Posted on by 103

Do you know if Work Description field is saved when a Sale Order is archived? It seems I can't find this specific value.

TIA!

I have the same question (0)

    Hi,

    Yes when you do the Archive, it automatically saved the work description from the order to archive order, If the field is not available on page, you can ask developer to show that field on your required page.

    Thanks.

    You need to do a set range, set filter, then find or  get on the "Sales Header Archive".

    Now your variable is empty that is why you get an empty string.

    If you code is in Sales Header Archive table then you can remove the variable and use Rec as in Sales Header table.
