    Has anyone modified AP20 to show the Account description?

    It would (ideally) work like GL40...as you key in the account number and tab out of the field, the account description would appear below the account number.

    I could also do it after an A,C,I,N,P type action where I do a DME call...while not immediate, it would have the end result so that the user could see the account description on AP20 prior to releasing the invoice.

    The next issue would then be actually modifying the spacing in this "detail2" section.  Lawson / Design Studio seems to be unmoving in the ability to add a text box below the distribution detail line.  Rows 0 & 1 make up the header labels.  Row 2 makes up the various distribution fields.  I can't add a Row 3.  I'm guessing this has something to do with the definition of the AP20 screen.

    Any thoughts?

      click prperties for detail 2, then on the Body tab change Row span to "2". You can then add a text field under the account number. Simple case of doing a dme call then to get the desc and display it.
