New fields not showing in form

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by VoltesDev

Hi everyone,

I've added fields in my Sales Table extensions. Then add it in an existing Field Group which is also custom. 

As far as I know, the form related to it, in this case Sales Table form (which is also extension), if the field group already exists, then by adding new fields, it will automatically added and shows in the form, right ?

Which actually, yes, if I open the form in form Designer, I can see my newly added field in that form because I put the field group name.

However, after Build, even Full Build, these fields never shows up in browser.

Anyone know what should I do ?

I have reset Usage Data relates to this form, even tried to reset IIS to no avail.

    Hi Sukrut,

    Yes, for the label I know this. I'm using the 1st approach by only give the label in Table-fieldGroup, and this is not a problem.

    Anyway the new fields appeared now after re-create (re-add) the group control in the form. Maybe I will close the topics. Only still not sure what was happened.

    Thanks,

    The label should come from field group defined on the table . You can try giving it on the form control group as well. Make sure to perform build after these changes.

    Hi guys,

    Sorry, it was past midnight when i left. So here is the complete story.

    1. I already have SalesTable extension with custom fields (those not highlighted) with custom Fieldgroup

    2. Form SalesTable extension also working fine with those custom fields showing. A group control set over there with its property Datagroup filled in.

    3. Yesterday, I added 2 more fields and put those fields in the existing Fieldgroup.

    4. In my mind, it should be added automatically in form, after Build+sync.

    5. In Form designer, I saw it already, but in browser no.

    6. Tried Full build with sync, still no

    7. Reset usage data related to SalesTable form, still no

    8. Doing another Full build, then IISRESET, still no.

    This is where I stop trying, since already taking too long for quite easy task. In Form designer, I deleted the group control and drag again from Formdatasource:SalesTable, dragging the said fieldgroup.

    It appeared after this re-add, and Build.

    Btw, no caption in form-control group. It will take label from Sales table field group.

    Thanks,

    From his screenshot looks like he added a new group control and assigned his field group to that control.

    Hi,

    If i understand correctly the issue appears when you add new fields to existing field group and it's not refreshed automatically on forms like in previous AX version, so you need to restore or recreate group manually on the form.

    Do you have caption set for your group ? I don't see anything wrong in your steps. I did the same thing, quickly added group set the datasource ,datagroup and caption  properties for the group  and did a build and new group is visible on the form. Can you share properties for your group?

    Hi,

    So is it working after adding the whole group again?  Also as mentioned by Sergei, did you restore the group on the form?

    Hi Vinit,

    Eventually my patience is run out. So I delete again the group control in form design, and drag again from its data source:SalesTable - designated Field group

    This is the screen shot of my Form Design of SalesTable (extension)

    pastedimage1598464476142v1.png

    Basically those highlighted is the new fields (2 fields) I added before, whilst the other is already existed before and already in that existing / same field group. And as mentioned, actually I already see those 2 new fields as well before I decided to delete and add again the whole group.

    Still If I can understand why and know the reason, will be much help.

    Thanks

    Hi VoltesDev,

    Have you tried to restore the group on the form (from context menu) and build it again?
