Drop Down (Yet another question)

ekdawn26

My Build No. 1588

I've searched the forum extensively prior to writing but could not really find a simple explanation that may fit me.

I am trying to build a drop down on one BO form with a single referenced attribute with another B.O.

When testing each time I change the selection on the drop down list, the values stay the same, never refresh. I was told to build a filter, which I did. Still, my trial was in vain.

I would really appreciate any help.

B.O. = JobTitles_All
Attribute = JobTitles

B.O. = PerformanceEvaluation
Linked Attribute = JobTitles2

Presentation of the Linked Attribute JobTitles2 = Drop Down / Fetch All Records at once

The Custom Query Filter that I created as follows:

JobTitles_All.JobTitles=(Ask at run-time)

Please advise what my mistakes are. Thank you so much in advance.

Why do you need a filter? What are you trying to achieve here from the user point of view?

Hello and thank you for responding. Let me clarify my question 🙂

My question:

Is there a rule that must be incorporated to make an object form automatically refresh whenever a new item is chosen from a drop down list, particularly after an object form is saved or created?

The Background:

I have a Business Object called "PerformanceEvaluation", with an attribute called "JobTitles2".

This "JobTitles2" is presented in a drop down style that fetches all records at once from the attribute "JobTitles" from another B.O. called "JobTitles_All". They are related via a peer relationship called "Relationship1".

Through the Visual Perspective panel, I am able to tick "Show Object Details After Creation" within the Create Object type. This allows users to view what they've done in the form before clicking "Create" to save the record.

My problem is, whenever users want to start a new record by choosing another item from the drop down list, the information that was created beforehand (the one that was just created) continue to be visible on the form. The form does not refresh when users choose another items from the drop down list.

I appreciate as always all the help.

I know I can be confusing at times but I hope you can bear with me.

Please advise what must I do. Thank you again.

I cannot understand anything. Why does selecting an item from a drop down list create a new record? If you want help on this please purchase a support ticket and send us a detailed description of what you want to achieve.

Thanks, I now resolved this on my own.
