Undo the user update on a screen
I want to add a "undo" button that allows the user to refresh the current screen with the last saved values. In other words, to withdraw the latest update of the user.
My problem is that I don't find an existing activity or script doing that.
A simple solution would be just filling the screen again with the clipboard values without saving to the clipboard what the user has entered in the screen.
How can I do that?

Hello,
I don't think we have such undo mechanism Out-Of-The-Box. It could be quite complex to undo anything with Pega. Just a change on a field could trigger other actions on different WorkObjects all over the place.
I guess you will have to create a custom one based on your specific requirements.

hi, easy solution would be to take a snapshot of your current section and store them in clipboard (as list) every time a change is made. When "undo" button is clicked you could pop the last one from that page and refresh the section.
I am not sure what Pega version you are on but 8.1 has a runtime authoring capability with undo/redo last 10 changes. So let me know what version you are on and can point out a working example.
Thanks!

Are you asking for undo as a rule developer or undo as a feature for your end users in the app you are building?
Are you asking for undo of all changes since the last save, or undo a single change at a time?

Hi,
I am talking about a feature for the end users.
Ideally, all changes since the last save, but if we already have it for sections that are not refreshed, it would still be nice.

If I understand correct, you want to show the last saved instance on click of undo button.
Is it not similar to 'Refresh' present in the Actions menu of any rule. You can use the same events on click of the undo button.
Let me know if this helps
