found the issue – I had some logic under preSave function cause the value to revert back.

[Rad]

yes it’s a single line text.

very strange, I’ve tried rearranging code and nothing seems to work. The save seems to be a random behavior.

Any thoughts?

[Rad]

I looked into the versioning and it doesn’t show any value change for this field. Hope adding a timer would help. It seems to work so far. this is the updated code.

case “btnSubmit”:
setFieldValue(“txtRequestStatus”,”Submitted”);
sendEmail(getFieldValue(“txtRequestStatus”));

// $(“input[id$=diidIOSaveItem]:last”).click();

setTimeout(function() {

// alert(“here”);
$(“input[id$=diidIOSaveItem]:last”).click();

}, 2000); //2 second

[Rad]

so, the order should be like below? First send email then save? I that the reason?

setFieldValue(“txtRequestStatus”,”Submitted”);
sendEmail(getFieldValue(“txtRequestStatus”));
$(“input[id$=diidIOSaveItem]:last”).click();

[Rad]

it seemed like there was a delay in setFieldValue(“txtRequestStatus”,”Submitted”);, so added timer to excute Save after 2 sec. Have you seen this issue with delay in setting a variable?

case “btnSubmit”:
setFieldValue(“txtRequestStatus”,”Submitted”);

//$(“input[id$=diidIOSaveItem]:last”).click();

setTimeout(function() {

// alert(“here”);
$(“input[id$=diidIOSaveItem]:last”).click();

if(getFieldValue(“txtRequestStatus”) == “Submitted”){
sendEmail(getFieldValue(“txtRequestStatus”));
};
}, 2000);

break;

[Rad]

superb! works great with the changes. thanks again for your patience and prompt responses!

1. I do have the showApprovalStatus already added to my custom javascript.
2. In addition, I believe statusBannerIcon is needed since you’re referencing it in showApprovalStatus?
3. I see where approvalWfStatus is being used, just need to know where its defined.

[Rad]

Could it be a version issue again? This is what I’ve:

that’s how I have it. here’s the file I am using.

[Rad]

this looks perfect, my formatting seems way off in the email. I’ll try to dig into it, thanks

[Rad]

I got it from -> https://spjsblog.com/2017/08/19/dffs-example-training-application-list-with-approval/

but here’s the CSS:

.statusBannerIcon{
display:inline-block;
font-size:35px;
margin:5px;
color:#cccccc;
}
.approvalWfLabel{
font-size:18px;
font-weight:bold;
border-bottom:1px silver solid;
padding:0 0 10px 5px;
}
.customHeading{
background-color: #1B619B;
color: #EFF2F6;
font-size:16px;
padding:5px 10px;
}

Below Function being called from “Click function name” within the tab:

//create Status numbers on top of the form
function showApprovalStatus(){
var b = [], label, labelColor, status, spjsStatusArr = [
{“label”:”New”,”icon”:”①”,”color”:”#0000FF”},
{“label”:”Draft”,”icon”:”②”,”color”:”#1E90FF”},
{“label”:”Cancelled”,”icon”:”③”,”color”:”#FFD700″},
{“label”:”Submitted”,”icon”:”④”,”color”:”#3CB371″},
{“label”:”Returned”,”icon”:”⑤”,”color”:”#e81123″},
{“label”:”Review”,”icon”:”⑥”,”color”:”#0000FF”},
{“label”:”Approved”,”icon”:”⑦”,”color”:”#107c10″}
];
status = getFieldValue(“txtRequestStatus”);
jQuery.each(spjsStatusArr,function(i,c){
b.push(“<div title='”+c.label+”‘ class=’statusBannerIcon'”);
if(status === c.label){
b.push(” style=’color:”+c.color+”‘”);
label = c.label;
currStatusIndex = i;
labelColor = c.color;
}
b.push(“‘>”+c.icon+”</div>”);
});
jQuery(“.approvalWfStatus”).html(b.join(“”));
jQuery(“.approvalWfLabel”).html(“<span style=’color:”+labelColor+”‘>Current status: “+label+”</span>”);
}
setTimeout(function(){
showApprovalStatus();
},500);
