As I build custom entry screens for our business requirements, an objective is to utilize generic inquiries as the entry point for a consistent user experience with the rest of the system. I have 3 user entry screens, each of which is on the Site Map in the same place. Two of the GI's allow me to select the Site Map node for these user screens and assign the Entry Point to display the GI instead of the user entry screen. One does not. All of them appear to have very similar DAC structure as well as Graph structure including naming the primary graph in the DAC.
What causes the site map node to be available (or not) for assignment of the GI as an entry point. (For instance, is there an orphaned record I might seek out in SQL from deleting a previous attempt?)
I am on Acumatica ERP 2018R1 (Build 18.113.0018). For reference, this is also posted here on Stack Overflow in case this is a programming issue, although the entry screen works fine leading me to think it is more of a novice issue on setting up a GI properly.
Hi Brian,
I've always wondered what exactly determines the options available in Entry Screen field on the Entry Point tab of the Generic Inquiry (SM208000) screen.
One thing I've noticed is that the list changes depending on what you have listed on the Tables tab. The other tabs (Relations, Results Grid, etc.) don't seem to matter.
Two examples you might look at to gather some clues are the Vendors (AP303000) and Customers (AR303000) screens.
The Customers (AR303000) screen appears in the Entry Screen field as soon as you add PX.Objects.AR.Customer to the Tables tab.
But the Vendors (AP303000) screen does not appear in the Entry Screen field when you add PX.Objects.AP.Vendor to the Tables tab. You have to add PX.Objects.AP.VendorR for it to appear.
So what does PX.Objects.AP.VendorR have that PX.Objects.AP.Vendor does not have?
