Creating Custom Link Field

Link fields are those associated with another document type. For instance, in a Sales Order, the Customer field is a Link Field linked to the Customer master.

You can insert Custom Link Field by following the steps below.

Step 1: Go to Customize Form

> Home > Customization > Form Customize > Customize Form

Step 2: Select Form

In the Customize Form interface, choose the Document Type (such as Quotation, Sales Order, Purchase Invoice Item, etc.). After updating the fields in the corresponding table below, navigate to a position above where you want to insert your Custom Field. Then, select “Insert Above” to add the new Custom Field.

Step 4: Custom Field Values

To set field as Link, enter values as below.

  1. Label: Desired label that user wishes to display in the form.
  2. Type: Set as ‘Link’
  3. Name: Desired name for the field
  4. Options: Enter the name of the DocType to which the field is linked

BizCentric offers a user-friendly method for applying filters to Link Fields using the Form Builder.

You’ll notice an action icon on all Link Fields within a Document Type, which allows you to select the filters you wish to apply. For instance, in the case of “Company,” clicking on the icon will open a dialog box where you can choose your desired filters.

After making your selection and clicking on apply, the filtered results will be displayed accordingly.

If you’re customizing a form and decide to modify the filters, a “Reset To Default” button will appear. Clicking on this will revert the filters back to their original state. However, it’s important to note that any filters set in “Customize Form” will override the default filters.
