I tried searching for specific question but couldn’t find an answer so here I am.
I’ve made an updatable BAQ to update 2 UD checkboxes in jobhead and it works all fine. Now, I would like to be able to capture the datetime when that checkbox is hit and update it together with checkboxes. I know I need a bpm to capture the datetime when the checkbox is hit but I’m kind of confused since the updatable baq is already using a BPM. Do I add a new bpm process under the jobhead update? Or would I be able to do something else by customizing the dashboard that runs the baq?
Thank you in advance. Have a great evening y’all!
P.S.: Here is the BAQ I made. I doubt it will work for you since there are some UD fields that I’ve created but I know some of you are Epicor Gods so here it is: MES_Job_Status.baq (78.6 KB)
Yes, add a new one. The other one is the base one, and you don’t want to mess with that. So use some conditions to check when the check box is changed, then set the UD field to the current date.
The other option you could do would be to put a data directive BPM on the table to watch for the change of the check box. Many ways to skin the cat.
I second @Banderson on this. New UD field and a Data Directive for when the values are set, then set the date.
I personally like having Method or Data Directives doing the work so it won’t matter where I perform the work (Dashboard, Customization, or even DMT).
