Adventures in Groovy – Part 15: Returning Errors (RTP Edition)

Advanced, Enterprise Planning and Budgeting Cloud Services (ePBCS), Groovy, Groovy Calculations, Groovy Series, Planning and Budgeting Cloud Services (PBCS)

Introduction

One of the huge benefits that available in Groovy Calculations is the ability to interact with a user, validate data, and act on the validation. Now, we can interrupt form saves, stop Run Time Prompts from continuing, and communicate information back to the user.

This may sound repetitive if you have read part 13 and part 14, and you can skip to the code example to learn more about run time prompt validation. If not, you must have an understanding of the validation functions and the components of the messageBundle. Read more

Adventures in Groovy – Part 12: Learning and Testing Groovy Outside of PBCS

Advanced, Enterprise Planning and Budgeting Cloud Services (ePBCS), Groovy, Groovy Calculations, Groovy Series, Planning and Budgeting Cloud Services (PBCS)

Introduction

For people that are new to Groovy/Java, testing functions that Groovy provides can be a tedious and time consuming process. Learning anything is. Trying to do this with the wrong tools compounds it. I have seen some people give up and walk away from trying to improve applications because they struggle with the Groovy Calculations and the complexity it introduces to go beyond some of the basics, just because they are using a hammer when they need a screwdriver.

Adventures in Groovy – Part 10: Validating Form Data

Advanced, Enterprise Planning and Budgeting Cloud Services (ePBCS), Groovy, Groovy Calculations, Groovy Series, Planning and Budgeting Cloud Services (PBCS)

Introduction

One of the huge frustrations I have with Planning is the fact that you haven’t been able to stop a user from saving data that didn’t validate since Smart View was released and Data Forms could be opened in Excel. Prior to that, the forms could be customized with JavaScript and the form save could be interrupted and cells flagged. Well, thanks to Groovy Calculations, it is back, and every bit as flexible.
