Quick Lookup - Error with Empty Default Value #960

Open ghost opened 3 years ago

ghost commented 3 years ago

I have a number of Quick Lookups on a page, on these Lookups I hide and show them based on some previous selections. The lookups use the Default Value field e.g. {!varWorkOrder.WorkOrderNumber}

I have found an issue where if I have a flow which loops me back to this page where the Quick Lookups are, I get an error which says

"Error element Detailed_Information (FlowScreen). The flow failed to access the value for varWorkOrder.WorkOrderNumber because it hasn't been set or assigned."

I only get this error when returning back to the screen and not on the initial loading of the page. AKA when the page first loaded varWorkOrder.WorkOrderNumber never had a value and it loaded fine but the second visit to the page I get the error.

Have you tried assigning {!varWorkOrder.WorkOrderNumber} to a flow variable and using that instead for your default value?

Thanks for the quick reply.

I'm not 100% sure what you mean. {!varWorkOrder.WorkOrderNumber} is a flow record variable (set to type Work Order) and it is set to the Default Value field. Depending on where the flow got launched from, this variable may or may not be ever populated with a value.

Try creating a new Text variable and use an Assignment node to assign {!varWorkOrder.WorkOrderNumber} to it. Then try to use the new variable as the default in the Lookup to see if it makes any difference in how the flow behaves.
