I have a custom form in Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations with two TabPages:

Overview TabPage: shows a grid (list page style)
Detail TabPage: shows header fields and line datasources

Current behavior:

The form opens on the Overview tab.
When I click New, a new record is created inline in the grid on the Overview tab.
The record is created correctly, but the form stays on the Overview tab.

What I want:

When the user clicks New (and a new record is created), the form should automatically switch to the Detail TabPage so the user can enter header and line details.

Question:

What is the recommended way to programmatically activate or switch to a specific TabPage (Detail tab) after clicking New in a custom D365FO form?

Should this be handled in the datasource (e.g. create(), initValue()), the form, or via TabPage.activate()?

Any best practice or example would be appreciated.

Which form pattern are you using? It sounds like you aren't following a standard pattern for this purpose.

This form is using a custom pattern, not a standard D365FO form pattern.
