I am having the following inconvenient when inserting a custom field on a DAC extension, with Acumatica 17.202.0016 and 18.103.0022 version. In both versions I followed the next steps:

1) Created a "Usr" field "UsrCustomString", on the Opportunities page CR304000, followed by creating its controls and publishing the customization project.

Creation of "UsrCustomString" field

2) Then I selected an existing Opportunity and assigned a value in the new field.

Updating record with new value

Checking in DB the updated value

After doing this, I noticed that after navigating to the next record and then selecting back the OpportunityID "OP000368", the custom field shows blank. The same happens after pressing the cancel button.

Field is shown blank

I tried this sequence in the Cases page "CR306000" and it worked correctly. It seems an issue related to the CROpportunity DAC.

Definition of the DAC extension with "CustomString" value

  • It sounds like the fields are not setup as DB fields? The string field should have PXDBString attribute vs PXString attribute. Can you confirm the field is using PXDBString? – Brendan Jun 21 '18 at 02:29

  • Hi Brendan - they are bounded fields. I have updated the question to show the DAC definition. What is unusual is that the first time I save the Opportunity, the data is persisted in the DB. But when I re-access the page, the values are no longer shown. – Daniel Rendon Jun 21 '18 at 14:00
  • Thank you very much @cbetabeta, after doing the solution followed by the link, it worked for me. – Daniel Rendon Jun 21 '18 at 14:25
  • ah yes i forgot the changes for 2018R1 which we spent a good time updating ourselves. I was thinking you were just having this problem in 2017R2 also. – Brendan Jun 22 '18 at 13:13

The solution that @cbetabeta, worked well for me. Here is the link for the solution

Custom field on CROpportunity doesn't display saved value since upgrading from 6.10 or 2017R2 to 2018R1
