is originally shown and given a generic ITEM*** number.

What I am looking for is the trigger after that initial item card is completed.

    If I understand correctly, you want to detect when the user completes filling in the item information. There is no trigger that detects this, however you could use the OnClosePage trigger on the Item card as a workaround.  Note that this trigger only works if users close the page using the back arrow, and not if they navigate to the previous or next item cards.

    Since the trigger runs every time a user closes the page, you can also create a new Boolean field like IsInformationCompleted on the Item table that toggles to true the first time the OnClosePage trigger runs to detect if this is the first time the item is created.

    Hope this helps!
