Sales Order - How to Restrict Copying of field (attribute) values present under USER-DEFINED FIELD tab while creating new document from existing ones

Did you tried PXCopyPasteHiddenFields attribute? As per acumatica you can use this attrib in custom as well as UDF.

E.g. [PXCopyPasteHiddenFields(typeof(POOrderExt.usrTestField1))]

Hi @Vignesh Ponnusamy,

Thank you for the details.

I reviewed the blogpost and went through the details. The suggested approach is working as expected for the actual DAC fields, where can restrict the certain fields copy using [PXCopyPasteHiddenFields(typeof(DAC.field))] atribute.

But under USER-DEFINED FIELD tab the fields shown are attributes and not the actual fields belongs to any DAC. So, how to restrict such attribute field value on copy action is something we are looking for. Can you help us with this please.

On using Save As Template got below information related to the USER-DEFINED FIELD attribute field.

Hi @vivekm,

To access the UDFs attached to the document, you can try using cache.GetValueExt method. Following is an example statement you can try,

var AttributeAMBATLEN = Base.Document.Cache.GetValueExt(Base.Document.Current, "AttributeAMBATLEN");

I haven’t tested it yet, but I think it should work. You can try to clear the attribute value in the newly copied SO using SetValueExt method.   

I’m looking into doing the something similar but with the copy actions on the SO301000 screen.

Could a different approach be to modify the action in the screen’s workflow to set that field to Null?

Thank you @Vignesh Ponnusamy @abrunner78 for the inputs, we will verify with shared approach.

Thank you @girik06 for the inputs, we will verify with the suggested approach.

The below approach shared by @Vignesh Ponnusamy is also working as expected.

public class SOOrderEntry_Extension : PXGraphExtension<PX.Objects.SO.SOOrderEntry> { #region Event Handlers public delegate void CopyPasteGetScriptDelegate(Boolean isImportSimple, List<Command> script, List<Container> containers); [PXOverride] public void CopyPasteGetScript(Boolean isImportSimple, List<Command> script, List<Container> containers, CopyPasteGetScriptDelegate baseMethod) { baseMethod(isImportSimple, script, containers); Base.Document.Cache.SetValueExt(Base.Document.Current, "AttributeAMBATLEN", null); } #endregion }
