Links on Forms

Post by leopdurr »

Hi Support

If I have a process that edit an Object it will load the form inside a Popup Window, if you are useing the View function instead of Edit it will not load a Popup. How can I get the Edit process not load in a popup. Also if I have a Hyperlink on the form and it will close my form instead of loading a small form on a popup.

Please help

What is calling the Edit? For example, if it's called from a Query operation, you can control the target location of the Edit.

From a Query and I will like the form to appear where the Query appear on the screen. the Form should replace the Query.

Perhaps the query operation could use DISPLAY LAYOUT

I run the Query and I have a Edit and a New command that is executed by a Process. I want when I click on Edit or New it will load the form in the Same section what the query appear and not as a Popup.

Edit:

1- Create a process with 1 line: VIEW BO USING Main
2- Place the process in a Query Operation with "Direct output to:" Default

On the Main form of BO, you might want to Checkmark the box "Save when closed" depending on your needs.


New:

1- Create a two line process:

Create BO
VIEW BO Using Main

2- Ditto #2 above

I will implement this option and let you know.
In regards to the NEW option since we are using the CREAT function then View the record, what if the user decided that they do not want to continue how can i get this record remove without user intervention?
