field value not being passed from form to form in process

Forms Version 10

HI,

I created a form, copied that form and then modified it by creating new fields that the next user can fill out while reviewing the original, now read only, field values. Pretty typical.

While designing the the process and forms I realized I needed to add a new radio button field to the original form, then added that field to the second form via the variable list.

Now when I test the process, the radio button selection made in the first form is not being passed to the second form. All other values are. I have double and triple checked to make sure that I have not accidentally created a new variable.

I have saved the first form to the repository and the selection is recorded in the pdf. And I wrote the value of the selection off to an external database. and that is working as well.

Any hints as to where the trouble might lay?

Hi Zane,

After the submitting the first and second form, can you check the instance history page and see if the variable value gets updated?

If the value gets reverted to blank after submit the second form, can you check if there is custom script that changes value on the second form?

The problem was in my workflow that was saving my value to the database.

I was setting an output parameter to "null" for several fields that I didn't mean to. 

 

Oddly though, that was the only field that was being affected. The other's kept their values in the next form.
