Does anyone know if there has been any documentation released on how the Update button on the grid works. I'm working with grids now, and I've found that in most cases, I would rather control the updating of the grid myself, rather than let the user press the update button. So I guess I have two questions: 1) Is there any way to hide or ...

While working with grids, I've noticed that Step 5 of the grid configuration wizard asks about Editing abilities. If you choose "Allow editing directly in the table" it gives you the option to type in an edit caption. However, I don't see where this caption would show up, as was mentioned in a previous post. Is this just ...

The SalesOrderLine.SalesOrder.Other2 field is the child record that is associated with the current parent record. The SalesOrderLine.Other2 field is for child records as a whole. In this case, you want the former because you are looking for invoice items that are associated with the parent invoice record. Hope this makes sense. - Jason

While working with columns in a grid, I've noticed in the Advanced options for each grid column there is a property for Cell Alignment Override. I've manually switched most of these to "Center", but so far none of the values in the cells have actually aligned to the center. Am I misunderstanding the function of this property or ...

Does anyone know what the difference is between Rate, Amount, and TotalAmount in the EstimateLine table? Originally I thought that Rate corresponds to the unit price we pay for a product or service, Amount is the unit price we sell the product for, and TotalAmount was like the sales extension (Quantity x Amount). However, while working with ...

Hi-Just wondering if you could go through (simply please!) how to add an attachment to an outgoing email...I know you have to customize this and I think that the pop up refers to the fact that the administrator has to do this but I would like the details to supply to him. Thanks! Kori

The path I used was SalesOrderLine.Other2. instead of SalesOrderLine.SalesOrder.Other2.  What is the difference between them ?

Glad you solved your previous issue! The stock Sales Order report doesn't have the field Other2 included. Did you try and customize the report by adding it? Which field did you drag onto the report? In the Field List section of the Report Designer, the path of the field should be SalesOrderLine.SalesOrder.Other2. You must first open the ...

Hey Christian, I spoke too soon without testing. Your user should receive the email as well as long as the Email notification when saving? option is enabled on the bottom of the Invoice screen before clicking Save & Email. Still, you just learned a helpful bit of info which will come in handy when customizing  - Ashur

Hi christian, Yes you can do this by customizing the QuickBooks_Invoice screen, then editing the Send Email action within the Save & Email button. You'll want the look at the Email BCC field and have it use the value of the current users email address. *Hint: Value From Session. - Ashur
