'''Steps - OnBeforeSave'''
: You can add below script at 1st line before you click '''Compile Script''' button but remember to remove it before you click '''Save''' button.
:01. Click '''Tools | DIY | SQL Control Center...'''

:04. Select '''New Event'''
 
:05. Enter any name (eg Calc) in the '''Name''' field (Only Alphanumeric & no spacing)
03. How many data source (TDatasource) it had for data entry (eg Sales Invoice) & what is each name?
:06. Select '''OnBeforeSave''' for '''Event''' field

==FAQ==
01. Why when click '''Compile Script''' button prompt error '''[Error] (xx:xx):Unknown identifier 'Dataset''''
: This happen if you doing script on the event '''OnGridColumnValueChanged''' & can ignore the error if you confirm your script is correct.
 
02. How do I know my script is correct when using the script on the  event '''OnGridColumnValueChanged''' ?
: You can add below script at 1st line before you click '''Compile Script''' button but remember to remove it before you click '''Save''' button.
<syntaxhighlight lang="delphi">
var EditingField, Dataset :Variant;
</syntaxhighlight>
 
03. How many data source (TDatasource) it had for data entry (eg Sales Invoice) & what is each name?
: Generally it had 3 data source & some had extra 1 (i.e. total 4).
: Below is the list & detail
{| class="wikitable" style="margin: 1em auto 1em auto;"
|-
! DataSource Name !! Description
|-

OnGridColumnValueChanged The script trigger on changes value in the current record.

Template.Tips-01.jpg
Commonly we only OnOpen, OnBeforeSave & OnGridColumnValueChanged Event


Template.Warning-01.jpg
Avoid use 2 same Event/Action in 1 Business Object (eg 2 OnOpen in Sales Invoice is NOT allow)

Example 1 - Get UDF & Do Calculation

Below is Example are doing following actions

  • Get UDF_Length & UDF_Width from Maintain Item UDF Fields
