Method Community

Hi Chad, So I have watched another webinar on customization and it seems that my screen looks different form th ones on the webinars.  In my "customize" thne "screen" tab - all the screen choices have a 2 or 3 little pictures of paper with the words "copy"  "view" and sometimes "edit" to ...

[quote user="Rolf"]Where would I find that in Method?[/quote] It's definitely not part of our stock screens so there might be a reason why.  I've asked a team member here to clarify and will post back. ~C

I was unaware this was a DevExpress tool...I'll have a look there (and their forums) for details on getting access to the "current" record ID for a report. Thx

In Quick Books on the Receive Payments window there is another button for choosing discount as a payment method.  Where would I find that in Method? We would like to be able to do this through the Receive Payment process as this allows for the auto-applying of this 'payment' thanks, Rolf

[quote user="Blake C"]Could I use that somehow to get access to the current WO ID within my grid? Is there some other way to get access to the current row of a report?[/quote] The only suggestion I can provide for you on this is to look at adding a second detail report to get access to the data you need.  I've got 2 ...

Hi Chad, Thanks for the detailed explanation of this. I had misunderstood how it worked, assuming that higher roles let you see more, but that isn't always the case, and probably for good reason sometimes, lol.   This does beg the question of why  would one assign a user more than one role, as the higher always trumps ...

Hi Rolf, Just wanted to reply to your post above on roles... [quote user="Rolf"]what I'm finding is that the 'override' part doesn't seem to work, and that users can only view buttons at their highest access level.[/quote] There might be some confusion on the Roles that can view area - have a look at my ...

Hi Chad, Thanks for the quick response.  This may be a really simple question but - Where is the "session" you are talking about?  Thanks again. Bobbie
