The BOMDesigner form instantly removes the BOMLine when delete button is pressed. Instead, I want to prompt NoYes when the user attempts to delete the record.

BOM lines > Delete in BOMDesigner is a different case. Look into the code (called from clicked()) to see what it does.

You'll notice that there already is a confirmation dialog that you can enable by setting TmpBOMRouteTree.ConfirmDelete. This is code in BomDesignerCtrl.removeLine():

if ( tmpBOMRouteTree.ConfirmDelete && !Box::yesNo(strFmt("@SYS67139",bomCache.ItemId),DialogButton::No,"@SYS10308","@SYS10308")) { return; } this.deleteBOM(_nodeIdx);

I have tried the prompting via validateWrite in code extension but it didn't have any effect:

[ExtensionOf(formStr(BOMDesigner))] final class BOMDesigner_MYMODEL_Extension { [DataSource] class BOM { public boolean validateDelete() { boolean ret; DialogButton dialoguePick = Box::yesNo("Are you sure you want to delete this record?", DialogButton::No); if(dialoguePick == DialogButton::No) { return false; } ret = next validateWrite(); return ret; } } }

Prompt NoYes on delete - Form menu item button

Hi EK,

I can see you edited the question and changed EcoRes form to BOM designer.

You could still do the same thing somehow.

You can hide this delete action menu item by code, add a new one, then add code to the clicked method to open the dialog box and if the user clicked yes, you can paste the code from the original delete action menu item clicked method code.

For the EcoRes form, i agree with Martin about the shortcut to delete.

I was just answering the question on how to implement dialog box in this case.

The idea of the new button isn't an ideal one, because users can use a keyboard shortcut to delete records. Also, simply using the method intended for this purpose, validateDelete(), will be easier.

@Layan Jwei I apologize for the confusion, the delete button is actually in BOMDesigner form.

Prompt NoYes on delete - Form command button

Hi,

1. Create an extension class for the form, and set the "Show delete button" as No
[ExtensionOf(formStr(EcoResProductDetailsExtended))] final class EcoResProductDetailsExtended_Extension { public void init() { this.form().design().showDeleteButton(false); next init(); } }

2. Create an extension of the form and create under the "ActionPane" a new button group, and inside this group, add a new command button and set the command property value as "DeleteRecord", this dialog will appear automatically
(Ignore the namings, I just did it quickly)

Thanks,
Layan Jweihan
