Document Linked Buttons.

[Former Member]

Hi all,

SBO/SDK 2004 Patch 30.

Couple of questions re: linked buttons.

I'm loading a user form via xml that contains a matrix with linked button columns - separate columns for different document types e.g. invoices, credit notes, payments, journals. The linked buttons work fine in this way but:

1. I would like to have different link button types in the one column i.e. I want to drill back to invoices/credits from the one column (and not via the Journal ID).

2. The document drill back only works when you supply the DocEntry and not the DocNum. This isn't much use to a customer who can't recognise the invoice number.

Is it possible to drill back to an invoice (or any non-journal document) using the DocNum? Maybe if I could display the DocNum, trap the linked button event and pass the DocEntry to it?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Regards,

Andrew.

Hi Andrew

It didn't work for me too.

Workaround:

I did an extra columnn the matrix with the linked DocEntry.

If you set the width of this column to 15 only the arrow will be visible.

Hopefully there will be other possibilities with future patches.

Andrew,

If you look at the "MatrixandDataSource" sample code that is located in Samples\COM UI folder as part of the installation of the Business One SDK ... there is a good example of how to use the Linked Button (arrows) to drill back from the customer card code to the Business Partner Record.

Hope that helps,
