Hi all,

I have a question about how to build two forms like hcmworker and hcmworkerlistpage;

When double click a record in form hcmworkerlistpage, the hcmworker detail form with corresponding record will show, and I can get the next or previous record by the arrow button in the bottom of the form.

I tried to build two similar forms, but I do not know how to set the "detail form" so that it will display the record I just clicked in the "listpage".

To get the correct record pool, I used ...query().addRange... in the ""detail form" init method. Now I detail question is:

After I double clicked the "listpage", I get the correct pool of record in the "detail form" and the => and <= is worked but the current display is always the first record of the pool. I want to get the record i just clicked in "listpage". It should be the same as hcmworker. How can I do that? Thank you very much!

My current situation is

In form gird, I double click the second record, 548, then as I have set a menuitembuuton, a new form with a record will display. But the displayed record is always the first one not the exact person I double click in the former form. How can I get the record in the second form according to the employee I selected in the first form, please? Besides, I also need to use the blue => and <= button at the bottom of the second form so that I can choose back and forth in the personnel pool. Thank you!

Hi Samuel

The new forms refer to the same tables?

If not, you have to handle the correct relation, so on the child table create the relation with the parent table.

Finally, on the MenuItem button of the parent form, set the DataSource Property to the parent table.

Hi Demis,

Thank you for your apply. The two forms' datasource is the same table. And in menuitembutton DataSource property, I have set to the correct table. As I have built some filter in the parent form, I also did the same in the init() method in the child form. But the child form is always show the first record in my pool...

Hello Samuel,

You can get the detail form by double click on list page by doing following on list page :

list page >design>Grid>Grid properties>Default Action = Your Details Form.

Try this once , i hope it will help you.

thanks.

Hi Visvash,

Thank you! I used the method as you said, but my problem is that the record I get in the second form is not the record I select in the first form. They are not match.

The record passed in to your child form probably has the reference in element.args().record(), please verify.

If yes, then you just have to add a dynalink in the formdatasource.init() after the super() call.

There is a code snipper here, in which they link the sales order header to production orders dynamically, you only need the relevant part:

Hi Vilmos,

Thanks for your reply. After I followed your solution, I still found I cannot use the blue <= and => button to choose record back and forth in the second form? Do you have any suggestion?

Check your filters (control+f3), or right click - personalize - query, to understand if you have 1 or more records returned on the child form. Arrows only work if you have more than 1 records. Alternatively add a grid to the form to see how many you have exactly. Your filtering must be too narrow.
