Hi, I have a requirement where an excel report needs to be generated as part of a export functionality. This excel report should have Header, Body (to be extracted from database) and Footer contents. I am using Export DSE to Excel smart service to generate the extract using Header and Body contents. I am having a tough time in populating the values for footer. Sample of the expected excel report is provided below. Here, Generated By and Generated On along with its respective values (xxxxx and yyyyy) are the footer details that should be available in the excel report when it is generated. Please note that Generated By and Generated On is just an example that I have provided here. It can be anything based on client's requirement which needs to be populated for each excel report. How can I achieve this requirement ?  Regards, Deepak

I'm working through the step-by-step guide for building an app, and I'm having trouble with something on Exercise 10: Process Modeling 101, Part 1. The guide tells me to open the AX Add Vehicle process model, click the Properties button, navigate to the Variables tab, click the record variable, and update the name to vehicle. Which I did: Next, the guide instructs me to click the Expression Editor icon next to the Process Display Name field, open the rule in a new tab, and change the name of the record rule input to vehicle. Which I did: I saved changes, as instructed, and returned to the process model. In the expression, I deleted record: pv!record and replaced it with vehicle: pv!vehicle: Finally, I'm instructed to navigate to the Process Start Form tab and make sure the rule inputs and values for this interface are vehicle and cancel. Cancel is there, but vehicle is still record: I changed the drop down to show vehicle from whatever it was sho

Hi, I want to be able to unselected all the labels that appears in the legend by using a button or any other way. I do not know how to have access to the variable that store a value to know if the label has been selected or unselected. For example, in the first picture there is only 3 label selected, so the graphic show the 3 data lines, every one related to its own label. In the second one, one of the label has been unselected, so the data related to this one does not appear in the graphic. I would like to know how to have access to this parameter so I could make this change without the needing of clicking the label directly. Thanks in advance. PS: here the piece of code that define the linechart, if it is helpfull. a!lineChartField( label: "Forecast", labelPosition: "ABOVE", categories: { union(local!data.date, local!data.date) }, series: { a!forEach( items: union( local!data.consumable, local!data.consumable ), expression: { a!chartSeries( label: fv!item, data

Hi All, How can we achieve DocuSign or Adobe Sign over email. we have a use case, where a mail will be sent to an user, and the user has to sign the document to confirm the receive of the mail.  We are using On-Prem version 22.1. Thanks in advance. Warm Regards Vineeth

I have an action in a record type. I've set up a very simple visibility rule for it, but it behaves weirdly. The record type has a field Canceled of type Boolean and it cannot have null values. The visibility rule is configured to show the action only if it's not canceled. The action is available for users in a read-only grid and in a Related Actions tab of record's overview. There's always correct behavior in the Related Actions tab. In the read-only grid the action is shown only if I add a check for NULL to its visibility rule. And in that case the actions is always visible in the grid, no matter if it's canceled or not. So it behaves like Canceled is always NULL, though there's always a value. What might be causing this problem? We are still on Appian 21.4 hosted in our environment, not sure if it matters.

Hi All, Could someone please help me understand the difference between data Sync and immediate data sync for record type. I was referring "https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/20.4/Record_Type_Object.html#data-sync and in that I am confused with the topics "Data sync" "Updating synced record types"   Under "Data sync" the below criteria is given: You should only enable sync for your record type if: Your source data changes infrequently outside of Appian and it doesn't need to be synced into Appian more than once a day.   Where under the topic  "Updating synced record types" it talks about immediate update? Thanks Faisal

Hi All,We have an issue while trying to publish the Data Store.Couple of points to give you a background: Appian User is not assigned with proper Default DB Schema - the schema where all of the tables and views are held - (Therefore we're using Synonyms) After upgrade to Appian 22.4 we're unable to Verify / Publish the data store We have found the workaround by adding schema  annotation to all CDT XSD <xsd:appinfo source="appian.jpa">@Table(name="TABLENAME", schema="SCHEMA"). This workaround fails however when the CDT in question has 'primitive array'. In such case Appian creates a related table for the 'array' field.Because those tables were created in another schema we now cannot publish the entire Data Store. We have multiple such tables, therefore we would appreciate any help (Other than changing the default schema - which is currently not an option in our business case). Can you please advise if you

In Python, how can I practise polymorphism? Assume we have a very basic version of the option pricing algorithm that requires just three inputs (option type, spot price, and strike price) to compute the intrinsic value of our option. Please see the example code below. from abc import ABC, abstractmethod import attr @attr.s(auto_attribs=True, frozen=True) class Option(ABC): strike_price:float @abstractmethod def price(self, spot_price: float): raise NotImplementedError("This method must be implemented in the subclasses.") class Call(Option): def price(self,spot_price: float) -> float: return spot_price - self.strike_price class Put(Option): def price(self,spot_price: float) -> float: return self.strike_price - spot_price def calculate_option_price(option_type:str, spot_price:float, strike_price:float) -> float: if option_type == "CALL": return Call(strike_price=strike_price).price(spot_price=spot_price) elif option_ty
