Sometimes an eform EForm is used to write to an AX AppXtender application. When designing the eformEForm, there are 2 situations you must be aware of in AppXtender.

  1. All required fields in the AX Application must be filled in on the EForm for the data to be accepted into AX. If the required fields do not have a mapping established and data is submitted to AX, the entries will be rejected.

  2. If the data type for an AX field is a user defined list, the entry on the eform EForm must match one of the values in the AX list. It is therefore best to create either a static list containing the values or an SQL list entry pointing to the table holding the AX values. This will force the user to choose an item guaranteed to match AX.

Check the required fields.
