Embedded Component - Dropdown - On Value Changed event doesn't trigger first time.

[sunil_madgula]

Hi,

I have a created a EC to handle dynamic dropdowns for 3 different fields. BCO + BCC & views are and all the values are maintained in fine tuning. In the inport I defined couple of event handlers and assigned the event to trigger the absl script to the first dropdown field "OnValueChanged" event. The issue I am facing is, the dropdown from the first field doesn't work for the first time ( I am not talking about on load of the screen), just the first time I select a value it won't trigger the event. But then I change the value again the event gets triggered and all the logic to fill the values on the dependent dropdowns work. So it is as if the onvaluechanged event doesn't trigger the first time when the value transitions from a blank --> option in dropdown.

Any ideas on how to make it work for the first time?

Thanks

Sunil

Hi,

May be one option you can try if it works:

Try and set Require Roundtrip is set to True for the data field that is bound to code list.

Thanks & regards
