Controlling Form Operation applicability if data not saved

gerber1

I am using Developer Edition, 5.1a/1441

I have a form with a Form Operation that displays a document (CREATE DOCUMENT) with data from the form. If I make edits and do not save first, it of course shows the previously saved data.

I would like to force a user to save before printing by either using a Process step to save the data or by disabling the button for the Form Operation if WAS CHANGED is true or GET_CHANGES() returns a non-empty result, but these are specifically prohibited in the Applicability expression on the Form Operation page.

Is there a standard way to do this? I'm afraid users will repeatedly make changes and then print outdated documents.

Thanks in advance,

Roy

You can maintain a special flag(attribute) in the object to indicate whether changes have been made and then check its value in the Applicability condition. You will need rules to maintain the value of this flag
