Question

Changing default behavior when adding a record from an editable list.

18:37 Apr 06, 2020

I have been having issues changing the default behavior when adding a record from a detail with an editable list. After adding the “IsEditable” attribute to my detail schema, whenever I want to add a record from the detail page a new row is added rather than showing the edit page for adding a new record. Is there a way I change this behavior?

Daer Alex,

You can override the method openCardByMode in the detail schema, forcing the detail to open the card instead of adding a row. You can see the original method in the BaseGridDetailV2 schema in the NUI package.

Dennis Hudson,

Thank you I was able to override this method and it worked. For anyone trying to do a similar thing here is the code I added to my detail schema.

openCardByMode: function() {
     const cardState = this.get("CardState");
     const editPageUId = this.get("EditPageUId");
     const primaryValueUId = this.get("PrimaryValueUId");
     this.openCard(cardState, editPageUId, primaryValueUId);    
}

I just removed the if else statement from the original method:

if (this.getIsEditable() &amp;&amp; cardState !== enums.CardStateV2.EDIT) { 
    this.addRow(editPageUId);
} else {
    this.openCard(cardState, editPageUId, primaryValueUId);
}
