Hi, we found that with V12.6, coming from V10, there is no alert for "pending data entry" anymore, in case you re-open a screen using a procedure. Screen close and refresh (F5) is working in terms of producing this alert, but not opening it again via procedure.

Is this a known issue and will that be fixed with V14?

Thanks and best regards, Pascal

    Hi @Pascal W. ,

    I think you have the default setting of opening the screen in the new tab, which is why you are not seeing the "Pending Data Entry" notification on the screen that you are making a data entry. If you enable the "Same tab" in the "Go to Screen" step in your capsule procedure you should see the "Pending Data entry" notification on the same screen.

    Hi @Samson Sunny,

    thanks for your hint but the "open in new tab" is on purpose.

    We have a dataview with a summary/overview of products, using inline buttons to open a detail screen with data entry per product. The user then returns to the overview, selects another product … and so on. Going back and forth in the same tab does not really make sense for a workflow like this, going through a list of products.

    The thing is, that the alert was there in B10, but apparently B12 (Web) does not recognize the "pending data entry" when a screen is refreshed via procedure.
