Hi Shubham, Lets say you want to refresh the value for field "animalName", then your code would be like below,

a!radioButtonField(
                label: "Request Type",
                labelPosition: "ABOVE",
                choiceLabels: local!reqTypes,
                choiceValues: local!reqTypes,
                value: ri!ZMS_Requests.requesttype,
                saveInto: {
                ri!ZMS_Requests.requesttype,
                if(
                 ri!ZMS_Requests.requesttype="Equipment",
                  {
                   a!save(ri!ZMS_Requests.animalName,null)
                   },
                    {}
                  )
                }
                required: true,
                requiredMessage: "please select request type",
                choiceLayout: "COMPACT",
                choiceStyle: "STANDARD",
                validations: {}
              )

In the same way you can make null other fields as well when user changes value from "animal" to "Equipment"

Hi Shubham, you can make the rule inputs null in saveInto parameter based on raidio button selection. SOme thing like below,

saveInto:{

if(

ri!ZMS_Requests.requesttype="Equipment",

{

a!save(ri!input1,null),

a!save(ri!input2, null)

}

you can make any field null based on your requirements.

Hi Gopalk,

I want to refresh the values whenever I am changing the radio button.

Example:

If I selected "Medical" and selected a value from dropdown Animal Name, now I am switching to "Equipment", so whatever I entered the value from "Medical", that must be refreshed or set to null...

Could you please help me to achieve this.

Thank you in advance!

RE: Interface getting reload when I select a value from dropdown

Shubham Kumar — Fri, 25 Mar 2022 04:58:32 GMT

I resolved it. I was passing the null value at line no. 33

Before:

contents: rule!ZMS_MedicalRequestForm(ZMS_Requests: "")

Now:

contents: rule!ZMS_MedicalRequestForm(ZMS_Requests: ri!ZMS_Requests),

Dropdown code looks okay to me. is it possible to share code for the main request form? its difficult to debug the issue without seeing the code.

RE: Interface getting reload when I select a value from dropdown

Shubham Kumar — Fri, 25 Mar 2022 04:38:33 GMT

local!List: rule!ZMS_GetAnimalList(),


a!dropdownField(
                label: "Animal Name",
                labelPosition: "ABOVE",
                placeholder: "--- Select a Value ---",
                choiceLabels: index(local!List, "animalname"),
                choiceValues: index(local!List, "animalid"),

Shubham Kumar — Fri, 25 Mar 2022 04:34:09 GMT

Hi, thanks for your response.

I am saving the value for radio button, and for dropdown also.

RE: Interface getting reload when I select a value from dropdown

GopalK — Fri, 25 Mar 2022 02:45:32 GMT

Hi, can you check what are you saving in drop-down field? Are you making radio button selection null here? If you are saying ,after selecting from drop down you are going back to screenshot 3 then it means that selected radio button value is getting null.
