H5 script- How to stop being moved to next panel?

Hi,

I am developing a H5 script in APS100/E panel. This script gets triggered when the user clicks 'Add' button and will do some validation in APS100/E panel and will throw a Error message(ConfirmDialog) if the validation fails.
It is working fine as expected but unfortunately after the Error message Pop-Up, It is automatically navigating to the 'F' panel. Any idea how i can stop this from being moved to 'F' panel? I want it to remain in E-panel.

Hi Subramanian,

Can you try this? In the condition where you want to stay on the same panel.

args.cancel = true;

return;

You need to subscribe on the "requesting" event and selectively cancel or approve the event. There should be a sample script in the H5 scripting guide that illustrates the process.

Greetings;

1745885 and 1554226 both have the correct answer. I thought I'd share the code I use to help you along.

Put this code in where the script initializes. Remember to unsubscribe the events when you leave.

        this.unsubscribeRequesting = this.controller.Requesting.On((e) => { this.onRequesting(e); });
this.unsubscribeRequested = this.controller.Requested.On((e) => { this.onRequested(e); });

 This is the actual function I use, it allows the users to go back, but runs the check when they try to advance.

    private onRequesting(args: CancelRequestEventArgs) {
let panelName = this.controller.GetPanelName();
        ExchangeRate.appLog("onRequesting: " + panelName);

if (args.commandType === "KEY" && args.commandValue === "F12") {
return; // The user should be allowed to go back
        }

if (args.commandType === "KEY" && args.commandValue === "F3") {
return; // The user should be allowed to go back
        }

if (args.commandType === "KEY" && args.commandValue === "ENTER") {
            args.cancel = this.PerformRateCheck();
return;
        }

return;
    }

This is the unsubscribe I use.

    private onRequested(args: RequestEventArgs) {
let panelName = this.controller.GetPanelName();
        ExchangeRate.appLog("onRequested: " + panelName);

this.unsubscribeRequested();
this.unsubscribeRequesting();

return;
    }

The PreformRateCheck function returns a bool which will block or allow the panel advancement.

Good luck!

Hi,

Thanks for all of your responses. But unfortunately it is still not working.
Below is the standard M3 functionality of APS100,
1) The user will input supplier Invoice information (SUNO,SINO, CUAM ) in APS100/E, After inputting these 3 data, he/she will press ENTER (or) Standard Add button.
2) After this action the screen will still be in APS100/E, but populating few more values like FTCO,BSCD and ECAR etc. After this, He/She will press the ENTER/Add button again in order to navigate to 'F' panel and this is the place where i want to do some validation using my script. I am taking FTCO value from the field, calling the CRS045MI.GetBasicData, checking a condition and displaying the Error BOX if it fails.

I am attaching the script with the standard 'Add' button in APS100/E, hoping that the script will get triggered only when the 'Add' button is clicked. But i can see my script is getting called multiple times irrespective of 'Add' event. Also i am not sure how to make this script to work both for 'Add' or 'ENTER' action. It is always navigating to 'F' panel and then showing the 'Error' dialog which should not happen.
Below is my script,

if (args.commandType === "KEY" && args.commandValue === "F3")
{
return; // The user should be allowed to go back
}

if(WADIVI.val() === "AAA" || WADIVI.val() == "BBB")
{
if(WWFNCN.val() === 100 || WWFNCN.val() === 200 || WWFNCN.val() === 300)
{
var FTCO = ScriptUtil.FindChild(this.$host, "WEFTCO");
if( FTCO.val() !== "")
{
const requestTRUN = new MIRequest();
requestTRUN.program = "CRS045MI";
requestTRUN.transaction = "GetBasicData";
requestTRUN.record = { CSCD: FTCO.val().trim() };
MIService.Current.executeRequest(requestTRUN)
.then(response =>
{
var TRUN = response.item.TRUN;
if(TRUN == "EU")
{
ConfirmDialog.ShowMessageDialog({
dialogType: "Warning",
header: "Incorrect FAM",
message: "Incorrect FAM function is used"
});

args.Cancel=true;
return;
}
}).catch(err =>
{
console.log(err);
});
}

}
catch (err)
{
console.log(err.message);
}
}
}
return;
};

this.onRequested = function (args) {
console.log("Unsubscribing Requested");
this.unsubscribeRequested();
this.unsubscribeRequesting();
};

return FAM_Test;
};
