How to have a single click access to websites and external file servers from inside Sage 300 |
Follow the steps described below to have a single click access to websites or external file servers from inside Sage 300. In our example below, we will show how to add a hyperlink for an optional field defined for the I/C Items screen.
1. First make sure you have an optional field with String type as shown below; you are allowed to define an optional field as a hyperlink only if its type is String.
F/E Optional Fields
2. Open the F/E Assign Fields screen and add the created optional field for I/C Items if not in the list already. Select the checkbox on the Hyperlink column as shown below and click Save.
F/E Assign Fields
3. Open the customized screen - in our example, I/C Items - and click Attachments button to open the F/E Optional Field Values screen. The newly created optional field will now be displayed in the grid of that screen with the caption shown in its Value field.
F/E Optional Field Values
4. To enter the link information, click the displayed in the Value field. After entering a link on the Value field, the Description field becomes a hyperlink allowing to open the link by clicking on it.
F/E Optional Field Values
The steps for having single click access to files located on external file servers from inside Sage 300 are the same; the only difference is that on the Value field you enter the UNC path of the file location.
Field Extender™ Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Does Field Extender support 3rd Party SDK applications?
A. Yes, Field Extender supports adding fields not only to Sage 300 applications, but also to 3rd party SDK applications.
Q. What is the difference between Field Extender Enterprise, and Field Extender Pro and Lite editions?
A. Field Extender versions from 6.0E Product Update 2 to 2019E are available in Pro and Lite editions. Both Pro and Lite editions offer identical features. However, the Lite edition can be used only with Document Attachment Applets.
In addition to Lite edition functionalities, the Pro edition allows users to create and work with their own customizations. Three Field Extender sample customizations with their source codes are offered on our website at no cost. The available package includes customizations for I/C Items, O/E Order Entry at header and detail level, and G/L Journal Entry at header and detail level. This is to help users to develop customizations for other transactions. Users can also subcontract developing such customizations to SYSTRONICS.
Starting from version 2020F, Field Extender is not available in Pro and Lite editions anymore. It is available as Field Extender Enterprise. With Field Extender Enterprise you do not need a screen customization executable file to open the F/E Optional Fields Values pop-up screen anymore. Instead, when you open the Sage 300 original screen, the F/E Optional Fields Values pop-up screen is opened automatically next to it. Moreover, in Field Extender Enterprise a new Screen Configuration screen has been added to Field Extender. It allows to define Sage 300 screens where F/E optional fields will be used and Sage 300 users who will access F/E optional fields in these screens.
Document Attachment Applets are not provided as separate executable files starting version 2020, but are provided as a feature in Field Extender Enterprise.

A. Field Extender provides two options:
