(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 358

I created two tables Called Catergory and Sector that has two table fields each Code and Description. On the customer table, I extended to have Code of Category and Code of Sector. I then added those two fields on the Customer Card page and when I insert the data I get the following error.

customer already has a contact business relation with contact

Here is my code;

table 50131 "mySectortable"
{
    DataClassification = ToBeClassified;
    LookupPageId = "Customer Sector";

    fields
    {
        field(50000; "Code"; Code[20])
        {
            DataClassification = ToBeClassified;

        }
        field(50001; "Description"; Text[50])
        {
            DataClassification = ToBeClassified;
        }
    }

    keys
    {
        key(PK; Code)
        {
            Clustered = true;
        }
    }

    var
        myInt: Integer;

    trigger OnInsert()
    begin

    end;

    trigger OnModify()
    begin

    end;

    trigger OnDelete()
    begin

    end;

    trigger OnRename()
    begin

    end;

}

table 50133 "myCategorytable"
{
    DataClassification = ToBeClassified;
    LookupPageID = "Customer Category";

    fields
    {
        field(50000; "Code"; Code[20])
        {
            DataClassification = ToBeClassified;

        }
        field(50001; "Description"; Text[50])
        {
            DataClassification = ToBeClassified;
        }
    }

    keys
    {
        key(PK; Code)
        {
            Clustered = true;
        }
    }

    Hi Mesam,

    If I'm not wrong you are using Customer.Insert but the record is already inserted by default.

    You need to used Customer.Modify.

    This will update your customer record with the relevant data.

    Secondly when you are using Table relation, after you have selected the field with appropriate table valued from the drop down you don't need to add any special code to deal with insert or update.

    Automatically it gets selected on the record itself.
