jQuery - setting field value $(#FieldId).val

Dear community,

I have an issue in an H5 script when using jQuery sentence to set value on a field.

I'm using $("#fieldId").val instruction but the issue is that I can have another M3 transaction opened containing the same FieldId, in this case, the value is set on the other M3 transaction !!

For a full understanding of the context, the script is opening a specific prompt window for a field.

My question is : Is it possible to force the jQuery instruction to address the fieldId on the current M3 program (current M3 tab) ?

Many thanks for your support.

David.

Use the SetValue instead. It knows the field context

Hi @per-ravnborg ,

Many thanks for your answer, but unfortunately, I get the following error:

I can send you the full script is you wish so.

You are not working with a panel field? But a field in a B-panel list?

I'm trying to set the value in 'Ref Text' field, when selecting the record in this custom prompt window (which is a jsGrid)

Hi David! Did you used setValue or SetValue? By error message, setValue that do not exist but SetValue should work. Br Jyka

Hi David, any chance you can attach the Script code you have a problem with here, so we can see if we can grasp the issue at hand better?

I have tested with SetValue , but still the same.
