No. But the process is triggered and completed without any errors when i check the instances.

Did you try to put the a!save following the a!startProcess() into the onSuccess parameter of a!startProces()?

Actually the a!save(ri!lockScreenDetails, type!SK_case()) is added in the expression rule(SK_UpdateCaseData). Actually the problem is not with the expression rule it is with the start process. I can remove the SK_UpdateCaseData but the issue still exist with the code. I feel like since the process is making integration calls it might be the reason but not completely sure

The way you use this expression seems weird. I would expect something like:

saveInto: {
ri!buttonAction,
a!save(
  target: ri!lockScreenDetails,
  value: rule!SK_UpdateCaseData(
    caseDataControls: ri!lockScreenDetails
  )
),
a!startProcess(

It is updating the status, updatedBy, updatedDate and some other fields inside the CDT. Actually if i comment only the startprocess function and keep rest all other logic as it is the code works fine.

What is this SK_UpdateCaseData expression doing?

If i comment the startprocess function inside the button saveInto then the value is updating to null as per the code.

I am facing the issue whenever the a!startprocess function is added inside the button saveInto.

Before clicking on the button the value is "NEXT" and it is still holding the same value "NEXT" after clicking on the button as well. The value is not updating to "SUBMIT" or null.

Hi Stefan,

Please find the below sample code. Actually the issue is happening whenever is interface is called from top parent rule.

Actually in the start process we are passing the document data to some external system.

But when the start process is using inside the button save Into then the button value (ri!buttonAction) is not getting updated but whenever i try to test the same interface by commenting the start process function the button saveInto are updating properly

Please let me know if any other extra information is required

a!buttonWidget(
label: "SUBMIT",
value: "SUBMIT",
saveInto: {
ri!buttonAction,
rule!SK_UpdateCaseData(
caseDataControls: ri!lockScreenDetails
),
a!startProcess(
processModel: cons!SK_PM_LOCK_SCREEN_DETAILS,
processParameters: {
lockScreenDetails: ri!lockScreenDetails,
lockScreenId: ri!lockScreenId
}
),
a!save(
target: {
ri!buttonAction,
ri!lockScreenDetails,
ri!lockScreenId
},
value: null
)

}
)

Can you share your code?

Can you clarify what you mean by this?

What are you expecting these variables to do, and what are you using to judge whether they're updating?
