A few years a go I made a few posts about numbersequences, in these posts I forgot to mention that you need to execute the following job before you can find your new created Numbersequence. static void NumberSeqLoadAll(Args _args) { NumberSeqApplicationModule::loadAll(); }static void NumberSeqLoadAll(Args _args) { NumberSeqApplicationModule::loadAll(); }

Change the language at runtime
Normally when you change your language you go to your user options, change your current language and the restart the client. This week I got the question if it was possible to do so in runtime. You can do so by just calling the infolog.language(str 7 _languageCode). All labels that you load after calling this … Continue Reading

This works fine when I view the record, but not when I use a lookup. I’ve put a break-point on my postload method and noticed the recId (this.recid of the HRMBenefitType table). This is always the 101090. … Continue Reading
Dialog Extended
