EP Ok button behavior (modal window)

Hi, All.

At EP AX2012 I have modal window with “Save and close” buttons (at the left top corner (let’s say “TopOk”) and at the right bottom corner(let’s say “BottomOk”)) that are created with property “AutoGenerateEditButton” = true on the form.

The problem is the following: there are two different behavior of the form whether the user clicks TopOk or BottomOk (I expected that they will be working the same, but not). The BottomOk works correct (as expected). And when I press TopOk there are some validations that I couldn’t catch.

Validation could be caused by the following: I have added a AxMultiSection, and one of the AxSection is additional control which has it’s own Dataset (where some of the fields are “Mandatory”), but this AxSection become Edit(true) only if I mark the checkbox (see in red).

The problem is occurs only when the checkbox is unchecked.

So, does anybody experienced ever with similar problem? If no – maybe someone know the sequences of methods called by the TopOk button

Hi,

First, whenever possible, try to encapsulate the validation rules in method validateWrite (dataSet/dataSource or table)

Another possibility (in agreement with the description of your problem) is include the field as mandatory in the dataset/dataSource (image 1)

Another option is use the event ItemInserting (or ItemUpdating) to implement the validation rules:

Occurs before the new item has been inserted by the form control.

Example: HcmEPOpenJobApply (Image 2)

Create and Update behavior

"When the user clicks the "Save and close" button on the action pane for the User Control, the AxForm component will fire the appropriate events to create or update the data for the form component. If you are using additional components in the User Control, such as an AxGridView, you may have to explicitly invoke the events for these other components to have their create or update operations performed when the user clicks "Save and close".

For example, the following C# code is the event handler for the ItemUpdating event of an AxForm component named EPSalesTableEdit. In this code, the UpdateRow event for an AxGridView component is called explicitly to ensure that any changes on the current row of the grid are saved."

I Hope this Helps!
