Rule in process

vinsnash

I've created a process that prints a document with line items based on the setting of an attribute. Once the report has printed I want to reset that attribute so the items don't appear again unless the attribute is deliberately reset. The attribute has two possible values and I'm using a radio button to force an 'either/or' choice. I use this rule and it works:

FIND NSCPers WHERE (NSCPers.ReUpNewID='I' OR NSCPers.ReUpNewID='R') NSCPers.ReUpNewID = Undefined

Now I need to narrow the selection to those instances that 'belong' to LoggedInRegularUser.LoginName. Rather than look for just those instances that have the attribute set to 'R' or 'I' I thought I'd just reset the attribute in all instances for the user using this rule:

FIND NSCPers WHERE NSCPers.UnitCode = LoggedInRegulareUser.LoginName NSCPers.ReUpNewID = Undefined

This version returns the error that 'Undefined' is not one of the choices for the attribute. I can't seem to formulate a rule that selects 'I' or 'R' for just the logged in user without the same error. Is there another way to skin this cat?

Thanks for any help

Try

FIND NSCPers WHERE (NSCPers.ReUpNewID='I' OR NSCPers.ReUpNewID='R')
NSCPers.ReUpNewID = ''

That may work

Thanks but 'Undefined' works in that syntax. It's when I add another condition to the 'FIND' that the error comes up.

FIND OBJ WHERE (OBJ.A = 'X' OR OBJ.A = 'Y') OBJ.A = UNDEFINED

The above works but it sets all OBJ.A that = 'X' or 'Y' to UNDEFINED. I need to narrow the selection to only OBJ for the logged in user. Each instance of OBJ has an attribute that matches the LoggedIn.Name but when I add that condition to the above the error is thrown.

My apologies. I must have been dreaming. 'Undefined' doesn't work in either case nor does ''. Because I've specified the values as only 'R' and 'I' and using a radio button that's the only values allowed. I'll have to figure another way to accomplish this.

Thanks again
