Data Not Coming Through to Forms Template

Forms

Updated May 21, 2014

asked on April 3, 2014

I have a form that I created in Forms. We use JS to make two fields read-only (become read only after data is transfered in via URL (ie. ro input). When I add a Save to Laserfiche service task, assign the correct field variables and run the workflow, the saved document does not contain the two read only fields.

Anyone encounter this? Have a work around?

$(document).ready(function () {
$('.ro input').attr('readonly','True');
})

A little more information here that I found when building a demo recently; it may not be relevant in this case, but good to know nonetheless:

If you have javascript calculating values and entering them into the fields or a database lookup populating the fields, you need to make sure that the Javascript is marking the fields as read only AFTER the value is populated. If the field is marked as read only before the values are populated, Forms will not pass that value to the template.
