Insert Customer Location from an action - acumatica

Question

I have an action where a new customer location is created.
So far, I'm just trying to load the page with an existing record.
With this code, the result is positive
public virtual IEnumerable NewLocation(PXAdapter adapter)
{
CustomerLocationMaint locationGraph = PXGraph.CreateInstance<CustomerLocationMaint>();
Location locationRow = new Location();
locationGraph.Location.Current = locationGraph.Location.Search<Location.locationID>(116, "ABARTENDE");
locationGraph.Location.Insert(locationRow);
throw new PXRedirectRequiredException(locationGraph, null) { Mode = PXBaseRedirectException.WindowMode.NewWindow };
return adapter.Get();
}
However, this other version loads the page blank:
public virtual IEnumerable NewLocation(PXAdapter adapter)
{
CustomerLocationMaint locationGraph = PXGraph.CreateInstance<CustomerLocationMaint>();
Location locationRow = new Location();
locationRow.BAccountID = 109; //ABARTENDE
locationRow.LocationID = 116; //MAIN
locationGraph.Location.Insert(locationRow);
throw new PXRedirectRequiredException(locationGraph, null) { Mode = PXBaseRedirectException.WindowMode.NewWindow };
return adapter.Get();
}
I need to have a version similar to the second one, because eventually, the new LocationCD will be entered from this action.
Any ideas?

In the second example, you're trying to set the LocationID explicitly, this is an identity field that needs to be assigned. I found a couple of examples in the source:
public PXDBAction<BAccount> addLocation;
[PXUIField(DisplayName = Messages.AddNewLocation)]
[PXButton(ImageKey = PX.Web.UI.Sprite.Main.DataEntry)]
public virtual void AddLocation()
{
var row = BAccount.Current;
if (row == null || row.BAccountID == null) return;
LocationMaint graph = null;
switch (row.Type)
{
case BAccountType.VendorType:
graph = PXGraph.CreateInstance<AP.VendorLocationMaint>();
break;
case BAccountType.CustomerType:
graph = PXGraph.CreateInstance<AR.CustomerLocationMaint>();
break;
default:
graph = PXGraph.CreateInstance<LocationMaint>();
break;
}
var newLocation = (Location)graph.Location.Cache.CreateInstance();
newLocation.BAccountID = row.BAccountID;
var locType = LocTypeList.CustomerLoc;
switch (row.Type)
{
case BAccountType.VendorType:
locType = LocTypeList.VendorLoc;
break;
case BAccountType.CombinedType:
locType = LocTypeList.CombinedLoc;
break;
}
newLocation.LocType = locType;
graph.Location.Insert(newLocation);
PXRedirectHelper.TryRedirect(graph, PXRedirectHelper.WindowMode.NewWindow);
}
