Hi lisa.

Yes, it is possible. For Apps10 you should follow this steps:

https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/foundation1/040_administration/220_user_interface/020_custom_objects/040_custom_fields/020_create_custom_fields/default.htm

Step by step for Read-Only fields:
https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/foundation1/040_administration/220_user_interface/020_custom_objects/040_custom_fields/020_create_custom_fields/steps_itd/set_TypeOfField_ReadOnly.htm?nobanner=true
 

Implementation type should be: “Select”. That way you can use SQL to describe the business logic for that Date field you need.

Thank you much.
Best regards.

Thanks for the reply but I am still struggling with the SQL and Argument methods.

I need an ‘If And’ statement with using 2 CF Fields already created and the Create Date from the Case

Example:

if cf$_criticality = ‘Critical’ and cf$_Type ‘Breakdown’ then create_date + 12 h else

if cf$_criticalty = ‘non-crit’ and cf$_Type ‘Breakdown’ then create_date +48 else

if cf$_criticality = ‘Critical’ and cf$_Type ‘damage’ then create_date + 48 h else

if cf$_criticalty = ‘non-crit’ and cf$_Type ‘damage’ then create_date +120h

how would I present that as a Custom Field?

Use the CASE statement in your SELECT statement for your read-only custom field, it behaves like an IF statement.

For example.

SELECT

   CASE

      WHEN :cf$_criticality = ‘Critical’ AND :cf$_type = ‘Breakdown’ THEN :create_date + (12/24)

      WHEN :cf$_criticalty = ‘non-crit’ AND :cf$_type = ‘Breakdown’ THEN :create_date + (48/24)

   END

FROM DUAL

The arguments would be something like.

t.cf$_criticality, t.cf$_type, v.create_date

@Technical Outlaws  thank you so much, I will give this a try and let you know how I get on :-)
