Hi BlakeC [quote user="Blake C"]Is there some sort of auto data cleanup task Method has that goes through tables and deletes records that look a certain way?[/quote] There is no auto data cleanup with Method but what you might be running into is the transaction history setting.  By default we're syncing data for 31 days so if ...

Currently I have been unalbe to have the Email Type field be updated with Shipment Notification at this point. Trying to make a button that according to a word contained in the subject field would lable email type field Shipment Notification. I want this to loop through the entire grid and save it as such.

Hi AutumnW, Please list the actions that are used in your Save and Update links and for which Event type they are triggered, e.g. Select, Text Change, etc. If new entries aren't saving try using a button outside the grid which Saves all sections. Let me know what happens. - Ashur

Hi NeilRick, For action number three on your first button, it updates the Email Type to Shipment Notification. If you reload your screen and view your grid, is the Email Type field actually updated to Shipment Notification for that record? If so, try adding a Show Message action with unique text after each action in your second ...

Is there any way I can check a value for NULL or empty prior to attempting to use it in an action? I've customized my Item table by adding a couple fields. Most Item records will not have a value set for these new custom fields but if an Item does have a value I need to use it in a series of custom Actions. When I use the 'Retrieve Value ...

For some reason a handful of Estimates were purged from the Estimate table for a time period a couple months back. Is there some sort of auto data cleanup task Method has that goes through tables and deletes records that look a certain way? I certainly don't remember removing 40 Estimates on my own. Nor did my salesmen do this. During ...

I created a custom screen that contains just a grid, attached to the time tracking table and allows edits to be made directly in the grid, as well as adding new records. I have actions in place to update fields when/if certain changes are made and there are also Delete and Save link fields in the grid. Most edits are working fine and ...
