In order to call the AEC Manager codeunit function we need to define some methods in the Application Manager. For this we need to follow these steps

1. Open NAV Developer Environment.

2. Goto Codeunit> Application Management (ID-1) and click on Design option.

1. Define Variables :

a. Goto View > C/AL Globals

b. Name : AECManager, Datatype : Codeunit, Structure : AEC Manager

For Modify and Rename we need to define two local variables (RecRef and xRecRef) while for Insert and Delete we need only one (RecRef)

a. Goto View > C/AL Locals

Under Parameters :

b. Name : RecRef Datatype : RecordRef

Name : xRecRef Datatype : RecordRef

1. Under the OnDatabaseInsert, OnDatabaseModify, OnDatabaseDelete and OnDatabaseRename define methods as follows:

Item variant

a. Inserting Item Variant

For inserting the Item Variant in the Web Product Child Details we have created a variable varCUAECItem on the Item Variant table for calling the insert function.

To modify the item variant on the web Product Child Details page, we have to use the same variable varCUAECItem.

Then on the OnModify function of the Item Variant table we have to call the modify function() : OnItemVariantModify() with the help of the varCUAECItem variable for executing the variant modification.

c. Deleting Item Variant

For Deleting the item variant from the web Product Child Details page, we have to use the same variable varCUAECItem.
