Examples for Additional Options of the SerialEntry Action Template

The following examples can be used as additional options for the quick add's SerialEntry action template in the Options argument field:

• Min. length of a search string if no filter is applied:

  {"minSearchTextLength":"4"}

• By default, the root record of an item is also synchronized. You can define, that records linked to the root record are also synchronized:

  {"syncStrategy":"UP"}

  You can define that all order items of an order are synchronized once more when the quick add is closed.

• By default, each row is transferred to the server after the user exits a row.

  {"disableRowUpdate" :true } defines that all the rows are transferred when the user exits the quick add.

• If the step size for packaging units were defined, quantities entered erroneously are automatically corrected to the package size. You can disable this function:

  {"disableAutoCorrectPackageSize":true}

  {"disableAutoCorrectMinMax":true}

• {"addSourceConfigs" :true } defines that additional filters that include info areas linked to the source info area (e.g. AT) are also displayed. However, if one record is linked to many records (1:n link) in the source info area, this record is only displayed once (and not multiple times for each linked record).
  Note: Some linked records may not be synchronized if there are custom filters defined on the record. To override the filters and ensure that the linked records are synchronized, set the Sync.IncludeLinkedData parameter to true. For more information, see Filters.

    The syntax for specifying the texts is smartbook: <clientTextgroup>:<no>.

  • {"autoCreateMessageHeadline":"mytexts:1"} -> The message box's title

  You can also define that they are added automatically without confirmation:

  {"autoCreateDoNotAsk":true}

• {"disableRowDelete" :true } defines that a row is not deleted when the value is set to 0.
• {"DontShowRebates" :true } defines that only quantity multiplied by unit price is displayed. Discounts or the net price are not taken into account.
