First time posting, hope you're all nice.
Quick question that will take you a second to answer. But I have to explain it :
I work for a construction company using BC. We purchase material, use up some labour and charge our client for the stuff we build. We therefore use the Job section in BC a lot. And because of the nature of our industry (not buying and selling widgets), we don't have a need for the functionality within BC that assigns and tracks costs & prices *within* each item. I.E. an item in the budget planning line will not have a sell price. An item in the budget billing line will not have a cost price. No need for that, completely separated.
What I'm trying to do is create 2 unique views within the table /Job Planning Lines/
One for when it comes time to invoice the customer :
Another for when it comes time to enter/rejig/modify the budgets :
Not much filtering going on, just several columns hidden in one view, several columns hidden/shown in another.
Ive only used BC for a year, Dabbled in Visual Studio, created table and page extensions, but by no means a true programmer.
So far, I have created a new view via pagecustomization with the relevant columns hidden or shown. However, its sloppy, and loses the job filtering once you click anything.
Am I on the right track ? Is programming this via AL/visual Studio the only way to achieve this or can it easily be done another way, Personalization of a different profile ? Design Mode ?
Thanks for any pointers you may share.
