Hi Aala
Are you using the sql database? Does the table your smartobject is based off has a primary key? if yes then you need to retrieve the primary key(PK) of the row(employee in the picker) you are wanting to update. Once you have the pk you just need to configure a rule to ‘execute a smartobject method’ and then choose your smartobject and ‘update’ method and then configure the fields.
Hopefully, you have what you need to make it work. if not please let me know
still have the same problem in the first photo there are two records I want only one record to appear with the updated data additionally I don’t have update method and I tried to configure it using save ,but it didn’t work
save method should do what update does.
Can you share the configuration screenshot of input properties of your save method rule? Is ‘employees’ smartobject based off a sql table? is ‘employee code’ the unique primary key of the table?
I tried again and it worked thanks for your help
