Hi All I have encountered a very strange behaviour where I create an interface in an a!foreach. When using the two pieces of code it displays the interface for each of the parents but as soon as i edit one it deletes any subsequent parents and removes the interface: CODE1: With strange behaviour a!forEach( items: ri!tempBom, expression: a!sectionLayout( contents: rule!PDP_uiRecipeAndPackagingDecisionQuestions( tempBOM: fv!item, newProductRequired: true, packagingTempComponents: ri!packagingTempComponents, blendTempComponents: ri!packagingTempComponents, ), showWhen: local!activeStep = 2 + fv!index )) If I change the input name on the child to the just 'BOM', and change it at the parent, it all works perfectly CODE1: With correct behaviour a!forEach( items: ri!tempBom, expression: a!sectionLayout( contents: rule!PDP_uiRecipeAndPackagingDecisionQuestions( BOM: fv!item, newProductRequired: true, packagingTempComponents: ri!packagingTempComponents, blendTempComponents: ri!packagin

How to achieve this functionality ? If user's manager band is between 0 to 3 then consider manager details of that user,if user manager is more than 3 then manager's manager(next linemanager) band should be checked and if it is not between 0 to 3 then again check for next further line manager. This process should be repeated until we get the any of the manager band as between 0,1,2,3.

Hi All, I am using a!Submitlink function to show with an edit icon. When the user clicked on the icon I am setting the value to true for that submit link variable. Whi I am testing that in the Interface rule it is working as expected. But, when I am executing the same on the sites the value is not saving. Please see the code and screenshots attached below. a!richTextIcon( icon: "EDIT", caption: "edit", link: a!submitLink( value: true(), saveInto: a!save(ri!Edit, true())), size: "MEDIUM" ) On Interface Rule after clicking on edit symbol: On sites after clicking on edit symbol:

[View:/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/13/ri_2D00_label.mp4:340:240] Hi, Are there reserved keywords when naming rule inputs in interfaces?, I'm saying this because I have a rule input called "label", and when I enter a value in the textfield, the value is replaced by the label of the component. 

Something that's bothering is I can't make my interfaces take up the whole width of the screen. I have se the setting on the site to be "Full" but the interfaces still show empty spaces on left and right sides. One of the screenshots on this reference appears to suggest that you can make an interface take up the whole width. https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/21.1/ux_page_width.html The only thing that can take up the whole width is a billboard layout inside a header content layout, but nothing else. Any suggestions?

Hello,  I have a question about the timer functionality.  What I need is a recurring process automatically to execute. Each Month. Each day 30 of each each month. or Each last work day in the month. Configured the way it is in the screenshot is not working.  Two questions occurs here. If I don't need the Delay option how this should be configured ? In this case all I need is the process to execute at certain time. Second is Selecting Time recurrence will that guarantees that the process will automatically execute , and it will repeat each month on day 30 or each last work day of the current month ? Thank you.

I have a checklist and selected items will be saved into arrayA. The user can check up to 4 items on the checklist. The user also has the option to provide items they don't find in arrayA through input fields. The entered items will be saved into arrayB. Their total sum can be no more than 4. To help with dynamically displaying the input fields, arrayB is initiated with 4 null values. A forEach is used to render the boxes based on the availability of items remaining. Problem: The two arrays will be merged down the line, and I would like to clear the values in arrayB that are not intended to be used. Example: If there are 2 checked items and 2 typed items, then I end up selecting all 4 checkboxes, the input boxes are no longer present as intended. However, the values were still saved in arrayB. Is there a convenient way to clear the values as soon as the input box disappears? I don't believe there's an "i

First off, we are aware that this interface needs to be modernized and we have created a ticket to do so. In the meantime, we need to remediate the error for our users until the interface is modernized.  Background:       We have a report that groups can pull to see their vanpool vehicle switch. What is happening, is if 2 switches (get a different vehicle) are completed for a given vanpool within the same month, an error is thrown on the interface.In the example, the vehicle was switched out for a different one twice in the same month. See code below. Error Evaluating UI Expression Expression evaluation error [evaluation ID = APN6ZIQL] in rule 'fma_switchreportdashboard' at function a!gridField_19r1 [line 159]: A grid component [label=“”] has an invalid value for “totalCount”. “totalCount” must not be null or less than the number of items in any of the “data” arrays, but “totalCount” was

I am new to Appian and am looking for sample code snippets to add values across rows and columns. I have added two more columns called salary and bonus and want to have a third column that shows the total of salary and bonus. At the same time, I only want a row that can keep track of running sum of all the salary, bonus and total columns.  Attached is the sample code that shows the three new columns. https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/17.3/recipe_add_edit_and_remove_data_in_an_inline_editable_grid.html see attachment/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/11/Sample-SAIL-Add-Rows-Columns.txt Thanks
