Hi guys,

I'm wondering, as a user (not developer) can we add Party type to the list of Vendors ?

I'm referring to this info in Vendor's detail :

I want to put it outside, in the grid of All vendors list -> Accounts payable > Vendors > All vendors,

however I cannot find the field in Insert columns.

I don't think it is one of this :

As I tried, none of them give me the Party type.

Thanks

Its a handled in code, you would need a developer to add it to the form as a display method:

Hi @Teevo,

there is no field to store the party type in the vendor table.
so i think we need to do some customization and add a display method in the grid.

Hi Teevo,

Unfortunately you have to customize this.

Hi,

You can do it through customization by creating a new Display method and use it on the list page, but keep in mind that will affect the performance of the list page.

Hi,
As everyone said, if there is no field you need in the insert column, you need to customize it to meet your needs. You can refer to the link below:

Sorry for late response, but my intention after add it into the grid is later user can filter it.

So, I think adding display method will not help in this case, doesn't it ?

You are right. A display method doesn't have capability to filter. Let's say if you need to get Person type vendors the developer needs to add a outer join with DirPerson and set it as a field in list page. Then you will get filter capability. But again organisation type is stored in different table. So again you need 2 fields for retrieving one party type.

In other case you can add a filter in the top of list page and give these lookup either person or organisation and then filter the below listpage. I would go with 2nd solution.
