AR Invoice Entry - InvcHead Table - UD Field is stuck as Read Only

Kinetic ERP
1

Hello all,

I have added a text UD Field to the InvcHead table for the purpose of taking notes related to our AR Invoices.

I’m running into an issue where this field seems to be stuck in a ReadOnly state.

I have tried going into my AR Invoice Entry customization and setting ReadOnly to False, but it automatically reverts back to True.

I have also tried setting the extended properties of this field to ReadOnly = False using the extended properties wizard.

I have checked the UD Column Maintenance, and all of the ReadOnly check boxes in there are clear.

Does anyone have any idea how to resolve this issue? I have never run into this with other UD fields before.

I’m running Epicor Kinetic Cloud, and the data model has been regenerated and is up to date.

Any help would be appreciated!

I am not sure but, I think the fields in the form are read-only by default until you load up a group. I assume that some method sets all the necessary fields to turn off read-only, once you enter a group. You may need a method directive to set the field read only after a group is loaded.

No on Kinetic, but I have faced a similar issue in 10 where I set a field as one thing and it keeps getting changed back. For me, the solution was in the Custom XML Editor under tools. Under the Custom Properties setting I would find it set differently there which would override anything I did elsewhere. Changing it there always fixed the issue for me. Not sure this is available in Kinetic, but if it is, I would check there.
