I have designed a process for use on the main Appian mobile app that is offline enabled. It is a survey program that a user uses to input certain pieces of information about various pieces of equipment in a given plant. I currently have the built-in "Save and Close" button enabled to allow the user to save the work they've done so far, in case the app crashes. Unfortunately, this button kicks them out of the task and back to the main Tasks screen. I was prepared to accept this inconvenience, but in recent testing I have found that every time I "Save and Close" the task takes longer and longer to load. After just 6 saves, the form was taking around 7 minutes to load, after the 7th save it took 15 minutes, and after the 8th save it took over 30 minutes. The load time appears to be doubling (approximately) with every save. While the task is loaded, the interface is fast and responsive with no loading issues. Does anyone have any idea why this would be happening and

I have a Record Action generated with the automatic feature by Appian that allows me to add new records to the record type, the CREATE action. How can I customize it so I can add more items before saving the form? This is an example of what I want: And this is what I have, so right now I have to add items one by one: EDIT: I know that the one I've seen is done with an editable Grid and Allowing the "Add Row Link" feature, but I would prefer not to have it in a Grid, is that possible? Thank you so much!

Hello Everyone! I have a Record with Shops, and then also a Record with products. In my Shops grid I have an actions that  allows me to add a Product to that specific Shop. I should have the Shop ID as a read only, since it doenst have to be changed, We should be able to fill in only the rest of the fields with the product details. When I do that, it doesn't store the Shop ID into my product information. it only stores the value if it's not a read only field AND if i edit the value.So fore example if I keep the ID as 17, it doesn't work, but iI type one more number and turn it into 171, it stores it. As u can see in the picture, the rest of the fields get saved, so that confuses me even more: Any idea why this happends and how could I solve it? This is how my interface looks like: Thank you so much for your time!

For example if we have two field : first name and last name . Now i want to edit it with new name , so we will have one link to edit it.

Hello everyone! So when I create a new product It has the value "New" as default in the Status field. After that it goes throw a Approval Task where the Supervisor has to decide if it is ACCEPTED or REJECTED. Then it should update the Status field Changing its value from "New" to "Accepted" or "Rejected". Instead of that it duplicates the item: the old item stays with the value "New" and the new item has the value "Accepted" or "Rejected". How can i fix that? Is it wrong to use the a!save as i show in the image? Should I be using a!update? I tried but i don't know how to use it propperly, I thought that maybe it is not right to use a!update. Or is it wrong configurated in the Data Tab in the Task Configuration: Or is it somehing wrong in the Data Tab in the Write to Data base Configuration: I am new to Appian and I've been struggling with this for many hours. Thank you so much!

Hello community, I have an interface with tabs as a task.When the task first loads its default is tab 1, witch is fine.The third tab has a link to start another process with a task, once that task finishes the interface refreshes and returns to original interface with default tab 1 (set in the pv as initial value).I would like the tab to be 3 (use save in the interface to save the value to the ruleinput), and have a rule input to set the tab number. But the resume task smartservice (I cant find any documentation regarding this service) has no task input to set the tabnr via the rule-input.Can I update the pv with the tabnumber value via the other process by process id? Or can the the pv with the tabnumber be updated when another tab is pressed but before the form is submitted? Kind regards, Erik

Hello community, Can you help me with configuring start process link so that it refreshes the original interface instead of "ending" in the news tab of tempo? Once the link is clicked the process that is configured with chaining runs and shows the task, the task just shows information, the task is assigned to initiator.If the task is submitted, the process does end, but I cant see the original interface refresh when I test it. If I run the test again, the interface shows the information that was previously shown on screen in the task and saved to DB. Behavior is fine except the reload original interface part. Kind Regards, Erik

When i create user it takes long time to send email from 15 minutes up to hours.

Hello Appian community, I have found quite interesting observation related “native” email notification for “User Input Task”. For my test I have used 3 users with different membership -> but what was common is that all users are member of “PK_Users” group and user “Pavol Kuka” and “Pavol Kuka admin” are members of “PK_Users_admins” group.   I have observed link to task created by APPIAN is somehow related to current memberships. Because for user “Pavol Kuka Test” (user is no member of another application groups) I have received link:  https://domain/suite/tempo/tasks/task/k3bprjxktklo2dtpzg (Link works) For user “Pavol Kuka Admin” (this user has several memberships to other groups, one of them is CAST group – but this membership is not related to my test) I received: https://domain/suite/sites/cast/page/all-cpp/task/k3bprjxktklo2dtpzg?source=notif (Link works)   For
