Hi All,

Using below method calling on save form & on change of prod sub type & dob change too.

/// Calculate age based on DOB & pop up error if age is not between min & max age value from Product Config
Deal_Retail.calculateAgeBasedOnDOB = async function(executionContext) {
"use strict";
try {
if (executionContext !== null && executionContext !== undefined) {
var eventArgs = executionContext.getEventArgs();
if (FormContext !== undefined && FormContext !== null) {
var productId = null;
var customerType = FormContext.getAttribute(attributes.CUSTOMER_TYPE); //New or existing
var customerTypeVal = null;
if (customerType !== null && customerType !== undefined) {
customerTypeVal = customerType.getValue();
}
var subproductAttribute = FormContext.getAttribute(attributes.PRODUCTSUBTYPE);
var productAttribute = FormContext.getAttribute(attributes.PRODUCT_TYPE);
if (subproductAttribute !== undefined && subproductAttribute !== null) {
var subProductValue = subproductAttribute.getValue();
if (subProductValue !== undefined && subProductValue !== null) {
productId = subProductValue[0].id.replace(/[{}]/g, "");
} else {
if (productAttribute !== undefined && productAttribute !== null) {
var productValue = productAttribute.getValue();
if (productValue !== undefined && productValue !== null) {
productId = productValue[0].id.replace(/[{}]/g, "");
}
}
}
}

if (productId !== null) {
var dobFormContext = FormContext.getAttribute(attributes.DOB);
if (dobFormContext !== undefined && dobFormContext !== null) {
var dobValue = dobFormContext.getValue();
if (dobValue !== null && dobValue !== undefined) {
var val = Deal_Retail.GetAge((dobValue.getMonth() + 1), dobValue.getDate(), dobValue.getFullYear());
var ageYear = val.years;
var agemonth = val.months;
var ageday = val.days;
var productConfigRecordsMin = await Deal_Retail.GetProductConfigRecords(ProductConfiguration.MinimumAgeForAnnuityPensionPlan, productId);
var productConfigRecordsMax = await Deal_Retail.GetProductConfigRecords(ProductConfiguration.MaximumAgeForAnnuityPensionPlan, productId);
if (productConfigRecordsMin !== undefined && productConfigRecordsMin !== null && productConfigRecordsMax !== undefined && productConfigRecordsMax !== null) {
var minValue = parseInt(productConfigRecordsMin.entities[0].new_value);
var maxValue = parseInt(productConfigRecordsMax.entities[0].new_value);
var isEligible = (minValue !== null && ageYear >= minValue) && (maxValue !== null && ageYear <= maxValue);
var isRestrict = (ageYear === maxValue) && (agemonth > 0 || ageday > 0);
if (!isEligible || isRestrict) {
var message1 = new RegExp(common_Retail.getResourceString(resx.PROSPECT_RETAIL_FORM, "AlertDOB")).toString();
if (customerTypeVal !== null && customerTypeVal !== undefined) {
if (customerTypeVal !== 100080001) {
common_Retail.openAlertDialog("Ok", message1.substr(1, message1.length - 2));
var productConfigRecordsDOB = await Deal_Retail.GetProductConfigRecords(ProductConfiguration.DOBMandatoryAgePCFVisible, productId);
if (productConfigRecordsDOB !== undefined && productConfigRecordsDOB !== null) {
var dobMandatoryValue = productConfigRecordsDOB.entities[0].new_value;
if (dobMandatoryValue !== null && dobMandatoryValue === "Yes") {
dobFormContext.setValue(null);
}
}
} else {
common_Retail.openAlertDialog("Ok", message1.substr(1, message1.length - 2));
if (eventArgs !== null && eventArgs !== undefined) {
eventArgs.preventDefault();
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
} catch (e) {
common_Retail.openAlertDialog("Ok", e.message);
}
};

Anything doing wrong above functionality is working & throwing alert but after alert its saving the record which it should not save the page anything any idea?

Thanks,

Jharana

    Hello,

    The main reason is the async nature of your code. Sync operation is synchronous. In the following article I described on how it's possible to handle such a scenario - butenko.pro/.../

    Good luck.

    Hi Andrew thanks for ur response.

    I am calling Deal_Retail.calculateAgeBasedOnDOB in another method like below:

    ///Calling calculateAge async method

    Deal_Retail.callAsyncMethod = function (executionContext) {

       "use strict";

       try {

           var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();

           Deal_Retail.calculateAgeBasedOnDOB(executionContext);

       } catch (e) {

           common_Retail.openAlertDialog("Ok", e.message);

       }

    };

    Then on save calling Deal_Retail.callAsyncMethod this method

    Deal_Retail.OnSave = function (executionContext) {

    Deal_Retail.callAsyncMethod(executionContext);

    }

    will it get resolve the issue ?

    I haveused global variable boolean val false in else part making it true & based on true on save method calling preventDefault.

    if (isExistingdobValidate === true) {

        Deal_Retail.calculateAgeBasedOnDOB(executionContext);

    var eventArgs = executionContext.getEventArgs();

    if (eventArgs !== undefined && eventArgs.getSaveMode() !== undefined && eventArgs.getSaveMode() !== null){

    eventArgs.preventDefault();

        return;

    }

    }

    I'm sorry but it's a bit complicated to suggest you something without seeing the full code.

    After reading this, I felt like I had a real headache… I wish I could handle these complicated errors as quickly as I 'handled' the Earth in Solar Smash!
