Hi,

I have added a custom field to the ARTran table but I am getting an error when trying to access the extension of this table to update this custom field via code.

I imagine I need to replace ‘ARTran’ with something else, but not sure what it would be.

Here is the code I am currently using to access this extension:

var row = (ARTran)e.Row;
ARTran rowExt = row.GetExtension<ARTran>();

And here is the error I get:

\App_Code\Caches\ARInvoiceEntry.cs(55): error CS0311: The type 'PX.Objects.AR.ARTran' cannot be used as type parameter 'TExtension' in the generic type or method 'PXCacheEx.GetExtension<TExtension>(IBqlTable)'. There is no implicit reference conversion from 'PX.Objects.AR.ARTran' to 'PX.Data.PXCacheExtension'.

What do you suggest I replace ARTran with to access the custom field via the extension?

 

Kind regards,

Andrew

Hi Reza,

Thanks so much for that, completely forgot about adding that ‘Ext’ bit on the end, I’ll make sure to remember that for next time.

Kind regards,

Andrew
