Hello, Is there any way to setup a default value for the "Assigned To" field in the Outlook plugin? It currently defaults to the username that you use to login to your method account. This requires manually changing this field every time. Wouldn't it make more sense if you could set a default employee for that field? Regards, Aaron ...

Hi Mahlon, I just tested this one out on my end and its certianly a strange one, definitely not intentional. Weve opened up a ticket for our development team to take a look into this one. It appears that there are some back-end functions that convert the numeric value to a text value (ie 5 = Friday) that are not taking place when inserting ...

The action called Day of Week seems to return a value of Saturday on a show message screen, but displays 6 in a text box on the screen. Is this the way it should work?

Hello,  I am new to Method API so forgive me if my problem has an easy or obvious solution.  I am trying to create a function that will ideally be able to automatically export every table from Method into an Excel compatible file, or at least bind this function to a button that will accomplish the same task after being ...

Hi Sam, This is definitely possible, but can get rather complex depending on how specific you want to be with users. If you were ok with the calendar loading and show All users by default (MethodSupport user included) this is a relatively simple customization. You will need to customize the Calendar object on the ...

I was painstakingly working on this and found that if you use the convert function that it displays the format of the date you want and also allows the grid to not have issues. CONVERT(varchar(10), GETDATE (), 101) I did find that GetDate() is working where now() and today() does not work. Peace! CONVERT(varchar(10), GETDATE (), 101)
