Posted on by JCHI 334

Hi,

I would like to disable a button on salesQuotationtable under some conditions.

but I have problem to find where to put my code 

button.enable(false);

I try to put it in active method of datasource.

I debug and make sure it did run the code. however maybe it changed status after I setup.

I open the form the button is still enabled.

so I would like to know is there a place to put the code under this scenario?

P.S : I read this article : event method sequence when a form is open

(https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa608211.aspx) 

it does even include active() method , why?

Thanks for all the answer

Quatrani

    Hi, Crispin:

    Thanks.

    The condition is:

    When the sales Quotation is generated, we write the quotation data to another system. then we have to prevent user to modify the quotation until feedback from another system.

    So what I actual want to do is prevent user to modify sales quotation

    I add code

    salesQuotationTable_DS.allowEdit(false),

    salesQuotationTable_DS.allowDelete(false)

    salesQuotationLine_DS.allowEdit(false),

    salesQuotationLine_DS.allowDelete(false)

    in active() of form datasource. which is fine.

    However I find confirm button in follow up tab of SalesQuotationTable(detailPage) is still enabled.

    So I want to disable it. when another system status of this quotation is send

    Do you have any suggestion? thanks

    Hi,

    Confirm button on form SalesQuotationTable is driven(enabled/disabled) in the method enableHeaderUpdateActions. Place a breakpoint in this method and check which condition is enabling the button.  

    This method is called in the following methods on form:

    \Forms\SalesQuotationTable\Data Sources\SalesQuotationTable\Methods\active

    \Forms\SalesQuotationTable\Data Sources\SalesQuotationTable\Methods\

    selectionChanged

    \Forms\SalesQuotationLine\Data Sources\SalesQuotationLine\Methods\active

    \Forms\SalesQuotationLine\Data Sources\SalesQuotationLine\Methods\

    selectionChanged

    Hello,

    Confirm button is enabled/disabled based on the value of method “mayConfirmationBeUpdated” in class “SalesQuotationTableType” so you better add your logic to “SalesQuotationTableType” method to enable/disable the button.  This way you don’t need separate code for Quotation form and list page.

    Best,

    Srini
