Confirmation Page

Certified Senior Developer

Hi All,

What would you all recommend for implementing a confirmation page after a form is submitted ? another user form ? The only concern I have is that once my user submits the form is a subprocess creating multiple instances (as we need). So basically for the confirmation page we need something along the lines this # of items were created in the system, even better if we can give the ids of the created items.

Any suggestions for a good design implementation?

Thanks in advance

    This use case is incredibly common. If you have access to a customer's support portal, when you submit an Appian Support ticket, you'll encounter this exact use case. The problem is - even with extremely generous exception timeouts, the user will eventually encounter a pink box in Appian if they don't close the tab. (Error: Task has already been submitted, or something similar). This has been a 'thing' on every single Appian project I've been a part of.

    There is a feature enhancement request floating around for a "process redirect to site page". The idea is that Appian developers can encode into a process model "at this point in the activity chain, the user should be redirected to XYZ site page rather than their 'last' Appian page". If you think such a feature would be useful, you'll have to find a way to submit an Appian Support case to request the enhancement as well.
