NF11 Enable Showing Inactive Records through Reference

Enable Showing Inactive Records through Reference

Ticket: IDEMPIERE-5573

Developer: Peter Takacs, Cloudempiere

Review: Heng Sin Low, Carlos Ruiz, Nicolas Micoud, Norbert Bede

Description

There are some use cases, when showing inactive records in a list field of parameter can be useful, e.g. displaying Products deactivated by the customer.

Changes

A new Show Inactive field was added to the Reference window.

How to use

If the Show Inactive field is set to Yes, then the Reference will allow to show active and inactive records too. When set to No, only the active records are shown. This is applied to the Columns, Process Parameters and other fields, where the Reference is used.

Future improvements

Idea by Nicolas Micoud: add a new option to the Show Inactive field, where only active records are showed, but on right click / through popup the user can enable to show also inactive records, allow to load the full list.
