Add a Same Page action

Use the Same Page action to initialize a value for a field or give a default value at runtime.

You can specify the source and target fields; the value from a source field or variable is populated at the target field as the default value.

  1. On the Form Modeling bar, click Actions.
  2. On the Actions page, click Add Generic Add.
  3. On the Type list, select Same Page.
  4. Enter a Name and Description for the action.
  5. Optionally, configure a unique action for each language separately. See Configure multilingual actions for a form or control for more information.
  6. To specify the item to change at runtime:

    1. Consume the required target item (form field, form variable or global variable) in the Target box.

    2. Consume the required form fields, form variable, or global variables, or provide a static value for source in the Source/Value box.

    3. Click Add Generic Add.

  7. Click OK.

    The newly created action is added to the table.

  8. Click Save.
  9. Associate the action with the control to trigger this action. To call the Same Page action upon form load, associate the action with the form. See Associate an action with a form or control for more information.
