Re: Input Control doesn't work when choices are determined at runtime?

No problem, but it tells me Error Invalid file extension: Test_20220524_2204_InputCtrl.bsv So I can attach only pictures? Edit: I the meantime, here are screenshots: I've set up two text attributes, one with static choices and one with dynamic choices taken from a query: Properties static - no issue...

Input Control doesn't work when choices are determined at runtime?

Hi, Just wondering if this is a known limitation: An input control to a text attribute with static choices works - it shows a drop down with the predefined choices. However, an input control to a text attribute with dynamic choices doesn't. The query works and the choices are correctly filled out, b...

Re: How to replace viewed forms in a tab using a process

This seems to be available only for the combination ENTER NEW .. AND VIEW IN TAB
Not applicable for my case. Either way, this action also doesn't allow to set the tab title or id.

Re: How to replace viewed forms in a tab using a process

With the form specific route if the form was open in its own specific tab you could trigger a rule to close the tab then start a process to open the form in another new tab. This will create a bit of screen flash as the tab closes and reopens. Yes, that is EXACTLY what I'm trying to do. How do I ge...

Re: How to replace viewed forms in a tab using a process

I thought it would be possible to simply replace the form the user sees once a "status" field is set. I don't mind if this is done with a button. Either way, simply close the current "edit" form and show the "readonly" form. I can then design the "readonly" version as needed. This solution seems the...

How to replace viewed forms in a tab using a process

Hi all, I'm trying to implement a replacement of the currently viewed "edit" form with its "readonly" version once the user sets a status attribute to something like "finished". Scenario: The status is "unfinished". The user opens the "edit" version of the form in a new tab. The user works with that...

Re: Unexpected dependency of an output target of a process on the process' structure

I see. Thanks a lot for the explanation. "If your process continues to evaluate rules then the output will be a pop up" I guess that says it all, though I would still classify this as undesirable behavior. By the way if it helps, I tested and the maximum allowed number of ELSE IFs seems to be five. ...

Unexpected dependency of an output target of a process on the process' structure

Hi all, I'm getting unexpected behavior for opening a form using a process with the output target set to new tab: - when the process includes just one rule with several IF .. ELSE IF .. ELSE IF .. statements, the form opens in a new tab as expected, no problem (see note) - when the process includes ...

Re: Cancel changes on form / Disabling the "Save Changes?" Dialog

From looking at the log I can say that when only the 'If BO WAS CHANGED' rule is present and only the reference attribute is changed, this rule is not executed. The log includes the "Starting execution of rules when updating business object ..." and then nothing. On the other hand, when there is ano...

Re: Cancel changes on form / Disabling the "Save Changes?" Dialog

Alright, so WAS CHANGED / WAS ADDED TO / WAS REMOVED FROM must be used directly on the reference attribute to catch these changes? Then this formulation in the User Manual: The WAS CHANGED Expression can also be used to check if any attribute of the object has changed may need to be corrected.. Chee...

Re: Cancel changes on form / Disabling the "Save Changes?" Dialog

Follow-up question..

"If BO WAS CHANGED" does not seem to catch changes to reference attributes (if an item is added or removed from the list).

Is there a way to catch those changes as well?

Thanks, andrei

Re: Cancel changes on form / Disabling the "Save Changes?" Dialog

Hi PointsWell,
I changed my approach to use a rule that updates the BO instead of a process, and that does seem to be a bit more straightforward, great idea!

GET_CHANGES looks very interesting, I'll check it out.

Thanks for your help!

Re: Cancel changes on form / Disabling the "Save Changes?" Dialog

Hi PointsWell, Thanks a lot for the quick reply. > What are you trying to do after save? I need to keep track of record saving, so every save operation has to be followed by an update the LastSaved and LastSavedBy attributes, for example. I can't guarantee that, if the "Save Changes?" dialog offers ...

Cancel changes on form / Disabling the "Save Changes?" Dialog

Hi everyone, I'm relatively new to AwareIM, working on an application for our institute, and encountered a situation with simple cancelling of work on forms: I need a way to provide a simple "Cancel" button to the user that closes the form and discards any changes done without asking questions. I ca...
