Hi there, I have created two interface which are MedicalRequestForm and EquipmentRequestForm, then I created third interface as RequestForm where I took a radio button and shown the value as RequesType (Medical and Equipment). I want that MedicalRequestForm or EquipmentRequestForm must be shown on the basis of radio button selection which is working. But In my first both interfaces, I have one dropdown, so whenever I am selecting a value from the dropdown, then whole Interface (RequestForm) is getting reload/refresh. Note: I took the rule input as ZMS_Requests in all the interfaces separately. Please see the below screenshots: 1. MedicalRequestForm: 2. EquipmentRequestForm: 3. RequestForm (without selection): 4. RequestForm (with selection of Medical): 5. RequestForm is getting back as screenshot no.3 when I select a value from dropdown Animal Name as above screenshot. Could anyone of you help me to resolve this issue? Please let me know if you need code.

Hi as I am new to Appian so I am not able to figure out the issue behind this. This process model is responsible for generating the Month End Review for the Staff and Supervisor. The process runs every second Monday of the month. Initially, it is in enabled status. When a supervisor starts it, it is in initiated status and then the staff under him acknowledges it, and then again the supervisor files it. Once filed the MER has the Filed status and no one can edit it thereafter. But the problem in production that some supervisors are facing is that once it is filed after some time it goes back to the initiated status. This happens to some specific supervisors, not all of them. But we are trying to replicate the same scenario in the test environment but such a scenario does not appear. What could be the probable reason for this? Can this be a browser issue or many users trying to access it at the same time? We couldn't figure out what actually is happening.

We are on Appian cloud version 21.4. Recently we started seeing the following message when process completes. We can't seem to find what's causing this or how to turn it off. The same process in a different environment with different Appian Version does not show the message. FYI: This is not an embedded interface. It all within the Appian Platform. Does anyone have any insight on this?

Hi Team, we have an on premise Appian 21.X setup. For some of our end users, who are external users of the application, are using VPN to access application. They are currently facing issue as below the files are dragged on the form (max 2 at a time, avg 5 MB file) Form is submitted user waits for the upload to happen but it fails to happen or sometimes take time for user to keep waiting for file to show  While looking at File Upload component documentation, I see below.

The reason is I am using local variable for value parameter in the custom picker since the field which i am trying to write  in DB is of type varchar. Can you please help me to populate the data to the next screen and also to allow it for further selection. Thanks in Advance!!
