Thread: Restricting Account/Opportunity Delete

Restricting Account/Opportunity Delete Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

Hi, I have a requirement to restrict deleting legacy records. If it is not legacy (Created from SLX) then I can let the user delete. I wrote an intermediate script.

option explicit
sub Main
If Application.GlobalInfo("gstrLegacyOpportunity") = "Legacy" Then
Application.BasicFunctions.DoInvoke "Function", "Edit:DeleteItem"
Else
Msgbox "Opportunity cannot be deleted!"
End If
end sub

Problem is, when I call this script in menu --> The Account or Opportunity keyword is getting hidden. I can't figure out why the caption is behaving so. Can anyone please help to solve this issue?

Thanks in advance,
Rekha

Hi Rekha,

You could use a global script to do this and bypass the keyword issue:

From your script you are allowing deletes if it is Legacy but in the requirement you say if it is not legacy. I have coded to allow delete if it is legacy, this code is untested too...

Function OnBeforeFunctionExecute_EditDeleteItem (functionNumber,functionName)
' Run prior to any function execution.
' Return True to indicate function handled the event and to stop execution from continuing.
Dim strView
strView = Application.MainViews.ActiveView.EntityNameSingular

Select Case strView
Case "Account"
If Application.GlobalInfo("gstrLegacyAccount") = "Legacy" Then
OnBeforeFunctionExecute_EditDeleteItem = False
Else
OnBeforeFunctionExecute_EditDeleteItem = True
msgbox strView & " cannot be deleted!"
End If
Case "Opportunity"
If Application.GlobalInfo("gstrLegacyOpportunity") = "Legacy" Then
OnBeforeFunctionExecute_EditDeleteItem = False
Else
OnBeforeFunctionExecute_EditDeleteItem = True
msgbox strView & " cannot be deleted!"
End If
End Select
End Function

Kind regards,

Steve
