I’m not at my PC, so i can’t look for exact steps easily… but this thread should hopefully help:
Basically you have to make a custom layer of the slide out form (process).
Then you need a custom layer of the base form (the linked example above was using MES, but I would assume it would be the same). In that layer you’ll need a new event which loads the target process, with your new custom process layer applied.
Right. The base event on the base form calls the base process.
You need to customize the base process to include whatever you’re looking for.
You then need a custom layer of the base form. Receipt Entry. This is because you need to alter the event… but you can’t change base events. So you need a custom layer of Receipt entry. Then copy the base event and where it calls the attribute process (app-open), you can enter a layer to apply. You’ll tell it to apply your custom process layer.
So, in the end, you’ll have a custom form layer (Receipt entry) with a customized event to call the app open (lot attributes… or whatever) with your custom process layer applied.
You can hopefully copy the base event and set the trigger to override the base event.
… i know it sounds like a lot, and there should be a better way… but this seems to work. I can test it out in detail tomorrow morning if it helps.
There are slideouts that open a separate screen (application) - like an iFrame of a different web page. You can pass it values and which layer to use, but it runs independently from the main page you have open (I’m not sure it even has access to the data views of the current page, either)x
In this case, Receipt Entry opens an instance of whatever application handles Lot Control in a side panel…
It is odd that the base events seem to call the app-open within two different events.
I don’t know if you’d need two different override events to make sure you capture both cases?? Tough to follow from a distance, and we don’t use lot attributes so I can’t really test this exact scenario out.
