     Posted: 23 Jan 2013 at 1:56pm
Anyone know if it is possible to combine fields to make a link to another table? For instance with Sage 100 (MAS200), the PO_ReceiptHistoryDetail contains 2 fields, ReceiptType and ReceiptNumber. So G is my type, then 000100.
 
 
I need a link for item landed cost, which is on the IM_ItemCost table, but it's field has them combined. G000100.
 
 
Any suggestions?

You can try making a text field and concatenate the 2 fields inside then format the field and use a formula like  textfield=field from IM_ItemCost table where you use the name of the field in the table but you'll need the tables in your source links for it to have a chance to work.

if you cannot use a stored proc as a source I would use a command object and concantenate the 2 fields in that where you could use it to join at the source level.
