Card Page - how to promote standard Action New Ctrl+N

arpadozsvar

Hi,
On a Card Page NAV adds some standard menu items to the Actions menu, for example New Ctrl+N. Is it possible to promote this New menu item (action) to the Action Pane. To have a button also not only a menu.
It is possible that you add a self defined Action New, promote it, and in CAL simulate the functionality, but how is it possible to have access to the standard New action and simply promote it.

Thanks in advance for your replies.

Regards,

well it should be possible. If you look at page 9305 sales order list, "New" is promoted, but I couldn't find where you promote it. (yet)

@Sog - page 9305 is list page, the promoted New action is there because the CardFormID for this list is defined (CardFormID=Sales Order). If you remove the CardFormID, the New action will disappear

@arpadozsvar Create action in your page, set it's caption to New (and other ML properties if needed), set Promoted=Yes, PromotedIsBig=Yes, Image=NewDocument. Now it will look like the standard New action. To simulate the standard New action you may try to set also RunObject=(the card itself) and RunFormMode=Create, also add ShortCutKey=Ctrl+N.

Hi, i tried what you said and it works, but the thing is, the card page opens the first record even if its set to RunFormMode = Create. Is there a way to open a blank card page? thanks
