How to add textbox and dropdown to overridden admi...

mag_roshan · ‎01-30-2017

I have created a custom shipping module for Magento 2.1, which implements 3rd party APIs.

Which is working fine for domestic shipments.

For International shipments its required to send product’s HS codes along with product information.

This API provides a way to obtain HS codes by sending products category or short descriptions.

My shipping module creates shipments using this API at ‘sales_order_shipment_save_after’ Magento event.

As I said earlier Its working fine for domestic shipments.

However, for International shipments since its required to send HS codes, I came up with a solution to select from a HS code dropdown where it pulls codes from API when the user types in product category or product description in category text box under ‘Items to Ship’ table row of ‘New Shipment’ admin page.

To implement this method, I have overridden Magento’s default ‘New Shipment Page’ and was able to modify ‘Items to Ship’ section by listing ‘Product Category’ and ‘HS Code’ columns in that table.

Now I need to know how to add a textbox under ‘Category’ column to type in texts and a dropdown under ‘HS Code’ column which is populated by AJAX call.

I also need to know how to implement validations for those fields when ‘Submit Shipment’ button is clicked.

And finally how to capture those fields values from my model for further processing.

Your suggestions are highly appreciated

Thank you,
