Hi When you configure a PB modeled item on sales order Axapta keeps the record in PBATableInstance table according to the inventtransid of that salesorderline and when you try to configure same salesorderline Axapta reloads the previous configuration automatically. We had a product model over 500 variables and it just works fine.
Bu you need to aware of pre and post validation rules because Axapta run those rules when you try to configure same model which you configured before and because of those rules sometimes the selections can be empty like not selected.But in SP3 there was a bug for calcelling a product model does not keep the data that entered till this moment. But if you make an development and add a buton on the form which does save the selections to PBATableInstance table prepostvalue field , next time when a user try to configure same model will have the saved selections.

What I really need is the ability to save all of the selections made by the user in the configuration user dialog and be able to reload them into the product Builder in a subsequent user session. Is that in the realm of possibility? Our models will be quite complex with 7 or 8 modelling groups with well over a hundred variables and we need to be able to edit a previous session without having to re-enter all the selections and values. Have you ever seen that sort of thing done with the Product Builder? --- In [email protected], kevin murray <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > You can certainly save it as a sales order quote or journal...use a naming convention to track. > Kevin > > stanfvaninger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Our company is just in the process of setting up, populating tables, > and doing training on Axapta.
