Hi

An alert generally comes if the data are not saved. Since via submit button we are trying to finish an assignment, it takes care of saving the data automatically hence no such alert gets displayed !

So I would like to know what exactly you want to prompt the users on click of the submit button of a flow action  ?

Hi Santanu,

I wanted to display a modal dialog when user clicks the submit button of flow actions. (It has nothing to do with input dirty check)

On the modal dialog, I need to display "OK" and "Cancel" button.

If user select "OK", the flow action should be performed and the flow should be resumed (go to next assignment)

If user select "Cancel" the flow action should Not be performed and the flow should Not be resumed (stay on current assignment).

Hi Santanu,

Thanks for your post!

I just verified your approach on my local.

The "OK" action worked as expected, however the "Cancel" action didn't work as expected.

The screen moved to "Review" harness, as I clicked "Cancel" button on the modal dialog.

I want the "Cancel" button behave as same as the "X" (close) icon on the right upper corner of modal dialog.

Is it possible?

Chunzhi
