Menu selection input

A menu selection input control is utilized to choose a key field value from a table. Menu selection inputs occupy less space compared to list selection inputs but may not be as practical for large data sources with extensive information in each record.

• Target Variable The name of the new variable(s) to store the selected value. The data stored in the variable will be the value from the selected variable in "Field to select".

• Source

  • Variable - Select the table that will serve as the data source for the list.

  • Expression - Write the FlowScript expression that will serve as the data source for the list. You can add conditions based on target variables for controls within the User step. If variables within the user step are used in the condition, ensure that Allow Dependencies is set to true for the user step. The user step must allow dependencies for this functionality to work properly.

    Example:

    {customer where CompanyId = selectedCompany}

• Prompt The label to be displayed at the top of the list.

• Row Text Enter text and variables that should be displayed in the list. Use {} to access a list of available variables from the source table.

• Condition To Hide

  Specify the condition that must be fulfilled for the control to be hidden. If left unspecified, the control will remain visible in the user step. Note that when controls are hidden, empty variables will be generated unless default values or pre-defined data exist.

• Default Value Enter a default value based on the values of the variable entered in "Field to Select".

• Field to Select The target variable will contain the value of this field.

• Show Empty Option The list will be empty when the user enters the user step.

• Text of Empty Option Enter a text for the empty option (optional).

• Allow Empty Option Selection If set to True, the operator is permitted to proceed in the workflow without selecting a value.

• Reloading
