    'Select All' Checkbox

    Hi All -

    I have a screen that exports the daily invoice line detail from a grid that is triggered by clicking on a button that only exports only selected rows in the grid. The workaround to not having a ‘select all’ checkbox that applies to multiple pages of checkboxes on a grid is to specify the maximum 200 rows displayed by default and use the “+” sign to increase the rows and check ‘select all’ on the top of each page. I am curious if there is work being done to aspects of the Method platform that would affect this workaround because I have had trouble with it in the past 3 weeks.

    Previously, if I had to export our daily invoice line detail and we had 1600 line items, I had no problem increasing the number of rows to 200 and checking the ‘select all’ button on all 8 pages. Recently, I have been able to select all of the line items for the first 2 or 3 pages and then once I try to select all of the checkboxes on pages 4-8 there are some line items that are already checked. It seems that the rows in the grid are shifting as I navigate to the next page because the last few rows are sometimes checked off when I haven’t even been on that page to ‘select all.’ My export button is set to export only the selected line items (in the event that I do not want to export every row from that day’s orders) but I will only have about 1400-1520 rows in my spreadsheet upon exporting when I should have 1600 – the shift in rows as I navigate pages makes it impossible to actually select all of the checkboxes and usually a handful of line items are missing.  Have you heard of this problem before? Please let me know if this is something that is in the process of being fixed because the export of every line item is critical to fulfilling our customer’s orders.

    Thanks, Birch

    Hi Birch-

    I haven't been able to duplicate this on my account but if you enable MethodSupport on your account (Customize > Users) and give me the name of the screen I can test out the issue with the checkboxes.

    Hi Michael -

    The screen is the 'Batching' tab link under the 'Customer Center' tab. The default view filter is 'Today's Invoices' which shows the daily activity, so I would change the view filter to 'Default' and select to show the TxnDate column so you can view a day with a large number of line detail rows (10/6/11 has 1625 rows in the 'Invoice Detail' grid). The second grid on this screen shows the invoice header information.

    Thanks for your help.
