Hi Trieu,
Have a look at Forms\LedgerJournalTransVendPaym\enableButtonsActive
and http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa882795.aspx.
Hope this helps.

Hi Trieu

I assume the 'enabled(true/false)' property on the menuItemButton Object is
used for that ... if this was your question (which I don't be sure about ..).

Hi Trieu,

More detailed steps if you're having trouble:

Step 1:
Go to your button in the AOT, and set the Autodeclaration property of the
button to Yes. This will make sure you can modify the properties of this
button from code.

Step 2:
Go to the form datasource and overwrite the method 'active'.
In this method you can enable/disable the button depending on values of the
selected record, eg:
if(purchTable.purchStatus == PurchStatus::invoiced)
{
yourbutton.enabled(true);
}
else
{
yourbutton.enabled(false);
}

- yourbutton == the name of the button control you set the autodeclaration
property to yes of.
- enabled() == the method that lets you enable and disable controls on a form.

Hope this helps,
Best regards,
Klaas.

Hi Klaas,

Thanks you so much for your reply. I find in active method but I do not see
ButtonHeaderUpdateNow(Posting) in here and I want to find exactly the method
will disable/enable menuitembutton (Purchase order,Invoice,Packing slip etc).
I find in document I see I must override
PurchTableType.CanInvoiceBeUpdated().. for enable/disable for menuitembutton
invoice .. but I can not find method in purchTable will call this method ?

Thanks and best regard

Hi Trieu,

Oh, in this case, I believe the method you're looking for is in the class
PurchTableForm, method enableUpdateJournalButtons().

It says:
/// <summary>
/// Sets the enabled property on buttons used for posting purchase orders.
/// </summary>

This method is called when you click the posting button on the form:
\Forms\PurchTable\Designs\Design\[Group:Table]\[ButtonGroup:ButtonHeader]\[MenuButton:ButtonHeaderUpdateNow]\Methods\clicked

The values (enable or disable) come from the method purchtable.checkIfUpdate
(it returns a container).
This in turn call the method PurchTableType.checkIfUpdate(), which calls the
method purchTableType.canInvoiceBeUpdated().

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Klaas.

Hi Trieu,
If I understand it correcly you need to use the "breakpoint" keyword.
Have a look here but be mindful of this: "Please note that using breakpoint
has a serious side effect:The breakpoint will be hit by all user sessions!
This is definitely something you don't want to do in a live environment.
