    Multiple lines in a linescroll

    Hello,

         First i just want to thank you all because lots of the posts in this forum have helped me alot so far.  I am currently working on a senior project at Penn State that requires me to work with dynamics GP 10.  I am trying to create an add in that interfaces with an RFID reader to read in product tags and then automatically gives info to dynamics.  I am trying to populate the receivings transaction window with data.  I can automatically fill out all the data and the form and post just fine, the only problem is that i can only do this with one item.  When i try to add an additional row to the linescroll it does not work.  What happens is the first one goes in fine, then i insert new row again and put in the information for the next item, which seems to work fine but as soon as you refocus on the linescroll or allow the window to refresh all the data for the second item just disappears.  I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas or knew how to deal with this linescroll in order to add another row.  Also if i insert a new row then click in the new row then insert the next item it works as well so there is some step or steps between adding the first row and inserting another that i am missing, some sort of validation or something.  Any help is much appreciated : )  Thank you.

    I've talked to Microsoft several times about their 'linescroll', it jsut doesn't do a lot of the things that you think it might because they do a bunch of things in the form that are not exposed.

    If I understand correctly, the user has the SOP Transaction window OPEN, and you want to scan and insert new lines into a SOP Order?

    I usualy try to do that with the form closed - use eConnect to send the lines to Dynamics and they open the form when you're done.

    However, the effect that you're describing might be caused by an unbalanced order. When you add the line, the total is not correct any more. Or the subtotal, etc. You'll have to retotal the SOP10100 if you're not using econnect.

    This is the rub. If the form is open, you insert a line, and you need to retotal the order. You retotal the table, but that doesn't change the form. Big, hairy mess.

    Better to do it with the form closed.

    if you please i have one question here from your

    Pervious reply you said “I usualy try to do that with the form closed - use eConnect to send the lines to Dynamics and they open the form when you're done.

    Is that mean I can items “N of lines” in the details part to DB from E-connect to an existing Header?
