Duplicate Form Records in UACT Table

Description

When a user clicks a form's Submit button more than once, multiple records are created in the UACT table.

Cause

There are two possible reasons that multiple records are created.

• A user clicks the Save button or Submit button multiple times.
• A user clicks the Save button and Submit button immediately one after the other.

Affected Versions

All

Solution

• Disable the buttons using JavaScript at the time of clicking either of them. In Cora SeQuence 8.x, you should also enable the single-click feature.

Example

<script type="text/javascript">
  $( document ).ready(function() {
    $findByControlId("btnSave").set_enabled(true);
    $findByControlId("btnSubmit").set_enabled(true);
  });


  function disableButtons(sender, args) {
    $findByControlId("btnSave").set_enabled(false);
    $findByControlId("btnSubmit").set_enabled(false);
  }
</script>
