Clearing field after prompting an error message

liizz

I have put a code on Lookup of a customised table.

IF Balance > Customer."Credit Limit (LCY)" THEN
ERROR(Insert another customer name);
CustName:='';

After prompting the error message, the field CustName should be cleared automatically.

I have assigned it to an empty string but it is not being cleared. I have even used the CLEAR(CustName) too.

Please help..

Thanks

Try this:

IF Balance > Customer."Credit Limit (LCY)" THEN BEGIN
CustName:='';
ERROR(Insert another customer name);
END;

The Process stops at error message..it will not go to next line..

If you want to proceed further use Message..

CustName - OnLookup()

CustName:='';

The code which I shared, it is showing the error message but it continues further processing.
Also, I commented the part 'CustName:='';'. It allows processing after the error message.


Can somebody please clarify me?

Definitely some problem in your analysis. The code is not continuing after the ERROR. If yes, whole NAV will broke... :-) May be in the real code you have message and not error...

It definitely does not process code any further after ERROR statement!!

It definitely does not process code any further after ERROR statement, and that is precisely the reason why the CustName variable was not getting cleared.

It is required to revert the data changes on the server to be ready for the next change of data. This revert of data makes it possible to change the next field eventhough there is an error in the first.
