Display method on form grid view

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by andrewhill4 25

Hi

I'm new to AX development and I am asking for some advice.

I have a form with a grid view and I can use a display method from one of the data source tables on it as a control on it.  My question is can this control be added/removed by the user when they customise the form like they would if they wanted to add a field from the datasource?

Thanks

    Hi Andrew,

    A display or edit method cannot be added using the personalization option. If the control is present on the form design, it is possible to hide them.

    Hi

    Thanks for clarifying.  Can i dynamically show/hide this control based on a condition?

    Or even maybe a checkbox somewhere on the form?

    Its a requirement for a particular company within our business and this form is used by ALL companies.  I could just add the control and then get the companies to each hide it if they dont want to see it but i would rather do something a bit more dynamic.

    Thanks
