Hi dears,
What are the exact differences among the aosvalidateupdate, validateupdate, and update method in ax?
which one can be used as a trigger in the table?
thanks.
The first two are for validations before update the record
aosvalidateupdate is for when you update a table object
validateupdate is when the table record is updated
update is for you call the database for update that record
Hi Danial,
I don't think there is any method "validateUpdate". There is validateWrite method which is executed when a record is written to the database.
You can check this link for details regarding all table methods.
Hi Danial, any of these methods (aosValidateUpdate, validateWrite, update) can be used as a trigger for your code.
Usually you would want to trigger your code when a record is updated. In that case you should hook your code in update method/event.
But if you want to add your custom validations before the record is written, then you should hook in validateWrite.
