Instead of having these posts everywhere, I’m going to make one big compendium of the
bpm components in App Studio starting top-down from the components list. Some of these won’t warrant
baq much of anything such as the column component, but I’m going to add them regardless. To keep it
somewhat organized and linkable, I’m going to do a separate reply for each component. This will take

Combo
Reusable Set the data item field that the items in the combo are sorted by.
Sort
Combo Example: PartNum
This doesn’t seem to fully function. This is used to define a list of
items to display in the combo. The caption says a string array defined

as ["Key1","Key2"] but that breaks it. Just type in Key1, Key2.
Combo Columns
HOWEVER–it only displays the values of the first item in the list. (Fig.

When more than one column is defined in the Retrieve Columns
Reusable Column
property, you can use this to define their titles. This has no effect with

This one has issues. In the TextField/ValueField used to define
what shows up in the combo and what’s used for the data binding,
you need to define the column name (Key2, ShortChar01) however,
when using a static list, those should be Display/Value respectively. If
you have the column names, the static list items don’t display
Advanced Append List
properly. If you have Display/Value defined, the columns from the
service do not display properly. Additionally, the static list items
display regardless of this checkbox, so it doesn’t really do anything.
WEEEEE! Any who–the idea of this is it’s supposed to append the
static list items to the returned service data.
Set the selected value for the combo. This automatically sets the
Advanced Selected Value EpBinding to whatever you put here. Incidentally, it does not
display anything in the combo. (Fig. J)
This is to be used if you defined a service, but not a service method.

Currency Box
Allows user to have the currency field displayed along with the amount. By default, the currency gets
toggled as per value selected from the Currency Selector Control.
Skip to main content So far as I can tell, this will not do the exchange calculation for you. You will need to create events to
populate each binding when the currency value changes. For instance, if you set the currency field to

be $500.00 USD, you will need to have an event that converts it to Euros (or whatever) and stores it
in the Currency Box’s Document Currency binding field. Then, when you switch the Currency Selector
control between USD and EUR, it will toggle between each value in the Currency Box Field. This is a
very manual control for setup…

This doesn’t seem to do anything? It’s supposed to set the
active currency for the control by default, but noooop. Valid
Active Currency options include BASE, DOC, RPT1, RPT2, RPT3, GLOBAL, and
Advanced
Type Unspecified (It annoys me that the rest are capitalized, but
Unspecified is not. I guess someone forgot to specify a consistent
format )
Sets the format for the field by overriding the extended
properties Format. Only half works. It only takes into
consideration the “>” and “9” options It doesn’t give a hoot what
Advanced Mask
you put for the separators–yer gittin’ commas… and no decimals.
And it only works on the base field. <Insert Nathan Fillion lost for
words GIF> (Fig. D)
This forces the control to show the base value. Or dooooes it?
Advanced Show Base
Narrator: It does not.
Advanced Show Symbol Enable to show the currency symbol. (Fig. E)
Enable this to make the Currency Selector useless. Changing the
Advanced Disable Toggle Currency Selector will no longer toggle the Currency Box
between your base and document currencies.

**After thought: I’m not sure why the Active Currency Type property shows anything except BASE
and DOC as there are no bindings for RPT1, RPT2, etc. like there were in days of old. Still seems
like quite a nonsensical control.

This control is busted. I can’t get it to do anything. It doesn’t even react–as in no console or network
activity of any kind. At all.
I will outline the properties and what they should do, but don’t expect this one to work. Or–if you do
get it working, come tell me what TF I’m missing.

Look at that. That boxed line there. The Rest Service.

Do you see that property anywhere? No? Me neither. But has that ever stopped me? …Nope! So, I
went and added the line in myself in the JSON and pushed it back into the DB. Did it fix the control?
Also nope. Whatever. I’m over it. I am NOT patient enough to submit this one to support. To walk

Get the ID of your Link Combo

Create a new event

The trigger is going to be:

Type Control
Hook onLinkClick (This is not in the dropdown… you just have to magically know this!! )
Target The ID you just copied.

Put in a Switch. The value for the switch will be %value% to get whatever was just clicked. These
values will correspond to the IDs you set for each Phrase item. The action off of that case statement
will be row-update.

In the row update, set the Binding to DynamicPanel.Text1. This will be used in the next widget.
Set the value to the binding of your Phrase item. For the operator, bind it to TransView.ExOper. Or
don’t. I dunno. That’s just what I found Epicor doing when I reverse engineered it.

The switch fails without this. Make sure to do an OnSuccess on your row-update widget. Throw a
console-write after so that if you need to rearrange downstream widgets, you don’t have to start
over. Initialize DyanmicPanel.Text1 and TransView.ExOper with what’s in our bindings presently.

Now attach some dynamic-panel-open widgets.

Give it a title.

