Display Field Value Input Dialog

Summary

Display the dialog to input the field value.

How to Use

Show a dialog to enter values for the fields in the records currently displayed on the page. It is possible to enter multiple field values in a single dialog.

When a user enters a field value in the dialog and clicks OK to close the dialog, the entered value is set in the field. If the user clicks Cancel, the value will not be set.

The set of field values will be treated as follows:

  • In the new record or edit record page, the entered values are reflected directly in the fields. The record has not been saved yet.
  • In the record details or print screen, the record will be automatically updated with the entered values. The entered values will not be reflected on the page. To reflect the values on the page, add the action “Reload Page” with the condition “When Record is Auto-Saved.”
  • In the record list page, this action is only available “Before Record Saved Excluding Deleted.” If used otherwise, it may result in an error or the input value may not be set in the record.

The following are the differences from “Display Input String Dialog.”

  • Whether the value is set in the field:
    • The “Display Field Value Input Dialog” action sets the value entered in the dialog immediately to the field.
    • The “Display Input String Dialog” does not set the value entered in the dialog to the field. By using another action, such as “[Auto Input to Field[,” the value can later be set to the field.
  • Allow multiple inputs:
    • The “Display Field Value Input Dialog” allows users to enter multiple field values simultaneously.
    • The “Display Input String Dialog” is limited to entering a single field value.
  • Action result value:
    • “Display Field Value Input Dialog”: The result value of the action cannot be referred to in an expression.
    • “Display Input String Dialog”: The result value of the action can be referred to in an expression.

When entering the date and time, it is necessary to follow the specified format. The OK button in the dialog is unclickable due to formatting errors.

  • Date format: YYYY-MM-DD uses four digits for the year, two digits for the month, and two digits for the day, all separated by hyphens.
  • Time format: HH:MM represents the hours and minutes using two digits, separated by a colon, such as 09:30. Seconds are not available.

Parameters

Set Message Text, Input Field, OK Button Label, Cancel Button Label, and Check Required.

Message Text

Enter the text to be displayed in the message part of the dialog.

Input Field

Select the fields to enter values.

You can specify multiple fields and also set the order. It is acceptable to select only one field, rather than multiple fields. You can select an unlimited number of fields, but if you choose too many, the dialog may overflow off the page.

This parameter accepts the following field types:

  • Text
  • Number
  • Date
  • Time

This parameter does not accept fields that are inside tables.

OK Button Label

You can change the label displayed on the OK button using this parameter.

Cancel Button Label

You can change the label displayed on the Cancel button using this parameter.

Check Required

Select which fields are required.

  • Allow blanks in all fields:
    • No fields are required.
    • Clicking “OK” is permitted, even if all the input fields are empty.
  • Make only required fields mandatory:
    • Only the fields designated as required in the Kintone app form settings will be marked as mandatory.
    • The “OK” button is disabled if any required fields are not filled in. The “OK” button is clickable even if the optional fields are empty, as long as all the required fields are filled in.
  • Make all fields mandatory:
    • All fields are required. Fields that are not marked as required in the Kinone form app settings will also be required.
    • The “OK” button will disabled if any fields are left empty.

Support for other company plugins

krewSheet

This action can be used when a record is identifiable as a single line, such as “When adding a row in krewSheet.”

Unlike the standard record list page, krewSheet allows for saving multiple rows at once, so it cannot be used with the condition “Before Record Saved Excluding Deleted.”

Calendar Plus

This action can be used when the record can be identified.

For example, you can configure additional items to be entered based on specific conditions, such as “[when a date or time is selected in Calendar Plus[” or “[Before Record Saved Excluding Deleted[.” However, if you are using the condition of “when a date or time is selected in Calendar Plus,” ensure that you set “Cancel Calendar Plus standard behavior” to “Calendar Plus standard behavior” to avoid conflicts with the standard input dialog of Calendar Plus.

Precautions

  • Even if you have turned on “Hide field name” in the Kintone app form settings, the field name will be displayed in the dialog for “Display Field Value Input Dialog.”

Restrictions

  • You cannot set fields for records that are not displayed on the current page.

  • In the mobile view, manual input for the date field is not available. Only calendar input is supported.

  • If the “Display Field Value Input Dialog” action is executed when another dialog is already open and the user has not yet closed that dialog, the already open dialog takes precedence, and the subsequently executed “Display Field Value Input Dialog” is ignored. In this case, the result of the “Display Field Value Input Dialog” action will be treated as canceled.
