Remove Collection Member Templates

  • Updated

The Remove Collection Member template allows users to create an alternate language template to remove a collection member. Similar to other templates, it is a user customized form of the existing "Remove Collection Member" action template.

Currently, you can use the built-in template as shown below by passing in a index number or using a custom UDF/Lookup function that would return the index.

By UDF or some other available function that would return an index example:

Using a custom remove collection member template is a more friendly way of communicating what is about to happen:

Menu Group

Scope

The scope of the template availability can be limited to only the context of the previously selected entity by checking "Available in rules and calculations for this entity." The availability can also be extended to those rule elements which have a reference to the previously selected entity by checking "Available in rules and calculations for entities referencing this entity."

Placeholders

The placeholders created in business language are configured here. For a detailed description of placeholders refer to "Configuring Placeholders".

Business Language

Business language to be displayed in the business language editor. Placeholders can be added to the template by enclosing them within $ symbols.

Collection Expression

Specifies the name of the collection to remove an item from.

Remove Index Expression

Specifies which item in the collection to remove. The value can either be a static value (like 2) or an expression that the rule engine will evaluate.

Please see About Expressions for more information on expression syntax.
