Hi All
Hope you are well. I have been battling with a multi select box in a form i am building. In terms of the interface, it works as it should. The problem i am having is with assigning the selections to the Attribute within the Entity.
Below is my Entity, the attribute to which the data in question belongs is "WhatSupplierStoryAreYouImpacting" which references a static entity containing the list of options.
In the form i have Dropdown Select which is bound to my list box containing the options:
I use the following on change Action:
I am telling it to pass the form data to a SupplierList Variable which (In Theory) should assign the selected values to my supplier list variable which is then used to populate the Entity on Submit. I Currently have the variable setup like this:
I have tried setting it as an input parameter, record data type instead of ID and various other things and various combinations but the result i get is it passes nothing to the table. I have ran the debugger and each time the value it passes to the SupplierList Variable is "0".
Do i need to run some sort of a loop? What is the correct way to setup my variable so that it can receive the options selected.
Id really appreciate some help with this as i have sweated over it for a couple of days now and just cant seem to figure it out.
Many Thanks
Mike
Hi Mike,
Are you able to share your .OML so I can help you better?
What is the SupplierList variable supposed to be/represent? Because the name would indicate that it is supposed to be a LIST of suppliers, but as I can see from your screenshot, your SupplierList variable holds an identifier. Is this what you want that variable to hold?
Hi Paulo.
This Particular List Contains 2 options.
As for the variable, I have tried many different ways of setting it up i.e. input parameter, record type, list type, using ID, Attribute Label etc. So far i have not found a winning combination. Ideally, id like it to pass the label. ID is fine for single select as i can convert this in my preparation but as it is a multi-select Label would be preferred.
Or is that where my problem is? The attribute selection is Label but the attribute will only accept The ID?
