Hi, I need guidance on the best way to configure multistep forms in Power Pages.
I have two related tables:
Table1 with over 100 columns
Table2, which is connected to Table1 via a referential relationship.
I created a page with a multistep form called MultiStep_Form_New
, which handles record creation for both tables. It includes:
Form_Table1_Insert
(Insert mode for Table1)
Form_Table2_Insert
(Insert mode for Table2)
For updating records, I created a second page with a multistep form called MultiStep_Form_Edit
, which includes:
Form_Table1_Edit
(Edit mode for Table1)
Form_Table2_Edit
(Edit mode for Table2)
I’m wondering:
Is this the correct approach for implementing edit functionality using multistep forms in Power Pages?
Is it possible to programmatically switch form steps between Insert and Edit mode, depending on the completion status of the data?
My challenge: Sometimes Form_Table1_Insert
is completed, but Form_Table2_Insert
is not. This results in scenarios where I need to edit data in Table1 but still insert data in Table2. Is there a recommended way to handle this with mixed modes in the same multistep form (e.g., Form_Table1_Edit
+ Form_Table2_Insert
)?
Any best practices or alternative approaches would be appreciated. Thank you!
