I have a user input task with 3 reminders being sent by escalations. The input task is stored in our database and indicates if it was completed and the reminder dates (basically writing a near empty object). I'm trying to figure out how to move passed the input task after the last escalation and still write the record before ending the process. I've found older posts where users discussed the "send message request" item within the escalation, but they would do that to kill their entire process. I still need my process to complete. An alternative approach I'm testing out is splitting the flow with an AND gateway: Path 1 has the user input task and updates pv!taskComplete once done Path 2 loops itself with an XOR for each reminder count (pv!counter) If pv!taskComplete = true, Path 2 resolves to an end node and everything is fine. If pv!taskComplete = false, but pv!counter = 4, Path 2 also resolves to an end node.

Hi all, I am still confused in the pricing and plans offered by Appian. From the website, under APPLICATION plan, there's a price per user (Standard, Infrequent, and External Input User). Also, there are plans for PLATFORM and UNLIMITED. I am not quite sure if we will fall under Standard user. In our use case, we are a Service Provider/ Software Developers. You may refer to my use case below: As a software developer, we are looking into using Appian as a low-code platform where we can create our software/ applications. These created applications are being sold to our customers with different volume of end-users who will use our software/ application. Example the application is a Human Resource Information System with end-users such as the HR people, all company's employees, and on-boarding external applicants. My question right now is that, how's the Pricing in Appian? 1. We, as the provider with 20-30 developers, how much should we pay if we subscribe

We have Appian 17.3 and 21.1 environments - I am using a!pickerFieldUsersAndGroups() field inside editable grid to allow users to pick either a user or a group. No issue when picking a user, but when I pick any group then I got the following error "Error in a!forEach() expression during iteration 1: Expression evaluation error at function a!pickerFieldUsersAndGroups [line 100]: A user and group picker component [label=“Primary Assignee”] has an invalid value for “value”. All users and groups must be valid and visible to the viewer."   When I use a!pickerFieldUsersAndGroups() outside of the editable grid, picking a user or a group works with no issue. Also, when using a!pickerFieldGroups() or a!pickerFieldUsers() inside editable grid works just fine. Appreciate any help on this issue.

It would be nice it it would be possible to allow a link to be configured inside a button. Currently a button only has a saveInto. If you want to launch a worklfow form a button you are limited to using a!startProcess(). This method only allows for headless processes to be launched.If you want to launch a process with a process startform, you need to used the  a!startProcessLink(), but there is no way to configure this when using a button. Example usecase: Imagine you have a custom grid of objects.You want the users to be able to select one or more objects. Based on the selection you will show the possible actions to use above the grid. A nice way to display these actions is by using buttons. If one of these actions involves a process with a process start form, there is no way to configure this using a button. You can however just just a link, but it wil nog look as clean.

Dear community, I have a start process web api, the process is updating the metadata table. My facing issue is that API response success even when write to data store entity error. The expected result should be when process executing error, we can expose the process instance error in web api response body. Therefore, how can I get the process instance error? then I can save it into process variable, and in the api, we can get it through ProcessInfo. Thanks in advance for your answers.

Good afternoon,  We are consuming an external process that has a start timer configured as follows: The rule! Delay has this code if(   totime(now()) < cons!START_TIME,   datetime(     year(today()),     month(today()),     day(today()),     hour(cons!START_TIME),     minute(cons!START_TIME)   ),   datetime(     year(today()+1),     month(today()+1),     day(today()+1),     hour(cons!START_TIME),     minute(cons!START_TIME)   ) ) The value of the constant is: The configuration of the user who starts the process is And the process has the overwrite option checked The problem we are having is that the process is running at 2:00 AM instead of 1:00 AM as we have in the configuration. Can you think of why this could be happening? A greeting and thanks in advance

Hi, can anyone help me with this error please An error occurred while trying to write to the entity "SHA_listing" [id=5e13a319-1194-43c0-8694-7083cec21cb0@26128, type=SHA_listing (id=6198)] (data store: SHA Tables and Views). Details: org.hibernate.PropertyValueException:

I am trying to build a simple application which allows users to log hours worked. In the summary page, there is a table of logged shifts, and the ID field has a link to a page with details about the shift with the particular ID. I have an Expression Rule called TST_getTimesheetSubmissions which returns an entity with specified a!queryFilter( field: "id", operator: "=" Currently, in my summary view, I have the following configuration: rule!TST_TimesheetSubission( TST_timesheetLog: rule!TST_getTimesheetSubmissions(rv!identifier).data[1], cancel: null, readOnly: true ) The page loads without any error. However, the hyperlink from each ID redirects to the same entity with ID=1. Can someone help me fetch the appropriate row of data from the table? Thank you!

I've been following a tutorial to build a simple system which allows users to record their work hours and date. When I try to edit record type using rf and rp, I receive an error message "Improper scoped variable". For example, I try to edit the "summary" view using the rules defined in an Expression Rule: rule!TST_TimesheetSubission(rule!TST_getTimesheetSubmissions(rp!id).data[1],null,true) I receive an error because I have rp!id, and  and when I try to edit the List so that the ID of each row becomes a hyperlink to an individual page about the shift logged, I have: - Label: rf!id - Record Type: rp!type - Identifier: rp!id the above three get an error, so when I access the Site, I receive an error "The Requested Record Type Is Not Available". Before the edit, it is a Text field and uses fv. How do I access rf and rp, or alternatively, how do I use the rp equivalent with fv to fully display the page? I'm new to Appian and the forum, if I