Here’s the code for a textbox component. Note that it’s using the DynamicPanel.Text1. If you bound
that to something else, change it here too.

[
{
"controlTypeId": "ErpTextBox",
"controlModel": {
"labelText": "Enter Text",
"epBinding": "DynamicPanel.Text1"
}
}
]

You can technically do the same for the operator (Make sure to change the binding, though), but
Epicor got fancy with theirs. Here’s the code for that:

[
{
"controlTypeId": "ErpSelectionList",
"controlModel": {
"epBinding": "TransView.ExOper",
"items": [
{
"id": "+",
"text": "+ Addition",
"selected": true
},
{

"text": "- Subtraction"
},
{
"id": "*",
"text": "* Multiplication"
},
{

"text": "/ Division"
}
],
"uiMode": "singleSelect",
"valuePrimitive": true,
"mode": "SingleSelect",
"draggable": true
}
}
]

On the panel’s OnOK response, set up more row-updates to send that info back to the page
bindings.

Now you have the values. Or something. Create a button to do something with that formula. I don’t
know. This control was stupid.

It visualizes whatever the dataset is that comes back from the BO, but yes–I’ve seen it visualize 3

maxNumOfCards to suit your needs.

Appendix

DataViews
Create a dataview to hold the column bindings and to bind your grid to.

Slider
Create a slider or some other method for data input. All fields in the slider are bound to the
“TransView” variation of the previous dataview. For instance, cdv_Calander.StartDate =
TransView.StartDate on the slider. Don’t bind them to the cdv_Calander or it will create records upon
opening.

Don’t forget to add some buttons. (Delete is unnecessary if you make the Scheduler editable)

Events
ce_calendar_onDoubleClick
Double click event to add a new item to the calendar. This initializes the TransView fields and then
opens the slider.

I had to do some JS magic to get the fields to do what I wanted.

Here are each of the row-update items:

EpBinding: TransView.StartDate
Expression: new Date(new Date("%startDateTime%").setHours(0,0,0,0))
Notes: %startDateTime% is a built-in variable that will get the start date and time from the scheduler
when you double click. For instance, if you click 10/14/2023 @ 1:00AM, the variable will yield 2023-
10-14T01:00:00Z (24 hour time). The setHours(0,0,0,0) is to zero out the time and only provide
the date since I’m setting the time in a different control.

EpBinding: TransView.StartTime
Expression: (new Date("%startDateTime%").getHours() * 3600) + (new
Date("%startDateTime%").getMinutes() * 60) + (new
Date("%startDateTime%").getSeconds())
Notes: This is converting the hours, minutes, and seconds into a seconds from midnight value.

EpBinding: TransView.EndDate
Expression: new Date(new Date("%endDateTime%").setHours(0,0,0,0))
Notes: %endDateTime% is a built-in variable that will get the end date and time in 30 minute
increments from the scheduler when you double click. For instance, if you click 10/14/2023 @
1:00AM, the variable will yield 2023-10-14T01:30:00Z (24 hour time). The setHours(0,0,0,0) is
to zero out the time and only provide the date since I’m setting the time in a different control.

EpBinding: TransView.EndTime
Expression: (new Date("%endDateTime%").getHours() * 3600) + (new
Skip to main content Date("%endDateTime%").getMinutes() * 60) + (new

10/15/24, 4:59 PM Kinetic Control Compendium - Experts' Corner - Epicor User Help Forum
Date("%endDateTime%").getSeconds())
Notes: This is converting the hours, minutes, and seconds into a seconds from midnight value.

EpBinding: TransView.AllDay
Value: false

EpBinding: TransView.Description
Value: ""

EpBinding: TransView.ExceptionLabel
Value: "Say Words"

EpBinding: TransView.StartDateTime
Value: "%startDateTime%"
Notes: This is my unique ID for column binding. Again, might be better to use a GUID, but I just
followed what Epicor did and it seems to work fine.

ce_SliderOK
This event adds the new records to the dataview and subsequently adds the visual to the calendar.

Again, some more JS magic for the row-update.

EpBinding: TransView.StartDate
Expression: new Date((new Date("{TransView.StartDate}")).setSeconds((new Date("
{TransView.StartDate}")).getSeconds() + {TransView.StartTime}));
Notes: This is adding the seconds from the time control to the date control.

EpBinding: TransView.EndDate
Expression: new Date((new Date("{TransView.EndDate}")).setSeconds((new Date("
{TransView.EndDate}")).getSeconds() + {TransView.EndTime}));
Notes: This is adding the seconds from the time control to the date control.

row-add
DataView: cdv_Calander (or whatever yours is called)
Values:

{
"ExceptionLabel": "{TransView.ExceptionLabel}",
"ModifiedDay": "{TransView.StartDateTime}",
"AllDay": "{TransView.AllDay}",
"Description": "{TransView.Description}",
"StartDate": "{TransView.StartDate}",
"EndDate": "{TransView.EndDate}"
}

ce_SliderCancel
Just closes the slider without modifying data.

ce_SliderDelete
Again, this is unnecessary with the editable button, but here it is for demonstration purposes.

