Posted on by devgirlX 92
Hello
 
I have a following requirement:
 
 
This field needs to be editable always.
 
As it is now, it is editable only if cust trans is open (like other fields from cust trans datasource as well):
 
What I tried is:
 
 
But this doesn't work.
 
Any ideas?
 
Thanks in advance

    Hi devgirlX,
     
    Have you used the debugger to find out if your coding is triggered or maybe overwritten with other logic?
    If you are testing in your development environment, ensure you did build the complete model, not only the project/solution and perform a full database sync.

    Hi,
     
    Your DataSource remains as CustTramns_DS.AllowEdit(false) because of base method (else case after if)
     
    You may want to to make that allowEdit(true) in your custom code.
     
    Look at the else case in the standard form, that is making the datasource non-editable.
     
     
     
    You must mention following line, after the call of base method (in your extension)
    custTrans_ds.allowEdit(true);
