Re: New Parent Object issues with Children

I was pretty upset when I read the previous post. I felt the tone wasn't necessary, I'm just trying to learn a system that I'm finding to be pretty frustrating at times. There seems to be too many questions that go unanswered around here and trying to delve into 3 different manuals all pointing to e...

Re: Possible Bug - Parent/Child Object Issues

Yeah that's a workaround. But then it potentially causes other problems. The ability to set required fields becomes complicated.

New Parent Object issues with Children

The thread is listed here, if you want to move it over to this forum, feel free: http://www.awareim.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=9254 There are at least two issues that I currently see when trying to add children to a new Parent Object created via ENTER NEW. There's one other one that I'm not sure ...

Re: Possible Bug - Parent/Child Object Issues

Tom this is excellent, it took me a bit to find how it was setup, but I've learned a lot in just 5 minutes and for that I thank you! And furthermore, this actually proves that there's something amiss with how AwareIM handles New Objects. It works perfectly with already stored objects (Edit User). Ho...

Re: Possible Bug - Parent/Child Object Issues

Thanks Bruce, I'll give it a go, but I don't think that's the problem. The COUNT is off and as long as that is the issue I'm not able to prevent the button from showing/not showing. That being said, how would you enable/disable the add children feature? I'm digging in the documentation and looking a...

Re: Possible Bug - Parent/Child Object Issues

Okay just so I don't think I'm seeing things. I've attached a screenshot. You can see my child table, with three objects in it (scroll down in the attached image). However looking at the LogViewer you see that COUNT in a rule on the parent object Questionnaire, only returns a count of 1. I went to 3...

Re: Possible Bug - Parent/Child Object Issues

if ChilObject Was Changed and then use COUNT function of children and store it in parent
I'm going to give this a go again. This was the first way I tried to do it but the WAS CHANGED event wasn't getting triggered kinda like how the WAS ADDED TO didn't seem to get triggered. But I'll try again.

Re: Possible Bug - Parent/Child Object Issues

You could have an attribute in the parent BO that tracks the number of children. Sounds like you would want the rule that updates the number of children to be dynamic. Then you can make the operation to add children be conditional ... not available is the number of children is > x. This exactly wha...

Possible Bug - Parent/Child Object Issues

I want to limit the number of child objects that a parent can have. So I setup a rule in the Parent Object. IF LIST_SIZE(Parent.Children) > 1 THEN REPORT ERROR The parent object is a new unsaved object and then children objects are being added using Add New Reference. Adding the child object is fine...

Re: Parent and Child Object Issues

I got it to work. The parent object Questionnaire was set as required in the Applicant child object. So I guess it was hitting the required rule before it properly set the reference. So I used Add Reference and it works well. Just need to make sure that the parent object isn't required in the child ...

Re: Parent and Child Object Issues

Oh yeah the Questionnaire was the value for input for the ENTER NEW process as well.

Just retried it with Add Reference. When I hit CREATE on the Applicant Child Object I get the Value of Questionnaire must be provided error

Re: Parent and Child Object Issues

ENTER NEW was what I was familiar with the last time I did it, so that's why I initially went that route. I saw Add Reference and have tried it, but am not getting any success. How should I be using it? Does the parent object have to be saved before Add Reference would work. Here's what I've done wh...

Parent and Child Object Issues

I'm using v7.1 build 2223. I'm assuming I'm doing something wrong. This should be so straightforward, for the life of me I can't figure out why it won't work. I have a Questionnaire Object and an Applicant object. A questionnaire object can have multiple Applicant objects. On my questionnaire form, ...

Auto configure existing database

I have a few existing database systems that I'm considering moving to AwareIM. It would be an incredible timesaver if AwareIM could scroll through the the existing database and setup the business objects based on the existing table names.
