If you have infrequent cases where close is required - you could still have it, but not have to worry about accidental clicks
s
it was a button, but this way at least it two clicks rather one click, to close, but they can say instead of new or make copy I clicked on close by accident. so trying other avenues. I like your idea with the workflow but I don't see "close" in the workflow condition pop-up
k
it won't unless it is displayed as a button
s
It is displayed as button
k
why would you be looking in the condition pop up?
s
to set the condition if the close is checked show this button
k
no - you'd need a custom field to do that - and it would be hide this button if it's not checked.
s
ooo never mind i thought you said closed on the line i get it now. just "close" as field on header
k
well, they could just check close on the lines and that would accomplish same thing of course - that'd require checking it on every line
s
yeah true, depending on how many lines there are in the transaction, it can be cumbersome, I like this idea of custom body field. thanks
k
You could also make that custom body field close and unclose lines directly now with workflow as well
s
aha! cool, didn't know that
so if i uncheck that box i can create the workflow that would reopen the transaction.
k
your workflow would use a sublist action group that says "if box on header is marked, check close box"
assuming the close box on the lines can be hit by the workflow
s
that's what i was trying earlier that didn't work
k
Looks like it can be done to me

You need a custom checkbox field on header. Then you can use that field as a criteria on a sublist action group that marks closed (line) true if it's marked, or unmarked if it's not true on record submit.

i don't see closed on my option
k
You have to create a sublist group first
and then the action within the group is where you'd see that
