Show/Hide Manager Approval
You have a flow and the first form has a Section for manager approval. The Section is hidden by default. Here is an example of a rule that makes the section visible in the second step of the flow which is a linked activity assigned to the manager role.
| Code Block |
|---|
if (form.load) {
var an = _data.getParameter ("flow.activity.name");
if (an === 'Manager'){
ManagerApproval.visible = true;
} else {
ManagerApproval.visible = false;
}

Let's take a look at a simple example. Users are instructed to enter a capital Y in a table if they are planning on calling a customer. The user enters the "Y" then tabs to the company name column. The minus icon for that row will disappear.
In this example, the name of the table control is CustomerTable and column 0 in the table is named ContactCustomer.
Here is the rule:
| Code Block |
|---|
for (var i=0; i<ContactCustomer.value.length; i++) {
if (ContactCustomer[i].value === "Y") {
CustomerTableItem[i].deletable = false;
} else {
CustomerTableItem[i].deletable = true;
}
} |
