Adding UD fields to a view so they can be added to a form

Epicor ERP 10

Once I’ve added UD fields to a table, it appears the only way to make those fields available to a form is to add them to a view which is available to that form. For example, my fields belong to ‘Vendor_UD’. To add them to the ‘Supplier Display’ form, I cannot directly link to those fields when customizing the form (i.e. can’t select them under ‘EpiBinding’ because the Vendor table is not listed in the EpiBinding dropdown. However there is a view called ‘VendorDetail’ under EpiBinding and other UD fields from Vendor are in that view. So I have two questions:

  1. How can I add the new fields to the existing view?
  2. Am I overlooking a straight forward method to directly link those fields without using a view?

It should show in the same view as all the other Vendor related fields. If not, it likely did not complete a full regeneration and recycle.

Thanks Jason. Actually I found my problem. They are now visible under the view ‘VendorDetail’.

Tim,

What was the issue? I’m having the same issue on Vendor_UD.

We’re cloud and they ran a regen last night. The UD Column form shows green for “Table in sync” and “Data Model in sync”

Has the app server been recycled?

It was kinda silly. We do lots of dev work in our ‘Test environment’, so often when I ‘Regen’ it’s in that environment. So even though the fields were added to production, when I ran the regen out of habit I originally did so in Test. So the fix for us was to just Regen in Production.

Had to put in a ticket. They ( cloud team ) has recycled the app server. No Joy.

Going to have them regen data model again, but cannot do this until later. More to follow.
