Master Data v1: Dynamic settings deprecation

Published on 4/17/2024
Last update on 4/17/2024

On June 17, 2024, we will disable the following settings in Master Data v1: Calculated field and Change field value trigger.

These options allowed you to dynamically change document values in Master Data by running code from a trigger or updating/creating a document.

We recommend creating an app to communicate with Master Data to replace these settings if you need to update field values dynamically.

What has changed?

Both dynamic settings will be disabled in Master Data v1.

Note that Calculated fields and existing triggers using the Change field value function will stop working on the same date. See the What needs to be done? section for more information on how to adapt to these changes.

Calculated field

The Calculated field was a setting within the data entity fields that allowed running C# code to recalculate the field's value whenever a new document was added or updated.

This field type and the calculated fields created will no longer be available from June 17, 2024, as illustrated below.

Change field value

When configuring triggers, the Change field value option allows you to add C# code to change the value of selected fields for each trigger execution.

The Change field value option, illustrated below, will no longer be available when configuring trigger actions from June 17, 2024. Triggers previously created with this option will continue to work until that date.

What needs to be done?

If you need to update Master Data field values based on a trigger, we recommend contacting your development team and following the instructions below:

If you use the Calculated field or a trigger with the Change field value, follow the steps above before June 17, 2024 to dynamically update the values even after these settings have been deprecated in Master Data v1.
