Best answer by Ankita Tayana
Hi
I noticed that the Account CD field in the Customer Material Allocation screen is appearing as a text box instead of a selector. After reviewing the implementation, I believe the issue is due to the field being added to the UI before the PXSelector attribute was applied in the DAC.
To resolve this, please follow these steps:
- Remove the Field from the UI:
- Open the Customization Project Editor.
- Remove the Acctcd field from the form layout.
Save and Publish the customization.
Ensure the PXSelector Attribute is Defined in the DAC:
[PXDBString(30, IsUnicode = true, InputMask = "")]
[PXUIField(DisplayName = "Account CD")]
[PXSelector(typeof(Search<BAccount.acctCD>),
typeof(BAccount.acctCD),
typeof(BAccount.acctName),
SubstituteKey = typeof(BAccount.acctCD),
DescriptionField = typeof(BAccount.acctName))]
public virtual string Acctcd { get; set; }
Re-add the Field to the UI:
- Go back to the Customization Project Editor.
- Re-add Acctcd to the UI.
- Ensure the Control Type is set to Selector.
- Clear Cache & Republish:
This should correctly display the Account CD field as a selector in the UI. Let me know if you need any further assistance!

If you added the PXSelector attribute after you created the control on the screen you just need to remove the control and re-add it. That should give you a selector control.
And, as an aside, that field should probably be PXDBInt and hold the BAccount.AcctID field with a substitute field showing the BAccount.AcctCD field.
Use the code below to retrieve customers in the selector
#region CustomerID
[CustomerActive]
[PXUIField(DisplayName = "Account CD")]
public int? CustomerID { get; set; }
public abstract class customerID : PX.Data.BQL.BqlInt.Field<customerID> { }
#endregionThanks

If your code is not compiled, you need to unpublish and republish your customisations for the changes to taken effect.
Also, you need to remove the field from the UI and add it back so it can get the PXSelector control.
