There are some employees that do not have a supervisor. So, they would skip that step in the flow and go directly to the Dept. Manager. Here is what I have so far. However, I have not been able to figure out how to get those w/out a supervisor to go ahead to the DM. Right now it just puts the DM into the supervisor section, thus throwing off the rest of the flow.

if (form.load)
{
current_date.value = DateUtil.today();
  var an = _data.getParameter ("flow.activity.name");
//Employee
  if (an == 'Employee' && EmployeeName.value.length == 0) {
EmployeeName.value = _data.getParameter('subject.first.name') + ' ' + _data.getParameter('subject.last.name');
    SId.value = _data.getParameter('subject.reports.to');
    ApprovalSection.visible = false;
    SupervisorApproval.visible = false;
    SupervisorApproval.required = false;
    ManagerApproval.visible = false;
    ManagerApproval.required = false;
    COOApproval.visible = false;
    COOApproval.required = false;
    ExecutiveApproval.visible = false;
    ExecutiveApproval.required = false;
    HRPayrollOnly.visible = false;
    HRPayrollOnly.required = false;
  }
//Supervisor
else if (an == 'Supervisor' && SupervisorName.value.length == 0) {
SupervisorName.value = _data.getParameter('subject.first.name') + ' ' + _data.getParameter('subject.last.name');
    MId.value = _data.getParameter('subject.reports.to');
    SupervisorApproval.visible = true;
    SupervisorApproval.required = true;
    ManagerApproval.visible = false;
    ManagerApproval.required = false;
    COOApproval.visible = false;
    COOApproval.required = false;
    ExecutiveApproval.visible = false;
    ExecutiveApproval.required = false;
    HRPayrollOnly.visible = false;
    HRPayrollOnly.required = false;
}
//Department Manager
else if (an == 'Manager' && ManagerName.value.length == 0) {
ManagerName.value = _data.getParameter('subject.first.name') + ' ' + _data.getParameter('subject.last.name');
    COOId.value = _data.getParameter('subject.reports.to');
    SupervisorApproval.visible = false;
    SupervisorApproval.required = false;
    ManagerApproval.visible = true;
    ManagerApproval.required = true;
    COOApproval.visible = false;
    COOApproval.required = false;
    ExecutiveApproval.visible = false;
    ExecutiveApproval.required = false;
    HRPayrollOnly.visible = false;
    HRPayrollOnly.required = false;
  }
//COO
  if (an == 'COO' && COOName.value.length == 0) {
COOName.value = _data.getParameter('subject.first.name') + ' ' + _data.getParameter('subject.last.name');
    EDId.value = _data.getParameter('subject.reports.to');
    SupervisorApproval.visible = false;
    SupervisorApproval.required = false;
    ManagerApproval.visible = false;
    ManagerApproval.required = false;
    COOApproval.visible = true;
    COOApproval.required = true;
    ExecutiveApproval.visible = false;
    ExecutiveApproval.required = false;
    HRPayrollOnly.visible = false;
    HRPayrollOnly.required = false;
}
//Executive Director
  if (an == 'Executive Director' && ExecutiveDirName.value.length == 0) {
ExecutiveDirName.value = _data.getParameter('subject.first.name') + ' ' + _data.getParameter('subject.last.name');
    HId.value = _data.getParameter('subject.reports.to');
    SupervisorApproval.visible = false;
    SupervisorApproval.required = false;
    ManagerApproval.visible = false;
    ManagerApproval.required = false;
    COOApproval.visible = false;
    COOApproval.required = false;
    ExecutiveApproval.visible = true;
    ExecutiveApproval.required = true;
    HRPayrollOnly.visible = false;
    HRPayrollOnly.required = false;
}
//HR & Payroll
else if (an == 'HR' && HrName.value.length == 0) {
HrName.value = _data.getParameter('subject.first.name') + ' ' + _data.getParameter('subject.last.name');
    SupervisorApproval.visible = true;
    SupervisorApproval.required = true;
    ManagerApproval.visible = true;

    HRPayrollOnly.required = true;
  }
}

In the Java script (FundPicked and ResourcePicked are string variables)
eval('f=' + http.get('http://fortisdemo:8080/database/REQUISITION/AccountsGivenFundAndResource?FundID=' + FundPicked + '?ResPrj=' + ResourcePicked)) ;

in configuration.xml
<query name="AccountsGivenFundAndResource" autocreate="true">
          <retrieve>
              <statement>
                  SELECT * FROM ChartofAccounts WHERE FundID = '{FundID}'
                  AND ResPrj = '{ResPrj}'
              </statement>
          </retrieve>
      </query>

What syntax should I use to call this from a Form rule?

eval('x=' + http.put('http://servername:8080/database/REQUISITION/NextRequisitionID'));

does not work.

The nested elements work great. The item totals work wonderfully when adding multiple items. The part I am having trouble with is the "itemRemoved" business rule.

The "Suggested Vendor Section" errors with the following error:

11:28:04,950  WARN RuleObserver:458 - Error evaluating rule [PA Purchase Request.Calc req total if removed]: Java class "[Ljava.lang.Object;" has no public instance field or method named "itemRemoved". ([PA Purchase Request.Calc req total if removed]#2)

Is there a technique whereby an error message or alert can displayed to users who click on the Send button when not all the mandatory fields have been completed?

The Send button is set up as 'Enable if valid' and the users are prompted to complete all fields marked as mandatory but I want to cater for those users who think that just hitting the Send button means the form has been submitted.

If the Send button is not enabled can you test for a trigger event when a user attempts to click it?

Seems a daft post but not half as daft as some of our users!

Thanks

if (form.load){
message.value = 'Your box will be destroyed on:' + date.value
}

I have discoverd that the date control cannot be set in the message control.  It displays the default "This is my message" in testing. If I leave out the date.value the text string displays 'Your box will be destroyed on:' . If I change the variable to different control in the form (like text) it displays fine. Is there a solution to get the date displayed in the message?

This is what I tried: \b[\s,\.-:;]*{150}

But it is not working. I entered more than 150 words without an error

Does anyone else have any suggestions.

It has been roughly 7 months since version 4.0 was released and this is holding up our upgrade to the current version.

Not sure how to do this. Perhaps someone has done this before or can someone point me in the right direction?

Many thanks!

The following is an excerpt from the stdout log file  (the Requisition_Number is a text box on the form).
15:48:19,303  WARN RuleObserver:455 - Error evaluating rule [PUSD Purchase Requisition Form.Form Load Script]: Cannot set 'value' as 'undefined' (SourceFile#107)
if (form.load) {

eval('x=' + http.get('http://servername:8080/database/REQUISITION/LocationGivenID'));
Requisition_Number.value = x.Location;
}
Since the query should be returning data, why does it look like x.Location is undefined?  Do I have a syntax error?

10:58:58,406 ERROR ConstantRules:228 - Unable to GET initial document from URL: http://<URL_HERE> Got: java.lang.NullPointerException

This is a GET query and it uses database connector to display data on the form.

It looks like one of the business rules on the form is failing (ConstantRules:228). Is there some way to identify which rule exactly is failing?
