Example of using 'Options' in Form Grid

Confluence User - 15 Nov, 2017

Hello, according to the shown in Form Grid it is possible to show the labels of a selectbox field instead of the IDs, with the use of the 'Options' format. However I could not configure it, and even the system shows me errors. In fact I do not understand very well the concept 'Form Def ID'. Do any of the experts have an example of the use of this feature?

Hi

Attached below is a sample app demonstrating the use of options in form grid. Do try it out and view the properties in the forms to see how it works.

Steps after importing and publishing the app:

  1. Go to Manage Setup Country to key in some lookup records. Example code='US', country='United States'.
  2. Then go to Manage Parent With Form Grid to add a record, click on the PLUS button to add a form grid row. On submitting the form grid popup form, the form grid will display the country name but internally it will store as an 'id' value. Example display as United States' but stores into db as 'US'.
  3. You can view to confirm how the child records are stored in this Manage Child Subform menu.
