Hi Community,
I need some ideas of what is the best practice to solve a problem I just encounter.
I did an editable grid with my own edits to: https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/18.4/recipe_add_validations_to_an_inline_editable_grid.html
Main change is that I retrieve the data from the DB with an expression rule that can use filtering (unless null). The Editable Grid works fine until this point, meaning that when I call the DB, save the data in a load() variable I can remove & add data.
Then I needed to do a filtering on the editable grid. For that, I save the filtering - from dropdowns and search boxes - parameters in a load() variable. Inside the load, I have a with() - with the same content as I had on my load before - that call the DB with the filtering options. That works fine, as when the user enters a value for filtering it directly display the information I am looking for. The problem is that the with() breaks the remove/ add functionality, as it would be expected, as with() cannot be saved to store values.
I get this error:
Interface Definition: Expression evaluation error: An error occurred while executing a save: Expression evaluation error: The save target must be a load() variable, process variable, or node input (or a rule input passed one of those three), but instead was...
What would be the practice here? - Concatenate loads and with variables? - Make a button to summit the filtering options and remove some user-friendly part of the interface?
Thanks!
Manuel
