Add Row Link Working when Testing Interface but not in Record List Action

Question

Hi, 
 I have several editable grids in my interface with an add row link. When I'm testing the interface in the rule editor, the link works just fine for all grids, but when I try to create a new record using the record list action, clicking the link does not do anything. 
 The grids are implemented as follows: 
 a!gridLayout( label: "Wachstumstreiber und Schl&uuml;sselerfolgsfaktoren", labelPosition: "ABOVE", emptyGridMessage: "Keine Wachstumstreiber angegeben", headerCells: { a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "Wachstumstreiber"), a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "Schl&uuml;sselerfolgsfaktoren"), if( local!readOnly, {}, { a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "") } ) }, columnConfigs: { a!gridLayoutColumnConfig(weight: 1), a!gridLayoutColumnConfig(weight: 1), if( local!readOnly, {}, { a!gridLayoutColumnConfig(width: "ICON") } ) }, rows: a!forEach( items: ri!konzeptRecord['recordType!{e6823cb0-0826-4ba1-a489-d1b628fb0037}PEP Konzept.relationships.{6913d9a7-ad1d-43c7-b38b-1b504c3122bb}wachstumstreiber'], expression: a!localVariables( a!gridRowLayout( id: fv!index, contents: { a!textField( label: "Treiberbeschreibung" & fv!index, value: fv!item['recordType!{c776f554-31f3-4e62-81e1-6aa317e7b18e}PEP Wachstumstreiber.fields.{c8ed9449-36ad-441b-814c-07401ead9ecc}bezeichnung'], saveInto: { fv!item['recordType!{c776f554-31f3-4e62-81e1-6aa317e7b18e}PEP Wachstumstreiber.fields.{c8ed9449-36ad-441b-814c-07401ead9ecc}bezeichnung'], a!save( fv!item['recordType!{c776f554-31f3-4e62-81e1-6aa317e7b18e}PEP Wachstumstreiber.fields.{69de833f-2a31-4249-853e-ae10a9ad327e}modifiedOn'], now() ), a!save( fv!item['recordType!{c776f554-31f3-4e62-81e1-6aa317e7b18e}PEP Wachstumstreiber.fields.{15d5c187-0738-4597-9214-205de10141f9}modifiedBy'], local!user ) }, readOnly: local!readOnly,

 } ) ), shadeAlternateRows: true, 
 ), 
 
 The rule input ri!konzeptRecord, into which the rows are meant to be saved, is passed down using the following call in the parent interface being used for the record list action: 
 rule!PEP_KonzeptMarktanalyse( konzeptRecord: ri!konzeptRecord, readOnly: ri!readOnly ), 
 
 I'd be happy for any pointers, as I find the inconsistent behavior between rule editor and actual call of the record list action very confusing.

 In that case it would need to be directly mapped to a parameter PV, instead of an ACP (since ACP's don't exist in start nodes). But otherwise the same issue.

Thank you! Although it wasn't exactly the solution, this gave me the idea to add a separate user input task node for the nested interface containing the interface for the Konzept record type, pulling it out from its own parent. This did the trick for me in this case!

Traditionally if something modifies a Rule Input variable successfully in the Interface Editor but it seemingly fails to work when in an actual task, it means your task configuration probably isn't mapping the rule input to an ACP properly. Can you show us a screenshot of your task configuration where the interface inputs are set?

bernhar1k143337 said: what does ACP stand for 
 Activity Class Parameter . In your User Input Task it will be one of the variables listed in "Inputs", and then in your Form configuration, needs to be mapped directly to a Rule Input. 
 
 If a Rule Input value is left blank in the Form configuration, then any "save into" action performed on it (while viewing from an active task) will not actually get saved anywhere, and will seem to "automatically undo" from the standpoint of the task's active user.
