Symptoms

Adding multiple rows to an inline editable grid without adding data before each new row results in overwriting data due to indexing issues. Any new data will repeatedly write over the data from the first row of the block of newly added rows. This behavior does not persist if adding data to each row before creating a new row.

Cause

This issue has been reported to the Appian Product Team. The reference number for this issue is AN-97061.

Workaround

Make the Add Row link visible only if all rows have a value. Here is some sample SAIL code to modify for one method to achieve this functionality:

addRowlink: if(and(a!forEach(items:local!myRows, expression: not(fv!item = ""))),
              a!dynamicLink(
              ....
              ),
              null)

Alternatively, change the value and saveInto parameters of the field referenced in a!gridRowLayout to be ri!data[fv!index].cdtField:

a!gridRowLayout(
  contents: {
    a!textField(
      required: true,
      value: ri!data[fv!index].cdtField,
      saveInto: ri!data[fv!index].cdtField
    )
  }
)

Revision 2 posted to Appian Knowledge Base by Emily Egan on 2/23/2018 5:06:00 PM

Symptoms

Adding multiple rows to an inline editable grid and then returning to the new rows to add data causes duplicate identifiers to be created. This causes the data entered in these rows to repeatedly write over the value.
