I want to add some new options in this default attribute. How can I create a new attribute using this attribute ? I have tried extending this attribute in my new attribute but that doesn't work. Can anyone help me here ?

Hi @param2022  Below links might help you!! Please do refer.

@Naveen Boga i tried the code in the link you have shared and it is not working as I want it to. But i think if focuses on creating a new attribute and not extending the existing attribute into newly created attribute.

I am able to create a new Attribute successfully but I don’t want to write the options that are already present in the StringList, I just want to inherit existing ones and add the new ones.

Hi @param2022  If that is the case, you can refer to the below link.

This article will explain about adding new items to the existing dropdown by inheriting the existing attribute list

hope this helps!

@Naveen Boga this link has solved a lot of issue. But In one of the dropdown there is this formula that is preventing new fields to be added over there any way to solve this or override this? I created a new field in DACExtension bu still it is not showing updated options over here. At oyher places new options are added sucessfully.

>CRMSources]
>PXDBString(1, IsFixed = true, BqlField = typeof(Standalone.CROpportunity.source))]
>PXFormula(typeof(BqlOperand<Current<source>, IBqlString>.When<BqlOperand<Current<source>, IBqlString>.IsNotNull>.Else<Use<Selector<contactID, Contact.source>>.AsString>))]
>PXMassUpdatableField]
>PXUIField(DisplayName = "Source", Visibility = PXUIVisibility.Visible, Visible = true)]
public virtual string Source { get; set; }

this is the base field I am trying to override.

Hi @param2022  Did you check by removing the PXFormula] and PXMassUpdatableField] attributes?

@Naveen Boga Yes I have only mentioned this much in my DAC Extension.

>NewSources]
>PXMergeAttributes(Method = MergeMethod.Append)]
      
public string Source { get; set; }
public abstract class source : BqlType<IBqlString, string>.Field<source> { };

Hi Param,

Also, try like below.

  • Remove the Base Attribute
  • Then add new attribute i.e. [NewSources]

screenshot for reference.

 

 

 

@Naveen Boga 

 

#region
        ÂNewSources]
        PXMergeAttributes(Method = MergeMethod.Append)]
        /PXRemoveBaseAttribute(typeof(CRMSourcesAttribute))]
        public string Source { get; set; }
        public abstract class source : BqlType<IBqlString, string>.Field<source> { };
        #endregion

 

this is my current code and after publishing this, it is showing error.
