Create a Generic Condition System that can be tied to "all" features

In B1UP there is the B1 Validation System and its open-ended Condition system based on SQL. Similar in B1 Print and Delivery you have the Conditional Report Action.

Why not make a generic Condition System that is the condition alone and then make it possible to hook this up to the various feature of B1UP.

Examples:

1. Let Mandatory Fields be able to link to a Generic condition (for example if BP is not a VIP Customer) and if true do the Mandatory fields check, else skip it

2. Let Make Item Read Only fields be able to link to the generic Condition system to determine if the field is truly read-only or not

3. Link the generic condition system to a Function Button that then controls if the buttons should be active of not

  Could this be used to block all Drop-Down "Add New"?

  Hi Geoff

  I assume you mean the "Define new" options in various Combobox... If, so, although what you ask for is possible with B1UP, then No, this is not really what this idea is about. This is more if you have a set of Mandatory Fields, but for example wish that in certain conditions those mandatory fields should be bypassed

  The need to make rows in Mandatory Fields definitions conditional came up today on a project I'm working on. 

  The best solution would be to have a 'SQL Condition' column in the grids for each of the following: Mandatory Fields, Item Placement, and Function Buttons.  The SQL code in this column would return a single entry, with values of say Y and N.  If the returned value is Y then the corresponding row is executed, if it anything other then Y then it skip the field (as if the Active column was turned off for the row).

  Hello, 

  I have this stage today. I have to send a mandatory field only if the ItemCode is 'FOTHOPOLYMER', but I tried to do it with B1UP validation, and it did not work, I could not duplicate my transaction in B1UP validation. The mandatory field should have SQL conditions. I did that with Transaction Notification is easier.

  Thanks a lot.
