Loosely related, when I select on a (parent) entity on a Browse screen, I want to add logic that will select a particular View or Edit screen to appear. I want the logic to be based on one or more property values from the parent entity I clicked on on the Browse screen (e.g. I want a specific screen to be displayed based on entity values of the entity that was picked).
Any ideas?

Where is the RSS feed for this blog?!

Hi
but how can use the same logically 'Dynamically Creating Records ' with a DataBase attached?

Thanks
Regards

I tried something similar:
var photo = new myapp.Photo();
photo.photo1 = dataURL.substring(dataURL.indexOf(",") + 1);

But it says photo1 is undefined. More generally, I cannot access any property of photo, the're all undefined.
Any clue why?
Tks.

Hi Michael,

How could I dynamically add a certain number of records? for eg, 12 records at a press of button. I tried to use for loop but couldn't do that.

Thanks

Hello

can anyone explain me how do i set the new screen values to the collection on the afterclosed event ?


beforeShown: function (AddEditScreen) {

var newOrder = new myapp.tblOrder();
AddEditScreen.tblOrder = newOrder;
},
afterClosed: function (addEditScreen, navigationAction) {
if (navigationAction === msls.NavigateBackAction.commit) {
var newOrder = addEditScreen.tblOrder;
screen.tblOrders.addNew(newOrder); <------------------------------ does not appear on the list collection (or appears as a new item not the one with the data from the new screen on the beforeShown event)
}
}


thank you :)

useful examples, thanks.
I try this with a external database , like
var newCustomer = new myapp.Customer();
return myapp.activeDataWorkspace.SQLData.saveChanges();
is not work. also try with another tutorial using serverApplicationContext still can't save the new entity
to external SQLDatabase. I guess these method is work only for _IntrinsicData.
Can you please post a tutorial for post new entity to external database?

Hi Michael, thanks for all of your posts. How do you dynamically add child of a child. I have a Business with Clients with Social Media Accounts. I am able to dynamically add the Clients but the Social Media Accounts show "No Items". Hope you see this. I am stuck.

Michael, you are a lifesaver. The issue was setting the Clients.selectedItem to the new client and assigning that to the new social media Client. Thank you again.

I have the code you are using above, and am attempting to add multiple records in a related table:

When an OrderLine table is added, I want whatever quantity is selected to be inserted into the related table like so (on the execute of a button):

screen.OrderLine.QuantityOrdered = 5;
var counter = screen.OrderLine.QuantityOrdered;

while (counter >0) {
counter--;

var newLine = new myapp.SerialScan();
newLine.setOrderLine(screen.OrderLine);
newLine.SerialNumber = null;
newLine.DateStamp = '13/05/2016';

var sheets = screen.details.dataWorkspace.DataSource.OrderLines.load().then(function (results) {
var sheet = results.results[0];
if (sheet != undefined && sheet != null) {
newLine.setOrderLine(sheet);
}
});
}

however this causes severe time delays of 10-15 seconds per save, any ideas on how I can stop this issue? if i comment out the line starting with var sheets, there is no issues, however this is needed to associate the parts together

thanks for any help on this
