I have created a new epiUltraCombo to indicate what a customers desired receipt of an order acknowledgment. I have added Fax, Email and Mail to the ListItems string array. I have also connected the EpiBinding to the UD ShorChar02. Everything appears to be working, but I would like to have this default to Fax when a new customer record is created. I can't seem to find any property to let me do this. Do I need to write an event to do so?

[system]

Hi Tim,

Do you have access to EpicWeb?
This is a link to the Epicor tech tip... fairly involved & I've never tested it.

https://epicweb.epicor.com/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?/ePortal/ABDetail&rs:Command=Render&rc:Toolbar=true&Card_ID=3554ESC&Answerbook=Vantage%2fVista+8.0+-+General+Information+documents

You may find another way to set the default if you search this forum.

You can use the 'User Codes' they're under 'system management'. They allow
you to specify a list of values that you can use for any drop down. Just
make your list, then go to extended properties for the field you want and
set it to use the appropriate 'User Code'. After that, if you bind the
control to the field the rest will happen automatically!

Sorry for the delay in trying this, but I'm having trouble finding the "extended properties" you refer too. I have created the User Code for the UltraCombo, but I cannot find a way to connect it under the properties tab.

Sad to say, I was looking for the extended properties under the customization dialog. Duh.

Anyway, I now have a User Code Type...along with (3) codes, call it CommType, and then linked it using the Extended Properties Maintenance to the Customer table, variable ShortChar02. I then set the EpiBinding of the new field I added on the Customer form to Customer.ShortChar02. After saving, closing, reopening and testing, the drop down is grayed out with none of the codes. I'm sure I've missed a step or something?

Remove the field, save/close the customization.
Reopen it, recreate the field.
It should work after that. If the UserCodes/ExtendedProps aren't setup when
the control is created, Epicor won't go back and add the magic to make it
all work.

Sorry to keep dragging this on, but it's still not working. I even deleted the entire customization, exited Epicor, started from scratch with a new customization but unfortunately had the same results.

[system]

I had been using the EpiUltraCombo. Since your email, I have tried the EpiCombo and I can't seem to get that working either. Strange thing, with the EpiUltraCombo, when I click the custom field, I at least get a drop down to appear, but the contents are empty and gray. With the EpiCombo, I don't even get a drop down, the field itself stays gray.

Wow! I am absolutely blown away with the generosity of time here on this group. I can't say thank you enough and I hope I can return the kindness.

I followed your video and it's basically the exact same thing. The only difference is I'm using the customer table rather than the user definable table you used.

I guess to follow up on my initial post, I didn't see a default pop up when you did a 'New'.

Ohhh I thought you just couldn't get the User Codes to populate, if you want
to select a default simply put a BPM on After Get New Customer as shown

FOR EACH ttCustomer:
Assign ttCustomer.ShorChar01='FAX'.

[system]

If that doesn't work you cna try a customization as shown below.

Here is what needs to be done:

1) Declare a module level variable.
Dim lastAdapterMethod as string = ""
2) Add the AfterAdapter event for the Order Head table. In this event we
check for the GetNewOrderDtl method and set the lastAdapterMethod, declared
in step 1, to "GetNewOrderDtl".
3) Add the EpicViewNotification event for the Order Detail table. In this
event we check that the lastAdapterMethod variable has been set to
"GetNewOrderDtl", clear it, and set the default for both the TaxCatId and
the TaxCatDescription. It is important that both the code and the
description be set.

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

[system]

My initial question was setting the default. During the initial response to that question, it was suggested to use the User Codes to populate the epiCombo instead of doing it with a static list directly on the form thinking that would help with the default handling. Once I started down the User Codes route, I've been stuck in a ditch making the drop down populate at all. I have placed a support call to Epicor. Either I am missing something obvious (I have done exactly as your video shows) or there is something amiss with my environment.

[system]

I found the reason why things weren't working on my end. Turns out that 9.05.605, when using SQL, requires the app servers to be restarted after the extended properties step before the magic will be available to the epiCombo. Support says this problem is fixed in 9.05.606.
