This will work if(
rule!APN_isEmpty(ri!year),
a!save(ri!year,local!selectedCycleYear),
null
),

Thanks for your inputs n follow up.

Please find below .

Work Around-1:

On click of Submit Button just check the below condition.

if(
rule!APN_isEmpty(ri!year),
a!save(ri!year,local!selectedCycleYear),
null
),

Work Around-2:

Pass ri!year value from Process Model it self[Before Attended node , Take the Current year], In this case no need to write extra code SAIL level.

Thanks!!

I am trying to pass default selected value of drop down to rule input variable and further passing that variable to Process Modal. That ri!Variable is getting save on event basis in drop down. So if i don't change anything in drop down and click on submit button that there would be nothing save in the ri!Variable. That's why ri!year is not displaying anything by default. But default selectedCycleYear value should be also save to this variable which is the problem here.

Plz find updated code.

load(

local!data: {
{
id: 1,
name: "user1",
year: 2016
},
{
id: 2,
name: "user2",
year: 2017
}
},
/*local!selectedYear: year(
today()
),*/
local!selectedCycleYear: year(
today()
),
local!dataSubset: todatasubset(
local!data,
a!pagingInfo(
startIndex: 1,
batchSize: - 1,
sort: a!sortInfo(
field: "year",
ascending: false
)
)
),
local!year: if(
rule!APN_isBlank(
local!data
),
{
local!selectedCycleYear
},
rule!APN_distinct(
append(
tointeger(
index(
local!dataSubset.data,
"year",
null
),
local!selectedCycleYear
)
)
)
),
a!formLayout(
contents: {
a!dropdownField(
label: "Year",
labelPosition: "ABOVE",
/*placeholderLabel: "--Select a Year-- ",*/
choiceLabels: local!Year,
choiceValues: local!Year,
value: local!selectedCycleYear,
saveInto: {
local!selectedCycleYear,
a!save(ri!year,local!selectedCycleYear)
}
),
a!textField(label:"Debug local!selectedCycleYear",value:ri!year,readOnly: true())
}
)
)

Have a look its not able to assign value in rule input variable. Sorry i forgot to add this in previous chat. I was about to ask this only. By mistake add wrong variable name.

Can you have look now.

load(
  
  local!data: {
    {
      id: 1,
      name: "user1",
      year: 2016
    },
    {
      id: 2,
      name: "user2",
      year: 2017
    }
  },
  /*local!selectedYear: year(
    today()
  ),*/
  local!selectedCycleYear: year(
    today()
  ),
  local!dataSubset: todatasubset(
    local!data,
    a!pagingInfo(
      startIndex: 1,
      batchSize: - 1,
      sort: a!sortInfo(
        field: "year",
        ascending: false
      )
    )
  ),
  local!year: if(
    rule!APN_isBlank(
      local!data
    ),
    {
      local!selectedCycleYear
    },
    rule!APN_distinct(
      append(
        tointeger(
          index(
            local!dataSubset.data,
            "year",
            null
          ),
          local!selectedCycleYear
        )
      )
    )
  ),
  a!formLayout(
    contents: {
      a!dropdownField(
        label: "Year",
        labelPosition: "ABOVE",
        /*placeholderLabel: "--Select a Year-- ",*/
        choiceLabels: local!Year,
        choiceValues: local!Year,
        value: local!selectedCycleYear,
        saveInto: {
          local!selectedCycleYear
        }
      ),
      a!textField(label:"Debug local!selectedCycleYear",value:local!selectedCycleYear,readOnly: true())
    }
  )
)

What is Diff b/w local!selectedYearand local!selectedCycleYear , If above code is fine Just remove unnecessary local variables

        }
      ),
      a!textField(local!selectedCycleYear)
    }
  )
)

I got one issue in this code. local!selectedCycleYear value is not saving for 2018 for rest year it is getting save.
Plz add this a!textField(local!selectedCycleYear) n you will see result.

2,
3,
4,
5,
6,
7,
8,
9,
10

sauravk — Thu, 23 Aug 2018 09:16:05 GMT

can you share one liner code or modify this code as per your approach if possible

RE: Dropdown null value issue

Shanmukha — Thu, 23 Aug 2018 09:13:29 GMT

Hi Saurav,

local!Year is list of years which contain current year (which you wan to be selected when form is loaded) right? If yes then did you try assigning the local!selectedYear=current year (which you wan to be selected when form is loaded) ?

RE: Dropdown null value issue

sauravk — Thu, 23 Aug 2018 09:03:03 GMT

I tried to put null check also before this dropdown but after that its not showing this dropdown in case of local!selectedCycleYear null check and when i tried with local!year null than nothing is getting impact same error is coming.
