Hi All,

I Need a help in document chaining.

i have two apps app1 and app2.

and i have used a button in app1 to open app2 and i implemented that by using open URL action to navigate to the specific sheet in app2.

now my requirement is to pass on the selection that i made in app1 to app2.

Can anyone please help on this.

I have to work on this on priority...

Thanks in advance

Nani

Hi nani,

Please find attached chained documents.

In Document 1.qvw you find a button which redirects to another document 1-copy.qvw where your current selections in doc 1.qvw will be transferred to 1-copy.qvw.

let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Krishna,

Thanks for your reply.

My actual requirement is i have 4 sheets in app 1 and same 4 sheets in app2.

and when i opened app2 ,the active sheet in app 2 should be the sheet which is active in app1.

for this requirement i have used open url action and i have passed the sheet=SheetID parameter.

sheet navigation is working fine but how to transfer selections is my present challenge.

i hope you got my question.

Thanks

Nani

Oh,So you say its not Transferring the selections from Parent qvw (App1) to child qvw(App2)?

If you open App2 from App1 you can transfer the state of app 1 to App2 by the method in the attached files.

(As you've said/asked in your question : requirement is to pass on the selection that i made in app1 to app2.)

let me know if you wanna do vice versa?

Thanks

Thanks

Please find the linked docs.

when you click button in app 1.qvw, it transfers its state to 2nd app 1-copy.qvw.

Change the button action from 'open Qv doc' to 'open url' in your case and check.

let me know how it goes.

thanks

You can pass selections in the URL. See

AJAX and URL parameters

URL Composer = compute an Access-Point link and pass selection values, open sheets etc.

Hi Rob,

I have tested my app with the solution you have suggested, But here in my scenario the selections are dynamic they are not standard selections.

so we have to pass selections dynamically based on our selection.

Can you please have a look on this.

Thanks

You can form the URL, including the selections, using an expression. Use GetFieldSelections('X') to get specific selections for a field. Then it's just a matter of formatting the string correctly.

Hi Nani,

Sorry for replying in this old post, But I am trying to achieve the same as your requirement. Did you get success in forming the link? I tried by using GetFieldSeelctions but not able to pass selections from multiple objects.

Please reply.

Thanks.

Best Regards,

Neha