Tab
Allows a user to add a tabstrip where multiple tabs can be added.

**Use a Panel Card Stack for this if in 2023.2+ (See clarification below)

Clarification from @bconner :

bconner:

Bonus thing to know about tabstrip is we did not really intend it to be used on the page body it
was for inside-card data organization but we didn’t prohibit the use on the page body therefore
folks are using it in a way that doesn’t work as well as we’d like. Epicor has used it also but will
be replacing it with our intended solution.

bconner:

Our intended solution for this is in 2023.2 where you can join cards together into a group in studio
and we strongly recommend using that instead of placing tabstrips on the page body like you are
showing here. This will make more sense in 2024.1 - users will be able to group and ungroup
cards in personalization, but not if you have built a custom tabstrip layout.

See Panel Card Stacks for this.

Just ran across this thread…

bconner Brian Conner Epicor Employee Always vNext Oct '2023

Bonus thing to know about tabstrip is we did not really intend it to be used on the page body it was for
inside-card data organization but we didn’t prohibit the use on the page body therefore folks are using
it in a way that doesn’t work as well as we’d like. Epicor has used it also but will be replacing it with
our intended solution.

Our intended solution for this is in 2023.2 where you can join cards together into a group in studio
and we strongly recommend using that instead of placing tabstrips on the page body like you are
showing here. This will make more sense in 2024.1 - users will be able to group and ungroup cards in
personalization, but not if you have built a custom tabstrip layout.

Thanks! This is a workable solution. Alas, it also scales the rev field larger so it wastes a lot of space
on a field that is typically only a couple characters, but I guess that’s the theme in Kinetic.

Website Widget
Okay, so there are two of these.
One is in Toolbox > Components > WebSite “Widigit” Control (not my spelling, don’t hurt me). We’ll
call this one Web1.
The other is in Toolbox > Widgets > Website Widget. We’ll call this Web2.

Web1 works for displaying and interacting with a website, but does not take parameters in the URL.
Web2 does the same as Web1, but also allows a user to pass in parameters.

The properties are the same, so I will only be going over the Web2 one since it can do more.

@hmwillett the reason I ask is cause on the issue material screen in the IM dataview there are
columns for on hand quantity and on hand UM for the FROM location you are issuing from but they
aren’t bound to anything on the form so users can’t see them.

I’d like to add them and I feel like the optimal control would be the same control they use for this on

Honestly Hannah, Epicor should pay you for your efforts and integrate all of this into the Application

sifting through it and removing useless properties that don’t work from Application Studio…

I don’t see it documented so I believe it is not possible - Can I specify the number format on a
ComboBox bound to a decimal field?

Issue: We have a User Code containing a string ID of “1.0”. The drop-down value displays that way,
but is stored (in my bound numeric field) as 1, therefore, when the record is retrieved, the value
displays as “1”. Only when the combobox is interacted with do I see the “1.0”.

I know I can specify the display format of a number field/box control, but are you aware of an option
to do this with a ComboBox?

My fall-back is to recreate this functionality using a text field - if I can’t keep the numeric field.

No, I don’t believe there’s a way to format the combo box.

Thanks. I kinda knew that, but wanted confirmation from the expert!

Skip to main content Is it possible to fill this list dynamically? From View. Binding does not seem to work.

If you want to have the entries of a combo box be taken from a dataview, you would set it up the
following way.

Under Reusable Combo, you enter the dataview in View Name and if you have a column to sort on
you enter it under Sort.

Under Advanced you enter the Drop Down Style, Data Mode, Text Field, and Value Field.

Hi John.
Question was about List Box not Combo Box

jkane John Kane Leader Prod: 8.03.410 | Pilot: Cloud SaaS 20d

I did not see that. I believe you want to use Selection List instead of List Box.

pawel.malicki Paweł 11.2.200.0 20d

In the first post it is stated that Selection List is on version 2023.2.3.

We’re on 2022.2.35 and I can see Selection List control and I can use it with static list. Can it be that
Skip to main content this whole section of settings is just not working?

Potentially. Kinetic is definitely not in a “finished” state.

You show your form color as something other than the Epicor picked color in this example. Are you
setting that using this color picker? If so, what binding are you using to do so?

hmwillett Hannah Willett 🏳️‍🌈⚧ Kittens and Rainbows Prod: 2023.1 | Test: 2024.2 13d

No–it’s a StyleBot Chrome extension.

But bummer. I have a request to visibly change the form depending on which Plant the user is in. My
thought was to change those control colors.
