Custom Number Sequence Reference Example

Sti F. Cavendish AX 2012, Number Sequence, Technical Tutorial, x++ , ,

1. Create new field as picture below

Capture1

2. Go to the form, right click and choose restore to reload new field we added before. On the field method, add code below
 

public Common lookupReference(FormReferenceControl _formReferenceControl)
{
    return NumberSequenceTable::lookupReference(_formReferenceControl);
}
