MORE INFORMATION
Steps to reproduce the issue
|
1. |
Create an Extender window that is associated with the Item Maintenance window. |
|
2. |
Create an item, and then add Extender information to the item. |
|
3. |
In the Item Maintenance window, select the item, and then delete the item. |
|
4. |
Create a new item that has the same item number. |
Extender information is linked to the window and not to the tables. Therefore, because there are no triggers on the tables, the Extender table is not affected when the data is deleted from the Microsoft Great Plains table.
The following list describes where each Window field type is stored:
• EXT00101: Short string, telephone number, e-mail address, long string, and the number in a list.
For example, a record that could be contained in this table is a list that contains the color names Red, Yellow, and Blue. Suppose that you have Blue selected. The table will show 3 because Blue is third in the list.
• EXT00102: Date
• EXT00103: Currency, percentage, and quantity
• EXT00104: Time
