How to force a DFF to show up when a new record is entered in a form, but not required to enter valu
I need to force a DFF to show up when a new record is entered. However, users can choose to enter values to the DFF or not enter anything (just close it). I have tried following:
- open the form
- go to diagnostics --> custom code --> personalize
- condition = WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE and then choose the object with processing mode = both
- under Actions and then Select by Text: object_type = item, target object = DFF, Property Name = Required, value = True.
If I use this setup, the DFF will show up when I enter a new record but I have to enter/pick a value to the DFF. Otherwise system won't allow me to move on. I need to be able to close the DFF and move on for some cases. I think the key is the Property name I used, 'Required'. If I don't use 'Required', DFF don't pop up at all. I have tried 'enabled', 'display', 'initial value' and many more but nothing works the way I want.
