New form line init with the value from form header

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Kai Cheng

Hi, all,

When I change the field (which is shared for header table and line table) in header level, and try to add a new line, the field I changed before doesn't been initialized with any value.  Only I refresh the whole form(press F5) and add a new line can initialize the value correctly .

I tried to add headerTable_ds.reread() or headerTable_ds.refresh() in lineTable_ds.initValue(), but it is useless.
Could anybody tell me how to init the correct value for the lineTable when creating?


What is the root cause for this? I mean, if I have many fields shared for header and line tables, I don't want to add the field one by one in code. Will change the mapping between two lines help or something else?

Thank you for your help.

    Finally, I uptake a framework and add a method to refresh the lineTable from HeaderTable manually.

    How about refreshing the header datasource at modifiedField method or Write method of form Header Datasource, instead of initValue at line level. You also have to update existing lines.

    Hi, Mohit, I see the link you shared, it provides me a good solution to hook the update of header table.

    I am curious that is there any better solution here?
