Hi,

In Boyum Account Balance Mass Delivery configuration, there is a 'Preview before Execution' which I am trying to check off using Macro:

I tried click and set commands, both give me the same error.

//Set($[$BOY_26.0.0]|Y);
Click($[$BOY_26.0.0]);

Macro error in UF-055: System.Exception: Could not find Item with UID: "BOY_26" on Form: BOY_85_ACCTBAL ()
[Macro Command: Set($[$BOY_26.0.0]|Y)]

Macro Enviroment parameters:
[Current Form: BOY_85_ACCTBAL - ]
[Source Row: -1] [Target Row: -1] [B

Could you let me know what I am doing wrong?

Thanks,

Ajay

  Hi,

  Click($[$BOY_26.0.0]); works, the problem is the validation. The item is not there yet when the form is loading.

  Only way to do this is to add a IPT configuration and set a "Universal function" value to it that clicks the checkbox.

  

  I hope this helps.

  Using it with a Validation when the form loads...

  Not needed at all. Just make it default in B1 Print and Deliveries Base config :-)

  Hi,

  when I try to apply Click to a checkbox as per above, it briefly checks and then unchecks the box.
  
  

  Click ($[$BOYX_2.0.0]);

  What am I meant to do differently?
  Many thanks,

  Ildi

  Most likely your Trigger is the issue then... It properly define to react twice... Check that 'Before Action combo' in B1 Validation os set to false

  Alternative I also think 

  Set($[$BOYX_2.0.0]|Y);
  
  Will work

  Thanks Rasmus!

  With the Before Action changed from 'ignore' to 'false'

  - Click still doesn't work BUT

  -Set does!

  Many thanks!
