Matrix pages - NAV2009 SP1

almarka

Hey guys,

Is there any good written how-to guide for creating matrix pages in NAV 2009 Sp1?

There are plenty of documents how to transform matrix forms to pages. But what if I do not need forms? How to create it from scratch?

Thanks!

Ok, let's forget about the document. Instead, how would you do that? How do you usually create matrix-like pages? Has anyone got experience in that?

Hi,

The transformation will involve creating some new form - redesigned original matrix form.A codeunit is specially availaible in the application "Codeunit 9200 Matrix Management".You can refer this link or C/SIDE Reference guide:

Also there is a example for Acc. Schedule Overview here :

Thanks, but this is not what I am asking about.

What I am really looking for is what is the best way to create matrix-like page without creating form and then transforming it to a page.

It would be great to hear from those who already did that kind of things.

Hi Almarka,

I have not been involved in the Matrix Form/Page project, but I have made a blog on how to create a Matrix Report. I know that is not what you are asking, but maybe this could help you, and maybe you could create this a report instead of a page?
