Hi

  I the below line it gives above error. SCMLine is Sale Credit Header . It should be written like below . Its value in Database is shown as 1.

SCMLine.SETRANGE(SCMLine."Sales Return Type":: Sales Cancellation);

Thanks

    Hi,

    Yes you could also do:

     SCMLine.SETRANGE("Sales Return Type",1);

    However it is a bit less readable.

    Hi

     But can't we write Sales Return Type = 1

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Due to the space, there needs to be quotes around Sales Cancellation. "Sales Return Type"::"Sales Cancellation".

    Hi

     I have written this but it says  ')' should come here

    SCMLine.SETRANGE("Sales Return Type",SCMLine."Sales Return Type"::Sales Cancellation);

    Thanks

    Hi,

    It is a bit misleading to call the header a line variable name, however:

    SCMLine.SETRANGE("Sales Return Type",SCMLine."Sales Return Type":: Sales Cancellation);
