[jira] Commented: (OFBIZ-218) Lookup buttons invoked from a lookup screen don't work because they return the selected value to the main window (instead of to the first lookup window).

Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-218:
---------------------------------------

Fabien,

This looks far better, but it does not solve the problem entirely. If you test with my example (as Jacopo reminded in his comment above "There is a problem calling a lookup from a lookup window. Most of the time it fails else with an error message or doing nothing (see lookups in contentId lookup from Product/Content) and when you get to the second lookup (see Fixed Asset Id in WorkEffortId llokup from Product/WorkEffort) and it works, you never get back to the first lookup where the Id is needed. "

Now we are able to open the second lookup and even to choice a Fixed Asset Id, but then it does not reopen the calling lookup and the action fails.

Thanks for the try, this a good base to pursue if someone is interested...

> If you open a lookup window and then in the lookup window's form there is a new lookup link, that link will load a new lookup screen inside the same popup windows: the system will try to assign the value you'll select there to one of the fields of the main window (instead of one of the fields of the first lookup form).
> To reproduce this:
> 1) Accounting app
> 2) Find Payments
> 3) Choose a payment that still has an amount left to apply
> 4) Application tab
> 5) lookup from the invoices Id field
> 6) on that popup lookup from the "From Party Id" field on that screen to a lookup
