Refreshing the xpage document & showing the computed fields immediately without closing & reopening the xpage document

Question

I am working with xpages and need a unique number to be generated for each document. After saving the document, I want the user to be on the same page viewing the generated number. For this I have used the a action group on the submit button - 1) first action is a simple action which is saving the document. 2) Next action is script editor where I am calling my number generation agent 3) The last one is a simple action which is changing the current document mode from Edit to Read so that the user is still on the same xpage document after saving. But I see that the document is saved properly and also changed to read mode but I cant see the number generated. But if I close the document & open it again I see that the number is generated. I want this number to be shown without closing & reopening the document. Any help is appreciated.

Answer 1

If you're updating the backend Document datasource, you'll need to either fully reload the page or close and re-open. Try setting the unique reference on the dominoDocument datasource and re-saving that. Alternatively, build the relevant URL to the XPage with the relevant documentId parameter and redirect accordingly.

Answer 2

You can put a Full Upload at your onClick event or a partial Upload.

With the partial Update will update just one element of your page, if your computed fields are inside this element they will be updated.
