X++ : Filter Enum Values on Form lookup Ax 2012 / Ax 2009

Often there are requirements/ design changes, where we need to filter and display on a few enum values in a Form lookup, For this purpose we can use the following code.

This code basically filters the enum based on the values from Set.

public class FormRun extends ObjectRun

{

    SysFormEnumComboBox         sysFormEnumComboBox;

    Set                         enumSet;// = new Set(Types::Enum);

}

In init method :

enumSet= new Set(Types::Enum);

    enumSet.add(MetalType::Gold);

    enumSet.add(MetalType::Silver);

    enumSet.add(MetalType::Palladium);

    enumSet.add(MetalType::Platinum);

    sysFormEnumComboBox  = sysFormEnumComboBox::newParameters(element,element.controlId(formControlStr(TTMetalRateCreate,acunder)),enumNum(MetalType),enumSet);

Hope This Helps

happy Daxing.
