Hi everyone,

I have a page where I use the OnAfterGetCurrRecord trigger to perform some conditions based on the current record displayed on the page. However, I also have a functionality to clear all records on the page, as soon as I clear the records on the page.. it automatically closes the page.

Is there a way to prevent the OnAfterGetCurrentRecord trigger from executing when I clear all records on the page? Can I add a condition to a trigger that runs before it to prevent it from executing?

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi, I agree with Nitin.

Generally, this kind of document will have Header or Lines, you can clear all Lines, but Header still exists. This way the page won't reopen.

Or you can refer to the General Journals page,use Worksheet page, and set multiple primary keys to avoid this behavior.

Hope this helps as well.

Thanks.

I would suggest find the primary key field's value and ignore those while deleting, and you can clear rest of the Fields's value. and your page is closing because the code you have written on OnafterGetrecord trigger, not finding anything, and closing the page.

Try this.

Thanks.
