Virtual Trigger VT1427
Auto-fill Payables Transaction Description
NOTE: Virtual Triggers is a module from the WilloWare Consulting Toolkit. Virtual Triggers provides the ability to quickly enhance GP functionality with small bits of Dexterity code.
Description of Need:
When creating a Payables transaction, ACME populates the Description with the Vendor ID and the Document Number (Vendor ID + space + Document Number), as shown below:
This makes it easier to find specific transactions at the GL.
Description of Solution:
WilloWare will create a Scriptlet for use with Virtual Triggers that will do the following:
- The user will enter a Vendor ID
- After entering the Document Number and pressing the TAB key, (or otherwise leaving the field,) if the Transaction Description is empty, it will be populated automatically with Vendor ID + space + Document Number (up to the full length of the Description field.) If needed, Vendor ID will be truncated.
- If the Transaction Description is already populated, it will not be overwritten.
Assumptions/Requirements:
Requires the separate purchase of WilloWare’s Consulting Toolkit Virtual Triggers module.
