Modify the Picklist Window?
Posted: 07 Sep 06 1:13 PM

fiogf49gjkf0d I've been tasked with adding the NAICS codes to our industry picklist. I can add the codes to the 'codes' column but they won't be displayed when a user pulls up the picklist in the client. Is there a way to modify the picklist window to include this column without having to do major programming? I've seen a few customizations along those lines that were pretty slick, but I'm just looking for quick and dirty.

fiogf49gjkf0d Hello Marc,
Assuming v6.2, update the Picklist's PopupColumns value from 4 to 6. That will force the picklist to display the Code and Item columns, but will return what ever you have selected in TextType property, which is ttItem by default.

fiogf49gjkf0d Very nice!
with 5 it does display the Order column.
Is there a list of values and behaviours?

fiogf49gjkf0d Granted, I realize the depth of such a document would be deep, but why doesn't SalesLogix provide documentation of this type? Or is this the kind of stuff you get when you get your developer certification? (Hopefully I'm not too late to take my exam.) |

Here's the complete skinny on the PopupColumns values. It's all binary.
Order = 001 -> 1
Code = 010 -> 2
Text = 100 -> 4
So, with that in mind, if you want the Text and Code to display you enter 6 (that is, 4+2=6, or 110 binary). If you want to display the Order and Code you'd enter 3 (that is 1+2=3, or 011 binary). The complete numeric list:
1 - Order
2 - Code
3 - Order And Code
4 - Text
5 - Order And Text
6 - Code And Text
7 - Order, Code, And Text
Make sense?

Ah, yes. That makes sense. Takes me back to the days of BBSing. The software I used (and helped develop) used binary for security rights. I guess that would qualify as 8-bit security :-p

The DOH response to this request is that a business firm can have Multiple SIC codes, and multiple NAICS codes.....
I've got a bundle that has a one to many table off of it to store your primary SIC code, et al.....and a complete SIC and NAICS code listing in a seperate table.
I would NEVER store Naics/SIC Codes in a Picklist....simply too many rows.
Let me know if you like to have the bundle.....and I use the Popup return on the Industry or NAICS Code fields to populate the other control...... |
