Hi Everyone,

 

I've created a report using a custom field 'UsrField'. I've added this field on the parameters as a string Data Type. Usually I would just use =Report.GetFieldSchema('Table.UsrField') in the View name which would allow for a searchable parameter, but since its a custom field, I can never get it to work. Does anyone know how I can bring in the Get Field Schema for a custom field? Thanks in advance!

Wouldn't the custom field have to be a Lookup field like Inventory ID, Vendor ID, etc. for that to work? If you just defined it as a string, what list would it have to lookup against?

Hi Tom,

Sorry I should have clarified that by Custom Field I mean a custom field on the screen. In this case the client wanted an additional custom field in the sales order entry screen - it is a dropdown field. I am trying to getschema for the dropdown options. Thanks in advance for your help!

"Custom Field" = User Defined Field

I tried this, but it didn't work. Maybe sharing it will give you some ideas.

I added the COLOR Attribute as a User Defined Field to Invoices:

 

Then I added two parameters:

UserField with a View name value of =Report.GetFieldSchema('CSAnswers.AttributeID')

UserFieldValue with a View name value of =Report.GetFieldSchema('CSAnswers.Value,UserField')

 

The UserField parameter displays correctly with a lookup.

But, alas, the UserFieldValue parameter, which is the one that I care about, doesn't display:
