When one is in a flow, there are times where one would like to simply validate the form data without actually completing the assignment.

Image RemovedImage Added

Save as Draft button, by default, will only save the form data without validation.

...

  1. To create a new button, open the form in the form builder.
  2. Create a new section at the bottom of the form.
  3. Edit the section's load binder, set it to Bean Shell Form Binder.

  4. In the Bean Shell Form Binder, add in the following code.

    import org.joget.apps.form.lib.SubmitButton;

Element saveButton = new SubmitButton();
saveButton.setProperty(FormUtil.PROPERTY_ID, "customSaveAsDraft");
saveButton.setProperty("label", saveButtonLabel);
formActions.add(saveButton);


Section section = element;
ArrayList columns = (ArrayList) section.getChildren();


Column column = columns.get(0);
column.setProperty("horizontal", "true");
column.setChildren(formActions);


//add a custom html to fix the layout issue
Element html = new CustomHTML();
String script = "<script>$(document).ready(function(){";
