Autofill a field if option in previous is chosen

aquinco · 2016-07-12

Hello everyone

I created a table that has fields "Employee No.", "Type" where options are: Employee and Family member, "Relative Code" and "Name".
I need to automatically fill Name with a name from table 5200 if type :: Employee and fill it with the name of the relative from table "Employee relative" if type :: Family member.
What code and in which trigger should I write to make this happen?
Please help,
This is of great importance to me and none of my codes worked

I would put the code in the OnValidate trigger of the field that you are selecting the value in.
The code would have to have an if statament, something like below;

IF "Relative Code" <> '' THEN
IF Type = Type::"Family Member" THEN BEGIN
EmployeeRelative.GET("Relative Code");
Name := EmployeeRelative.Name;
END ELSE BEGIN
Employee.GET("Relative Code");
Name := Employee.Name;
END;
ELSE
Name := '';

Howdy, Stranger!
