Order of triggers in Table

MelekBoujelbene

Hello NAV experts,

What is the order of triggers execution in a Table Object?
exemple: is onModify before onValidate ?


Regards.

Hello!
OnValidate - then user change value in field and move to next field or VALIDATE function is called
OnModify - then user save record (press ok for example) OR MODIFY(TRUE) is called

And after OnValidate, OnModify not automaticly triggered

That means when both are used in a Table, onValidate of the field goes first THEN onModify when the user press Ok after modification of a record ?

Yes

Let's say you have your cursor on a field:
"Quantity"

On a list page:
1. You enter a value and afterwards you switch to the next field in the same record (with tab for example), this will call the "Quantity - OnValidate" event
2. You switch to the next line / record below after you did some modifications in your current record. Now the "OnModify" event will be called

On a card page:
1. Same as 1. in "On a list page"
2. You leave the page by closing or clicking the "OK" button. When modifications are done, the "OnModify" event will be called.


Tip:
Use the debugger to see how NAV is behaving with the page and table triggers. Helps a lot! :-)
