hello Danny, this is being executed inside expression rule once the data is calculated is being passed to the RPA. Replicating this in Process will generate many nodes not sure it this will be optimal.

If you only need to use the Excel Tools plugin, look into running this expression within a process model instead of an RPA robotic process

I have chaged the code a little bit, so basicaly in this loop let's say if on 4th iterration lecalid is null than the loop should stop.

a!localVariables(  
  local!countB: {30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,42,44},
  local!data: 
  if(
    rule!LEGO_IsEmpty(excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {11}, columnNumbers: {2}, rowNumbers: {30})), 
    'type!{urn:com:appian:types:BTR}BTR_H1_1'(), 
     a!forEach(
      items: local!countB,  
      expression: 'type!{urn:com:appian:types:BTR}BTR_H1_1'(
        id: fv!index,
        legalId: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {11}, columnNumbers: {2}, rowNumbers: {fv!item}),
        name: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {11}, columnNumbers: {3}, rowNumbers: {fv!item}),
        address: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {11}, columnNumbers: {6}, rowNumbers: {fv!item}),
        percentage: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {11}, columnNumbers: {9}, rowNumbers: {fv!item}),
        position: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {11}, columnNumbers: {10}, rowNumbers: {fv!item}),
      )
      )
  ),    
  local!data
)

If I am understanding you reqs right, it might be easier to have successive local variables:

a!localVariables(
   local!isDataANull: rule!LEGO_IsEmpty(excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {10}, columnNumbers: {3}, rowNumbers: {20})),
   local!dataA: if(local!isDataANull, 
    'type!{urn:com:appian:types:BTR}BTR_E_1'(), 
    updatedictionary(local!type, 
        {
          cas101: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {10}, columnNumbers: {3}, rowNumbers: {20}),
          cas201: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {10}, columnNumbers: {5}, rowNumbers: {20}),
          cas301: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {10}, columnNumbers: {7}, rowNumbers: {20}),
          cas401: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {10}, columnNumbers: {8}, rowNumbers: {20}),
          cas601: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {10}, columnNumbers: {12}, rowNumbers: {20}),
          cas202: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {10}, columnNumbers: {17}, rowNumbers: {20}),
          cas302: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {10}, columnNumbers: {20}, rowNumbers: {20}),
        }
    )
   )    
  ),  
  local!dataB: if(or(isnull(local!isDataANull), isnull(/*your other condition)),
    null,
    rule!yourLogicRuleForDataB)
   ),
   /*Do Something with local DataB*/
 )

example of the goal:

a!localVariables(
   local!data: 
  if(
    rule!LEGO_IsEmpty(excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {10}, columnNumbers: {3}, rowNumbers: {20})), 
    'type!{urn:com:appian:types:BTR}BTR_E_1'(), 
      a!localVariables(
        local!data: updatedictionary(local!type, 
        {
          cas101: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {10}, columnNumbers: {3}, rowNumbers: {20}),
          cas201: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {10}, columnNumbers: {5}, rowNumbers: {20}),
          cas301: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {10}, columnNumbers: {7}, rowNumbers: {20}),
          cas401: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {10}, columnNumbers: {8}, rowNumbers: {20}),
          cas601: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {10}, columnNumbers: {12}, rowNumbers: {20}),
          cas202: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {10}, columnNumbers: {17}, rowNumbers: {20}),
          cas302: excelreadcellsbynumber(excelDoc: ri!document, sheetNumbers: {10}, columnNumbers: {20}, rowNumbers: {20}),
        }
        ),
        if()
      )    
  ),  
  local!data
)

well it is actually not related to button press, it is one expression which is given certain data and have to check it all. lines of data, if the next line does not contains data stop iterations are this point.

Hi Vladimir, you should be able to achieve this but the solution will depend on where you are performing this and what it is doing. Is this used for a!save() when a button is depressed or a field is changed, or what are we doing here exactly, etc?

Some quick examples with saving data on button press, Submit 1 cascades the if() statements and Submit 2 separates them out independantly.

a!localVariables(
  local!data1: null,
  local!data2: "test",
  local!value1,
  local!value2,
  
  a!buttonLayout(
    primaryButtons: {
      a!buttonWidget(
        label: "Submit 1",
        submit: true,
        saveInto: {
          if(
            isnull(local!data1),
            {}, /* do nothing */
            if(
              isnull(local!data2),
              {}, /* do nothing */
              a!save(local!value2,"test")
            )
          )
        }
      ),
      a!buttonWidget(
        label: "Submit 2",
        submit: true,
        saveInto: {
          if(
            isnull(local!data1),
            {}, /* do nothing */
            a!save(local!value1,"test")
          ),
          if(
            isnull(local!data2),
            {}, /* do nothing */
            a!save(local!value2,"test")
          )
        }
      )
    }
  )
)

One comment on the condition, the right functionality is inside the graphic in the code it is reversed, ignore that. if is null than result is null.
