You can set up infocodes with a number of predefined inputs called selection codes. By using selection codes, the user only needs to select the appropriate code as a response.

See Example - Selection Infocodes for examples.

Selection codes can:

  • be a predefined text input, such as Yes or No.
  • add an item to the transaction.
  • add an infocode discount group to the item line.
  • change VAT bus. posting group on the line.
  • run a Dynamics Business Central object.

Display Option

If the selection infocode has more than one possible selection, the infocode can be displayed in two ways:

  • In the POS Lookup window - the codes appear in a table, and the user selects an Up-Down arrow to scroll to the appropriate code.
  • In the POS Pop-up window – the codes appear as buttons, and the user selects the appropriate code directly.

Setting up Selection Subcodes

If the selection inputs are texts, you only need to fill in the Subcode field and the Description field.

The following is a list of fields that are relevant for setting up the selection subcodes with a trigger function:
