Hi,

I would like to save the value of the new customer field in AX and the store DB. In New Customer form, i added my new field "INNRetail"

In frmNewCustomer.Designer.cs, i added the code for binding the field:

this.textBoxINNRetail.DataBindings.Add(new System.Windows.Forms.Binding("Text", this.bindingSource, "INNRetail", true));

And in CustomerViewModel.cs, i added the class for extend the Customer.

Now, only i need to modify the SaveCustomer method for to save the INNRetail value. But, how i should to modify the method? Any example?

Thanks in advance,

Jorge García

As addition to customizing RTS stated here: [View:https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn126098.aspx:750:50]

When i get the result in the response i got it something like [null, true, "Success!"]. So just bare in mind that, you can get a typical AX "1" based array as result.

I found this in version AX2012 R3 CU10.

Hi Jorge,

The procedure of save includes 2 steps:

A) Save new field value in AX;
B) Save new field value in store database.

The place of your code in SaveCustomer method depends on how important your new field is:

If according to business rules you cannot save customer without this field, you need to save this field in AX at first (maybe with some temporary reference to customer) and after call standard 'save' method to create customer;

If customer can have new field empty (not critical), you can add your code to the end of 'SaveCustomer' method as shown on picture below.

How to customize RTS is described here (to save field value in AX): technet.microsoft.com/.../dn126098.aspx
blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/.../ax-for-retail-2012-customizing-the-transaction-service

To save field in store database, you should execute SQL command. For example:

var dbUtil = new DBUtil(ApplicationSettings.Database.LocalConnection); SqlUpdate sqlUpdate = new SqlUpdate("[ax].[CUSTTABLE]"); sqlUpdate.Set("INNRETAIL", "YOUR VALUE"); sqlUpdate.Where("ACCOUNTNUM", custAccountId); sqlUpdate.Where("DATAAREAID", ApplicationSettings.Database.DATAAREAID); this.dbUtil.Execute(sqlUpdate);

Oksana
