hello everyone. How can I conditionally set the Pay button to not be visible when I select a specific payment method.
Solved
Set Button conditionally visible
Best answer by aaghaei
I believe the suggested even handler for UI controls status management is RowSelected and don’t forget to set CommitChanges = true for the driving field. RowUpdated will be triggered only if a change is made and if a document with the specific type is selected and no change is made the button will be visible. Please note there is a known issue in Acumatica that if a button is added to the user favorite, then always will be visible.
I would expect to do this in the RowUpdated event. You can call the .SetVisible method of the button/action to show/hide it accordingly.

there are lots of samples on community or stackoverflow but here is one. You can set the true or false value on the fly based on your document type verification you are referring to.

I think
In T210, in Step 3 there is an example around changing the enabled status of a field.
See if that helps you get started. Use the Ctrl+Alt keyboard shortcut to get the details on the Pay button. If it is defined as a PXAction (I would expect so) then you can use graph.action.SetVisible.

+10It was a while ago I studied the materials but if I am not mistaken, RowSelected event is triggered multiple times before and after other events including RowUpdated. So if the visibility control developed on RowSelected it should do the work without RowUpdated alteration.
+3Couple of points, if you want to do that via RowSelected:
- RowSelected of Main DAC class, not secondary
- Make sure that your rowselected doesn’t conflict with Acumatica base code
- Acumatica in newer versions adds more and more extensions, so make sure, you analyze base Acumatica extensions
- Make sure, that other customizations doesn’t meddle with making button visible.
As alternative, you can also try to use javascript. This link describes usage of js in scope of SignalR, but you can understand abou js as well.
