Table / Form as Dropdown field in another Form

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 492

Hello Team,

We have created a New Form and Table for Country Of Origin having two fields (Country Code and Country Name). We want to have a Dropdown of this Table / Form in Inventable Form. We have created a New Field (type as String but Extended datatype similarly to Country code in CountryOrigin TAble) for Country Code in Invent Table but this field is displayed as a Textbox and not Dropdown. Kindly let us know what are we missing.

Thank You.

    Didn't you forget to add a table reference to the EDT?

    By the way, doesn't AX 2009 already contain a table with countries?

    Hello Martin,

    Thanks for your Prompt reply, can you please let me know where can i add table reference in EDT.  AX 2009 has a Table with Countries but this is specific requirement for Customer.

    It's not in properties; it's a node in AOT.

    Hello Martin,

    Thanks a lot it worked. But when i am selecting a record from the Dropdown it is not shown on the field and it is not saved inventtable. Please guide. Thank You.

    It difficult to identify a problem without more details from you.

    Is the form control actually bound to a table field in InventTable?

    Don't you have any conflicting logic in modified(), for example?

    Hello Martin,

    It is resolved, I was missing the relations between Tables.

    Thanks for your support and guidance.
