Multiple lookup selection on a grid field in AX

Posted on by D365 beginner 572

Hi Experts,

I have a requirements that I should have a dropdown field in a form grid and the user should be able to select multiple records. specifically the dropdown should be the production orders list and if the user select 2 or 3 production orders together and press OK the sum of quantity produced for those orders should appear in the field. Is this possible if I create a lookup form,  call this form as a look up for the field and add code to calculate the sum of quantities in the clicked method of OK button ? or I must go for SysLookupMultiSelectGrid class.

Thanks in advance.

    Sorry, they don't differ much for me, but you're right, I misled you.

    I did not review the example below in detail, but if I'm not mistaken, the structure you're looking for must be something similar (see the last sections).

    I'll share a better example when I have time

    Hi Ergun,

    Thanks for your response. Kindly note that the sample you have provided will not work with a grid field control. Is there any sample If it is possible to get it done by custom lookup form ?

    It is possible in both ways. If you do a custom lookup form, you have to pass the value you calculated back to the caller.

    When you use SysLookupMultiSelectGrid, you need to fill the RecId list into the container and calculate the sum in the loop.
