Stop Transaction Without the Pop-up Error Message


Sometimes developer wants to avoid ERROR Pop-up message and display error in text field on page instead.


By Default PeopleSoft show Pop-up when you use ERROR command.


Here are the workaround steps that prevent data saving without error popping message on component. We can also use this approach on self service pages.


·        Open Component in App Designer and navigate to properties

·        Go to Internet tab

·        Checked off Disabled Toolbar that prevent showing delivered save button.

o   If you want to hide only Save button in the toolbar and disable the Alt+1 (Save) hot key. Go to Use tab and checked off Disabled Saving Page and follow below steps to call DOSAVENOW()
·        Create your own button named “Save” and place on page

·        On FieldChange of Save button, do your processing and if successful then use DOSAVENOW() method or display error in page text field.
