[Newbie] setting Max value for standard dialogue field from extended general ledge setup

Posted on by 60

Greetings,

I would like to take an input from the user which is a year and i want the max accepted value to be taken from the general ledger setup table.

I added the maximum integer field in the general ledger table field:

field(50102; MaxYearForCommissions; Integer)
        {
            Caption = 'Max Year For Commissions';
            DataClassification = ToBeClassified;
        }
 

and then proceeded by creating a field in the standard dialogue page where i want this integer to be added:

field(SelectedYear; SelectedYear)
            {
                ApplicationArea = All;
                Caption = 'SelectedYear';
                //add max value here
            }

Things I tried:

GenLedgSetup: Record "General Ledger Setup";
        MinimumValue: integer;
        MaximumValue: integer;

    trigger OnOpenPage()
    begin
        System.Clear(SelectedYear);
        // MaximumValue := GenLedgSetup.MaxYearForCommissions; (BC is crashing when running this code)
    end;

    Thank you for your answer!

    Even though I thought about this but I thought there would be a more straight forward answer that I did not consider.

                       trigger OnValidate()

                       begin

                           GenLedgSetup.get();

                          If SelectedYear > GenLedgSetup.MaxYearForCommissions then

                            Error('You have selected beyond the allowed year.');

                       end;

    Thank you for your answer but i think I misled you with my question.

    To rephrase it:

    I would like the user to populate the Selected Year field of the standard dialogue but I want to set a criteria where the max value the field can take is equal to the integer entered in the general ledger setup.

    Thank you!

    *edit:Grammar mistake.

    If I understood correct then you want to show the MaxYearForCommissions value of General Ledger Setup in the SelectedYear of the StandardDialogue page?

    If yes then

    trigger OnOpenPage()

       begin

           System.Clear(SelectedYear);

          GenLedgSetup.get();

          SelectedYear:= GenLedgSetup.MaxYearForCommissions;

       end;
