I cant populate an field I created

I created a field on the Auto charges page by extending MarkupAutoLine table and the MarkupAutoSetup form. I followed the instructions on this link: https://ax.help.dynamics.com/en/wiki/customize-model-elements-using-extensions/

After I did a full DB sync I can see field on the page that I created, but I cant enter a value in that field and save an Auto Charge. Everytime I click save, it moves the cursor back into the field I created. Why cant I add to this field? Is there something else that I should do?

    What exact properties did you provide for this field? Is some validation (coding) preventing you from saving the record?

    Dear Andre,

    In the link posted above, I couldn't follow the steps in the section that is labeled "Extend the FMVehical form" exactly as shown in the link. The "Attributes2" was not in the MarkupAutoSetup form (the form for the MarkupAutoLine). The link states that the path is  Design > Tab > TabPageDetails > TabHeader > DetailsDetails > Attributes2. My form had  Design > Tab but afterwards the remaining path was not there. I found something under the Design>Tab that had other fields shown on the auto charges page, so I decided to add my field there instead. The location where I added my field is MarkupAutoLine(Grid).

    The only other difference is that I added a string field, as opposed to the integer field added in the example. I also commented out the validatedWrite code that I added (which is a little different than the example).

    As a side note, I also added this field in the markupTrans table because that is where the auto charge information is stored. The field doesnt show up in my debugger however.

    Hi,

    The link is an example of a certain form. The markup form is different and can have other controls or control names. Make sure you build the solution without errors to have the changes effective.

    I believe that I did add the field to the correct place in the form because the field shows up on the page. I deleted my table extensions and started over. I have only added a field to the MarkupAutoLine its corresponding form markupAutoSetup. I did a DB sync by clicking Dynamics AX> Synchronize database... then running a full database sync. I'm still running into the same issue. This is my output to my build:

    Can you specify the exact details of the new field? Did you create a new extended data type or used an existing one? On the EDT, but also the table properties, check if the CountryRegionCodes property could have countries listed which is not the country of your legal entity. Also check the Visible property.
