Screen flow continues to next screen when current screen has property set message.
Hi,
Pega Version: 8.7
Scenario: Screen in screen flow, need to validate property value and set error message. while errors is displayed on screen user should not be able to continue to next screen (click on continue and proceed) until expected values are entered.
Implementation :
Our case type is temporary case, We have screen flow with 4 screens (not configured: Save on last step and allow errors). in 1st screen , on change of a property value we refresh section and run data transform to validate the property value and set property set message. which is working as expected.
but while the error is on the screen can navigate to the next screen when click on continue button.
Note: default property required validation is working as expected , when required validation is there cannot continue to next screen.
We have tried with validate rule in flow action and running the same validate data transform rule mentioned in above using post processing data transform rule ( which is error can be seen in the clipboard only , screen is hanged )
would be great if any suggestions on this, Thanks !

@KasunS30 - I had a similar problem with a button that is used to jump back in the case when two conditions are fulfilled. To check this condition I set up a DT as described here. https://support.pega.com/discussion/set-message-clipboard-property-using-datatransform
Although the Error Message appeared, the FinishAssignment Activity did not obey it and jumped back.
To overcome this I set a WhenRule condition on FinishAssignment activity on that button. This works fine, if you have only one or two properties to check, however it will be complicated if there are many of them.
Can you describe why the Validation rule(s) on your flow action do not work? Check the conditions and properties, may be there's an error.
Hope this helps.
