step triggers

I'm having trouble when to call a procedure that runs a submit job to different entity.  The problem is I need it to run when the user is FINISHED with the stepper but I need to access attributes in the last step.  I don't want it to run if the user navigates back to a previous step. I hope I'm missing something.  On exit will run if I click the BACK navigation.  Any guidance is appreciated.

Hello Matthew,

Why not on stepper finish?

I'm leaving here the section of the documentation that is detailing all the options:

https://www.semarchy.com/doc/semarchy-xdm/xdm/latest/Design/applications/stepper-triggers.html#_stepper_events

The problem is that the FINISH is not available at the step level.

That's a problem because I need access to the attributes in the entity to pass as parameters to the procedure. Attributes aren't available at this level.

Is there another way to get to the values I need with the FINISH event?


No, only variables indeed.

For which action is this? Creation, update, import?

I'm needing to update values in a separate entity


Alexia, After rereading you question I realized what you are asking.  This is a can be either a creation or an edit action.  I'm needing to update a separate entity with some of the data.

Ok, so we can't use the dedicated actions collection triggers.

I'm out of ideas, would you be interested in me forwarding this to our Professional Services team.

They are much better equipped to handle those implementation questions.

I found a work around with setting flags and indicators.  Feels like a missing trigger!  The user has clicked FINISHED but need access to the attribures.
