Hi there,

I was wondering if anyone can assist please.

I was looking to add an additional option to the Vendor Category within the Vendor card - How do I do this?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Stephen

Vendor - Vendor Category - Additional Option

Hi, I have confirmed it in both the W1 and US versions. It seems that the standard does not have this field?
Is this a custom field? Or is it a field in another extension?

If it is in other extensions, you need to add the Dependencies attribute before it can be extended.

Here is a simple example:

Also note that if it is a third-party extension, it can prevent you from accessing it.

More details:

Richer access control for extension source in cloud environments (‘showMyCode’ -> ‘resourceExposurePolicy’)

Hope this helps as well.

Thanks.

Hi Stephen,

you would have to extend the enum table (if allow to extend) that the category field is pulling from.

this is normally done by a develpers who can do this. I had the same problem and we got our developers to do this, quite a quick job.

hope this helps.
