Activate a global form for an active member

Hello, i am trying to active a form every time i select a member of an iparts but i dont know how to do it, i think it is whit a rule that takes the shape i want when the member is active. I appreciate the help.

Hi @johannes_santos 

Can you share some images and the written steps of how your currently manually carrying out the workflow? This will help in figuring out how to automate the process.

In this case the idea is that when you select the member, the forms that are part of this member are activated, in this case i have 2 forms exclusive to this member 

So that people dont get confused, it would be good if the forms are only enabled for the member who applies

Hi @johannes_santos 

I'm not to sure if there is a good workflow here with ilogic forms and ilogic. Firstly ipart/iassembly factories don't support any modification in there member files. Modification can only be done in the factory file and really should be temporary in order to popupate the table. If the ipart/factory is to be used as a library file which is there design intent all modification should be done on the factory table and not through ilogic. 

Have you tried to generate the members and use the form afterwards? I suspect you will get errors in trying to do so.

I didnt know this part, thak you very mucha, if i tried to execuse the forms but i didnt let me, i got an error, although i would like to know if there is any way that when i select the member it will enable the form without having to go to the ilogic box. Thank you.

There is no built in event trigger for this operation. The only one available would be on open but this won't help. Because your using a manual operation it will be difficult to detect member changing. You could change the member by code using the change member ilogic snippet. Use "" for occurrence name so it can be used in the factory and then open the appropriate form. If you have 2024 or newer then you can close a form by code. In any case I think it would be too much work for no great benefit.

A okay if think that many things need to be done for something not so significant, thank you very much for your comments I will take them into account.
