Editable User Defined Field in List Page

Posted on by SelfStarter 70

Hi Experts,

  • My requirement is pretty straight. I extended the Bank Account Ledger Entry Table to add a field "My Date". 
  • I extended the Bank Account Ledger Entries Page to add "My Date" in it.
  • Now I want to put my dates for the lines where needed in the Bank Account Ledger Entries page
  • As in NAV 2016, in Business Central also the Bank Account Ledger Entries page is un editable.
  • I tried making it editable by extending the page and changing the editable property to true, but it didn't work.
  • Also I tried creating a new page with source table as Bank Account Ledger Entry and page editable property as true, but it the new page too I am unable to put any value in My Date field.

Experts, can you please suggest me on the above mention scenario.

    Hi, as far as I know, this is standard behavior. Even if a new field is added, it cannot be modified.

    Editable = false;

    I suggest you create a new action, such as Update Date, and then enter the date in the dialog to update the Bank Account Ledger Entry. This allows the original page to be used.

    If you are creating a new page, you need to add the Permission property.
