    You can try to use this even on the Job table:

    local procedure OnAfterOnInsert(var Job: Record Job; var xJob: Record Job)

       begin

       end;

    And set the status there.

    Hi, If you only want to run in Job Card, you can try the code below.

    But please note whether to use the Validate method, and the code of the Modify trigger needs to be run.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks.

    Rather than hard coding the status, it is better to add a field to the Job Setup table for "Default Job Status".  This way if you needed it to be something different in the future it wouldn't take a developer to change it.  As a non-developer, I can't stand hardcoded development.
