advpl-dicionario-sx

What problem does it solve?

It helps you understand, troubleshoot, and safely implement Protheus SX dictionary behavior (SX1/SX3/SX7/SXB/SX6) without scattering logic across source code or risking inconsistent customizations.

Core Features & Use Cases

• SX documentation for practical changes: explains what each SX table controls (questions, fields, triggers, parameters, F3 lookups, indices, folders) and how they interact at runtime.
• Field-level reasoning and impact analysis: supports workflows to find why a field appears/disappears, why a trigger fires, and what sources reference a given field (via plugadvpl impact/trigger commands).
• DX-friendly customization guidance: provides actionable guidance for authoring validations (X3_VALID), conditional editing (X3_WHEN), gatilhos (SX7), and F3 lookups (X3_F3), including safety notes about encoding and “do not edit SX directly in DB” practices.
• DX-to-implementation mapping: gives a structured mental model and a “map” of SX tables so you can translate business requests into correct dictionary updates.

Quick Start

Ask: "Use /plugadvpl:impacto to find every ADVPL reference and dictionary rule affecting the Protheus field A1_COD, then summarize likely causes of unexpected behavior."
