I am modifying Epicors RMA Process Form. I want to use the functionality they already have built in which in on a field leave it will get the new customer. I have the code to populate the boxes and all of that but I have to use separate buttons to keep the process flowing. I have to manually tab out…

[image] ckrusen: But in the interest of best practices (and to remain in @josecgomez ’s good graces) how should the OP’s task be done using the DataView and not the UI control? user warning, I’m still learning, so there may be some inaccuracies in the statement and code below So that control …

I already tried making them be the get focus. That doesn’t work I need the actual tabbing out of field.

I think I see now… You want the button click to update a field AND initiate that updated field’s OnLeave (or lost focus) builtin functionality. Di you try (within your button click handler) setting the focus to the field you updated, followed by setting focus to the another?

@josecgomez is correct. Remember, in the Epicor UI Epicor codes to Data Events and Data Properties (Extended Props) and does not code to control events or control properties.

The button click set the alt partnum field, and would give it focus, then take take away focus, and the Alt Part Desc would update as if I had tabbed out of the Alt PartNum fi…

Did you run a trace? There are some methods that are called when a field changes (for example in the transfer inventory screen when changing bin locations, there is a server method that looks up the qty on hand). So something when leaving fields, there is some interaction with the server. I would be…

Yes I did and Change Customer is the BO that runs when I leave the field. I don’t know how to just call that BO to happen?

I swore I tried that last night and it didn’t work. But I just tried it again now and it works! I will just set focus.

You should be setting the DataView field not the control.
