Flow Field displaying unique valies

Business Central/NAV Technical Forum

Is it possible to make a flow field display the unique value of a certain field.

Eg:

Line 1: Value1

Line 2: Value 1

Line 3: Value 1

All lines have same value, so flow field could display value 1.

Eg.

Line 1: Value1

Line 2: Value 1

Line 3: Value 2

==> Not all lines have unique value, so flow field should not display anything.

Perhaps if you explain with a little more detail what the issue is then maybe we can suggest a better option.

Where are these lines? What are the values? Why would the values be the same and why would they be different?

are you trying to prevent a difference? where do you need this field? sales order - purchase order - someplace else?

Hi,

this is for some development that is not standard nav. It’s an overview with goods information linked to transports (treeview). In general the goods lines have all the same information, but technically it doesn’t have to be this way… The transports should display a summary of what has to be done, but of course can’t display wrong info. That’s where the idea came from to display only unique values. When no unique value, the user will have to go into detail to see what is about.

Eg expected result in case of identical values in goods line

  • Transport1 Origin: IN Quality: X

  • Goods Line 1 Origin: IN Quality: X

  • Goods Line 2 Origin: IN Quality: X

Eg expected result in case no identical value in goods line

  • Transport1 Origin: IN Quality: <don’t display value>

  • Goods Line 1 Origin: IN Quality: X

  • Goods Line 2 Origin: IN Quality: Y
