anyone have experience with adding custom fields to WMS mobile process pages? would love some tips
a
depends where you want to add the fields. Their no-script approach and very poor documentation regarding customization can make it quite challenging (depending on what you want to do). Significant levels of customization require modifying the custom records directly and not using their "Configure" process pathway.
SuiteAnswers: 87483 and 96705 will get you started. If you have more specific challenges let me know. I'm happy to help. I would just need more specificity in where you are now and where you are trying to get.

I have a little experience. We had to modify the existing processes to make WMS preserve order status. it was by default flipping items in non-good status to “Good” when an inventory transfer occurred.

thank you both for your quick and kind replies! i got the gist of it from the SA articles (agree with you @Automatech very light documentation on this) but still couldn’t figure out why my mobile page element was not showing. finally, i figured out the trick with a little help from NS support. turns out, to display a custom field’s value, you do have to make it type=“dynamic text” and i was missing the message field. you have to include the field ID in there with some special syntax based on where you’re pulling it from and what process you’re pulling it into. in my case, i was pulling a field off of the Sales Order line into the single order picking process, so i had:
{{record:salesorder:{{state:dataRecord:auxParams:singleOrderPicking_ordersList:internalid}},item:line:{{state:dataRecord:scriptParams:transactionLineId}}-custcol_field_id}}

yep, you got it. And that structure is not well defined anywhere. And the format is different for Page elements vs Information Screen Elements.
