Adding a new comments box

Hi All

So I have done this before but for the life of me can find my notes, I’m trying to add a new comments box to sales order entry screen. Now I have done this no problem, and then if my memory recalls I need to bind it to something so I went to UD user column Maintenance I found Orderhed_UD and added a new column called Qcomments, I then saved that and then regened the databases for both app servers and recycled the pool in iis. But when I go back into the screen to bind with the comments box I can not find my Qcomments in Orderhed_UD I feel I’m missing something any help would be great

Cheers

Did you recycle the App pools

When adding a UD field, I have found that I have to completely stop the application server before regenerating the database or it doesn’t take. So I stop the app server (wait for it to completely stop), regen the database, restart the app server and then recycle it.

firstly you regenerate the data models, then you regenerate the app pools.

however, this should be done out of hours, as it can stop processes running
