NAV2016 Do not insert record while type is not selected

Hello everyone,

I'm having a little trouble. I have a page and subpage in the picture below:

Problem is that i would like firstly to select "invoice type" which has 3 values: " ", "one", "two".

And only after that, programming code would gather needed serial number and paste it in "serial no." field.

Is it possible or you can offer some other alternates?

What i have tried:

firstly choose invoice type (ofcourse it creates empty record) and then select serial no by hand, which causes message "do you want to rename it?" This is bad.

secondly I tried use only 2 values of invoice type, but by that whenever i click on expand window of invoice types, default serial no fills in.

Now i have set Serial no as a "NotBlank - Yes", which now on new entry after expanding invoice type, gives error "serial no. must be filled in. Enter a value", but after selecting invoice type i can manualy select serial no from assist button, which isnt fun to have.

why cant you have Invoice type also part of Primary key and place it before serial no. and set delayedInsert property of page to yes.
