Does anyone know how to access values stored in the web.config on the server from a client customization? The reason I ask is that I have some variables I would like to store on the server outside of the customization. I suppose I could store the values in a UD table but was hoping to save it in a…

Even better than a UD table, is User Codes. See [image] Best place to put global variable (UDField) ERP 10 Hi Everyone, I’m new to Epicor so sorry in advance if I don’t make any sense. I am still in the process of learning the software and the learning curve is a good o…

I think UD tables would be the more “correct” solution anyway.

I don’t think I’d put variable like that in the web.config. I’d put those in a UD table like @Evan_Purdy said. Putting them in the web.config could be messy come upgrade time.

Thanks for the ideas. I will post the code if I can figure out a working solution.

Ah yea, user codes. I forgot about those. That would be better than a UD table and better than the web.config IMO.

Thanks everyone for the ideas. A UDCode will probably work in this case. However, I am still left wondering if there is a way to access the web.config or even the client.sysconfig from a client customization

[image] tanner: still left wondering if there is a way to access the web.config Depends on how “universal” you want it to be. Could you accept hardcoding the path to that file? Or do you want it to be all automatic, such that it would be totally independent of the App name, or where it is s…

My goal is to make it as universal as possible so the client code is portable. My preference is to store it uniquely on the application server and the client would not contain any file pathing. In my mind, this should simplify changing servers / upgrades, etc
