ExtendedDataType FormRef confussion

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 87
Hello,
 
I am going to explain my case:
 
When i open the form /SalesQuotationProjTable/, there is the quotation colum where each QuotationId has it's blue link. When i click, it change the form, so there is some code going on.
 
Now, I don't find how to proper follow the code. Let me explain:
 
- In the form code i don't see any jumpref related to the edt, so my guess is that is hyperlink is related with the related table / formref.
- My next steps were going to the edt (QuotationIdBase) and looking the related table (SalesQuotationTable).
- In the related table (SalesQuotationTable), the FormRef is SalesQuotationJumpRef (display that points to the class also called SalesQuotationJumpRef)
 
Well, breakpoints in this class (SalesQuotationJumpRef) doesn't work. Also, I extended the class to show some info messages without success.
 
What i am doing wrong? 
 
Thanks,
Eisenberk.

    Hi Martin and Girish,
     
    If the procediment is correct I don't understand why is not hitting the breakpoint or showing my custom info message in the SalesQuotationJumpRef extended class. I don't thing is something related to the debugger or the model. I extended others objects succesfully. That's why I said the formref (which calls SalesQuotationJumpRef) was not working in my case.
     
    Returning to my use case.. When i click on the QuotationId, I go tho the same form with a more detailed view of the record. I know it changes some visibility elements, etc. 
     
    What i want to do is to do some design changes (visibility property) when i go to this more detailed view, for example in the ActionPaneHeader. Maybe i can look for another workaround, but at this point is just the desire to understand what's going on (in the code) when i click the blue link given by the EDT in the column QuotationId.
     
     
    Regards,
    Eisenberk.

    Hi Edura,
     
    When you click on Quotation hyperlink from List page it will open the same form which is SalesQuotationProjTable.
    I am not sure why the debugger is not hitting.
    Can you tell us what is the functionality you are looking for?
     
    Thanks,
    Girish S.

    Your description sounds correct to me. QuotationIdBase EDT says that the related table is SalesQuotationTable and the table says that SalesQuotationJumpRef menu item should be used.
     
    Please explain your problem to us. It's not clear to me what you mean by "formRef is not working"? You began by confirming that the link does work.

    Hi Martin,
     
    My question is whether I have described the correct procedure when I click on the quotation hyperlink. Debugger is setup correctly so i don't understant why formRef is not working. In Dynamics 2012 worked this way.
     
    Thanks.

    What is your question here? Note that such logic is usually handled by AX kernel, not in X++.
     
    If you need help with setting up the debugger for standard code, please create a new thread for it, because this topic doesn't belong under ExtendedDataType FormRef confussion.
