How does showAllrecords work?

Posted on by Vgubba 120

Hi All, 

I want to know how Show all records in record info( when we right click on form) work? how is data queried and fetched in AX?

I had a requirement to hide pricing related data for a particular role. I customized the role to override permissions and hid all the fields in multiple purch related tables. We still have an issue, that when the uder right clicks on the form and click on show all fields, A display method which calculates the not invoiced amount (purchtable.amountOrderedNotInvoicedMST()) is still shown.

I want to restrict that information for that role, as well as want to know how this show all fields work technically.

Any help is highly appreciated. 

Thank you.

    Hi Vkunchakuri,

    First of all, function is called "Show all fields" not show all records. Secondly, it adds all field groups to this form, and "Work item" field group has this display method, so that is how it gets populated. You cannot restrict this display method by security.

    You can either remove access to "Record info" form from this users or do a modification to check if users have access to fields used in the display method and return 0 if they do not. It could be done using Global::hasFieldAccess method.

    Thank you ievgen Miroshnikov. I will try your suggestion.

    Is it then safe to say that there is no other way to restrict display methods using XDS or by overriding permissions on security role?

    XDS works with a record not individual fields, override security permissions may work but I have not tried. Anyway I don't think that you should give access to that functionally to users, why do they need it at all?
