I’d love to see this...but is it even possible?

I have a screen showing some shipment package data. Against that screen we have a side panel configured for inventory adjustments. I DO enjoy that I can configure the side panel free of navigation parameters; but it would be nice if I could configure the side panel to inherit a default value based on the Generic Inquiry line cursor focus.

EG

I would love a default value based on cursor focus in the inquiry

 

I recognize that there are some data we’d need to provide; for example in the UI, the Branch needs to be set, and THEN I can select the Inventory ID.

But does anyone see a way to do this, ideally in-box?
Thank you for any brainstorms.

Hi @S1AW,

What you’re describing would require customization and isn’t available out of the box. The side panel can’t automatically inherit or default values based on the selected row in a Generic Inquiry.

As a potential workaround, you could create a Business Event using the GI as the source and configure it to trigger by action. When the action is executed, it could generate a new Inventory Adjustment record using the values from the selected GI row.

    ​@S1AW it’s indeed cannot be done out of the box.
    But I’m collecting the scenarios for different usages of side panels. If you have any other scenarios where it would be useful, please let me know.
