Discussion posts and replies are publicly visible
saveInto:{fv!item.employerName, a!save(cdtname.employerName, save!value)}
it wont work sandeep, its shows error
its also not working
According to what I can tell from this screenshot, you haven't done what Peter said needs to be done to accomplish this.
In this screenshot, you're still attempting to use a saveInto in a Read Only field, which will (by definition) never execute its save since no user interaction is possible.
Hi Mike,
i have done what peter said , but still it wont working
Swetha you are missing value field in a!dynamiclink()
see the example below
addRowlink: a!dynamicLink( label: "Add Product", value: { dtOfMft: today() }, saveInto: { a!save(local!products, append(local!products, save!value)) } )
@vamsik -- The dynamic link does not need a value when the only save being executed is within a!save(), fyi. In your example code above, the value field adds no additional functionality compared to the same code with no value field.
My only guess for why this isn't working is because you copied and pasted Peter's suggested code exactly, without actually replacing "type!Timesheet" with the type! declaration for your actual CDT as utilized in ri!timeline. I can tell this hasn't been completed correctly because it'll look quite a bit different when you've successfully added a type! declaration on the form. At the end it'll look a bit more like this:
Hi mike,
i have tryed this one too,
The example you posted above might work except you didn't fill in the value for "employeeName" in your 'type!DSR_TimeSheetLineItem' call.
That said, it might be a bit simpler to use the method Peter was recommending previously (just.. filled out correctly), in which you can ignroe the "value:" parameter and just declare the value in the a!save() call.
addRowLink: a!dynamicLink( label: "Add Timesheet", saveInto: { a!save( target: ri!timeline, value: append( ri!timeline, 'type!{urn:com:appian:types:DSR}DSR_TimeSheetLineItem'( employerName: loggedInUser() ) ) ) } )
Thank you for the answer
Thanks for confirming - though i'm slightly confused why my reply also (apparently) got a downvote
sorry by mistakenly i click on that instead of verify the answer.
no worries - thanks for fixing :)
Hi mike again logged in user not saving into every record
I believe you changed this to include multiple variables (DSR_TimeSheet and timeline). Is it possible that your type listed in the expression is no longer the correct type for the timeline?
