Page Comparison

One of the action you can add on to ResultMatrix is to have a button , which will navigate users to another page to perform an action with selected the list of items selected from the matrix.

...

Before the button performs the action - To perform the action, there has to be a definition of the action – it is either a Deep deep link or a Context context link. To perform the action, it needs the definition of the action - so it will call the BackEndAction Logic, The BackEndAction logic is called to retrieve the definition.

...

• Logic Nature: generic (null)

  • Logic Type: Calculation/Pricing

• Execution Types

  • Standard - the logic – Logic is only executed via normal execution.

• Information provided to the logic

  • Inputs:

    • InputMatrix input with a list of items selected in the ResultMatrix. The name of this input is set in the call of method rowSelectionBackEndAction()when calling the rowSelectionBackEndAction() method.

    • The ResultMatrix can also pass additional inputs to this logic, via calling the method BackEndAction.addFormulaInput().

• Expected logic execution outcome

  • The first visible element (with Display Mode = Everywhere) is expected to return a Map with definition of the action link. It can be either Deep deep link or Context context link. See the code sample below.

  • if If the logic fails with an exception:

    • the jump The exception from the logic is displayed as an error notification.

    • Redirection to another page will not happen.

    • and the The frontend can display an error , which was set via withFailureMessage(). This message will override the exception message returned from the logic.

  • In the logic you can use yellowAlert(), redAlert(), or criticalAlert() to display notifications.

    • criticalAlert() will cancel redirection to another page.

Code Samples

Example of BackEndAction Logiclogic:

def products = api.inputMatrix('productsDataSet', 'sku')

return [
  targetPage     : AppPages.QC_NEW_QUOTE,
  targetPageState: [
    targetPageItems: products.collect { it -> return it.sku },
    targetPageTab: 'items'
]

Example of a logic which built to build the Result Matrix , which creates the action button , which called calling the BackEndAction Logiclogic:

def products= api.find("P", 0, 10, null, ["sku", "label", "currency"])

def resultMatrix = api.newMatrix().withColumnFormats([
        "sku"  : FieldFormatType.TEXT,
        "label":FieldFormatType.TEXT,
        "currency": FieldFormatType.TEXT
]).withRows(products);

resultMatrix.rowSelectionBackEndAction("productsDataSet")
        .withLogicName("BackEndActionLogic")
        .withColumns("sku")
        .withButtonLabel("New Quote")

return resultMatrix

Example of result matrix with multiple buttons, error handling and passing additional parameters.

Result matrix:

def products = api.find("P", 0, 10, null, ["sku", "label", "currency"])

def resultMatrix = api.newMatrix().withColumnFormats([
  "sku"     : FieldFormatType.TEXT,
  "label"   : FieldFormatType.TEXT
]).withRows(products);

resultMatrix.rowSelectionBackEndAction("selectedProducts")
  .withLogicName("BackEndActionLogic_Example2")
  .withColumns("sku")
  .withButtonLabel("New Quote")

resultMatrix.rowSelectionBackEndAction("selectedProducts")
  .withLogicName("BackEndActionLogic_Example2")
  .withColumns("sku")
  .withButtonLabel("New Quote With Header Type")
  .withButtonTooltip('Create a quote with the "Embedded_CFO" type')
  .withFailureMessage('Error message displayed if the logic throws an exception')
  .withSuccessMessage('Success message')
  .addFormulaInput('quoteType', 'Embedded_CFO')
  .addFormulaInput('quoteLabel', "New Embedded_CFO quote!")

return resultMatrix;

Code of BackEndActionLogic_Example2:

// Selected rows in result matrixdef items = api.inputMatrix('selectedProducts', 'sku')

// Quote type passed in .addFormulaInput('quoteType', 'Embedded_CFO')def quoteType = api.input('quoteType')

// Quote label passed in .addFormulaInput('quoteLabel', "New Embedded_CFO quote")def quoteLabel = api.input('quoteLabel')

    targetPageState: [
      targetPageFields: [
        label: quoteLabel,
        expiryDate: "2023-12-24"      ],
      targetPageEntityType: quoteType,
      targetPageItemsInputs: items,
