Trigger update action of detail

Hi, 

is it possible to trigger a update action of a detail (2) by clicking on de update of the main screen type (1)? The reason for this is because of some confusion of which update button to click.

Thanks.

Hi, That is not possible as the Edit buttons are document/screen-specific.

@Mark Jongeling will the Handler procedure functionality that is to be released with Platform 2022.2 release be a solution for this question? Based on your comments in response to that Idea I would actually think so:

@Arie V, I couldn't say that would be a solution due to not knowing the ins-and-outs of your application, but Handlers could be used to Edit the [Object specifiction] and also update something in [Vessel] for example. The handler is a procedure that does all the Add/Edit/Delete that normally the GUI would do and thus it can also Add/Edit/Delete in other tables other than the Edited table.

If Editing the [Object specifiction] and updating something in [Vessel] makes the Edit button on [Vessel]/the main screen obsolete, than indeed Handlers are the solution.
