Skip OnValidate logic on standard field without OnBeforeValidate event and IsHandled variable

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by KrisTW 25

Hi all,

What is the best approach to skip/unable standard code in OnValidate field. ?

In my case "VAT Registration No." on TAB36 - OoValidate code overwrite "VAT Registration No." on Customer record, this is not acceptable for our client.

I have the same question (0)

    Hi Kris,

    May I ask why you don't want to use the IsHandled approach?

    There is no other way to change this behavior, in fact it was added exactly for what you ask.

    In case that OnValidate trigger doesn't contain the IsHandled variable, you can always open an issue on Github asking for it here, like this one github.com/.../1237

    OnValidate trigger doesn't contain the IsHandled  - that why

    It's hot issue and we use BC15 onperm I can't wait for MS :)

    but I found other solution , in OnBeforeValidate I assign

      xRec."VAT Registration No." := Rec."VAT Registration No.";

    and in standard validation this line of code  

    if "VAT Registration No." = Customer."VAT Registration No." then

      exit;

    let me skip the validation

    Hi,

    I am glad to know that you have found a solution modifying the xRec although it is not the most optimal, in the most recent versions the OnValidate trigger of the "VAT Registration No." field does contain the IsHandled approach.

    If the next time you specify beforehand the version of BC that you use, surely there are many more people who can help you faster.
