In which method to hide form field

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by _MGP 506

I'm looking for the most logical method to hide a form field after the form datasource is available.

For info, the form is SalesTable.

I want to hide the field when opening from ListPage or when navigating between Sales orders using the record navigation at the bottom of forms.

For example, then I can check data value and hide the field.

if(SalesTable.ProjId)
{
    formCtrlName.isVisible(false);
}

I have the same question (0)

    The correct place to trigger your logic is the active method of the SalesTable data source.

    However I suggest you to place your code in a separate method, and just call that method from the active method.

    Thank you Nikolaos. I did what you said and it is working.

    Also, just to note that I needed to add the else as follows because when navigating through Sales orders using the record navigation otherwise it will always stay hidden after a Project Sales Order is displayed (unless form is closed and re-opened).

    if(SalesTable.ProjId)
{
    formCtrlName.visible(false);
}
else
{
    formCtrlName.visible(true);
}
