Hey Wajahat, are you asking how you create a display method in F&O or how you write a database upgrade script to use when upgrading an AX2012 database into F&O?

Hi Wajahat Wasti,

If you need to convert a display method to field you need to add a table that contains "PurchLineShowItemName" field value to the form datasource and add the join source with already existing datasource.

Thanks,

Hi,

On which table this method is written and on which form you want to add this as field.

Ideally, if the table is part of datasoruce on form, you should be able to add a string in design and set 'data source' and 'data method' property to convert this as field. In case you are not getting drop down in 'data method' property you can type 'PurchLineShowItemName' manually.
