OnPreStageChange event (Client API reference)

  • Artigo

This event occurs Before the stage of a business process flow control changes. This event occurs after the user selects the Next Stage, Move to previous stage or Set Active Stage buttons in the user interface or when a developer uses the formContext.data.process.moveNext, formContext.data.process.movePrevious, or formContext.data.process.setActiveStage methods.

Note

The OnPreStageChange event is supported only on Unified Interface.

From within a web resource script registered to the onPreStageChange event, a developer can invoke the following on the executionContext object passed into the web resource script:

executionContext.getEventArgs().preventDefault();

When you invoke preventDefault:

  • The stage navigation will not be processed. The process instance will remain on the original stage.
  • In a cross-table navigation, the form of the table of the destination stage will not open.
  • The save of the main form will not be processed. If the main form was in a dirty state, it would remain in a dirty state.
  • Any web resources that registered onStageChange will not be invoked.

An execution context object is passed to event handlers for this event. You can use the getEventArgs method to retrieve an object that has the following methods:

  • getDirection: Returns a string that is either Next or Previous to show the direction of the stage change.
  • getStage: Returns a stage object. Except when the navigation moves to a new table, the stage returned represents the destination stage object—that is, the next active stage. When the navigation moves to a new table, the stage is the stage being navigated from—that is, the previous active stage object. More information: Stage methods.
