Procedure: get value from FORM

Hi,

I'm building a "Procedure" and I'm using "$formValue" to get the value of the form field.
But it does not work. Any idea why?

Thank you for the support.

Rui,
from wiki:

$formValue
This is an array of the Variables from the selection Form, created prior to running an activity

.

In selection form you should have, for example, an object with "my_obj" in All tab > Field Name.
In your procedure code you should have:

Code: Select all

$value = $formValue['my_obj'];

Hope this helps,
Max

Hi,
$formValue works in report Data Code.
In Procedure u have to pass values with runIt function
e.g. runIt("pcode","val1","val2","val3")

and catch the values in Procedure PHP Code
$var1 = "#runIt1#";
$var2 = "#runIt2#";
$var3 = "#runIt3#";

Hi,

Thanks!
I have this procedure with a filed:

: procedure_asset.jpg (20.21 KiB) Viewed 8380 times

and I need to scan a asset tag (with a hand scanner with "return carriage").
After scan I need the the procedure to "run" (open the new window and close it when if finishes). The "Asset field" has then to be empty and ready to accept a new value.

Any advice?

Thank you.

Hi,

if u want a button, use "Extra Action Buttons" on the form.
add button title and "Javascript to run";

Code: Select all

runIt("procedureCode",$("#fieldName").val());
$("#fieldName").val(''); //clear the field for the next scan

where procedureCode is obviously procedure code and
$("#fieldName").val() fieldName is the fields name u need to pass to procedure.

in Procedure PHP Code:

Code: Select all

$var = '#runIt1#';

//do your stuff

echo "<html><body  onload='window.close()'></body></html>";

but u could activate the runIt() function automatically when the required field gets the value from the scanner with javascript.

hope it makes sense
