ui action overriding submit button

[deepanshanand]

Hi Experts,

i have created a UI Action that is supposed to reset all the fields in the form while creation .

below is the code

if(current.isNewRecord())

{

current.setWorkflow(false);

current.autoSysFields(false);

current.u_phone="";

current.u_type="";

action.setRedirectURL(current);

}

the code above is performing reset functionality but once its pressed Submit button disappears.

please find below screenshot
 

once i press reset , submit is gone and UPDATE and DELETE comes up

Any idea what is the reason of this behaviour

Kind Regards,

Deepansh

Submit button will not be visible, as it is now not a fresh record but the record is created with "current.update();" method. Hence you will see Update button as it is an exiting record now.

And if you want to show the "reset" button, along with the update button, remove everything from "condition" field in UI Action and try.

It works now

instead of current.update () can i use any other function . or can i use onclick in ui action

I need submit button to be there once reset is pressed.

So you need to get it validated at client side. You must use the "client" check box present in the UI Action record. And then call a function from "OnClick" field. And you will be using the client side global variables (g_form,g_user) but not server side global variables (Current,previous).

See the screenshots below, i have created a scenario based on your requirement.
