Hi Sita

There are a couple of possibilities here:

Just a general note - When you copy a button from one form to another it does 
NOT automatically copy the workflow attached to that button.  There seems to be 
a bug in the Admin tool whereby the active links attached to the original 
button are still displayed on the Active Links tab of the copied button after 
you have pasted it to the new form.  If you save the form, close it and reopen 
it and then look at the new button, you will see that the ‘old’ active links 
are no longer attached to it.

You will either need to create copies of the active links to attach to the new 
button, or share the existing ALs with the second form (assuming you have 
retained the same fieldId.

In your situation, you are copying a button from one view to another of the 
same form?  The ‘correct’ way to do this is to go to the Views tab of the 
button and add it to the view you want it in.  If instead you have done a copy 
and paste from one view to another, you will have been prompted to make a 
decision whether to add the existing button to this view, or create a new 
button. If you chose to add the existing button to the view, you will still 
have the existing workflow attached to the button.  If you chose to create a 
new button, it will have no workflow attached as described above.

If you have the same button and workflow in both views, working in one view and 
not the other, you need to look at the workflow itself and see if there is 
anything there that might stop it firing, such as $VUI$ != “HPD:Helpdesk 
Support-ReadOnly” or something similar.

<This is a resend, the earlier email with attached logs do not get thru ☹>

Dunno why the save button do not works. 

I had copied it from the HPD:Helpdesk Support view to HPD:Helpdesk ReadOnly 
View. 

When I double click the copied SAVE button, I can see that the related active 
links are attached. When I update something to the form and click the SAVE 
button via mid-tier, nothing happen. Why is this so? 

Any pointers?

Thanks for replying Lunar.

I had copied the SAVE button from HPD:Helpdesk support form. When I paste the 
button into HPD:Helpdesk Support-ReadOnly form, all the underlying active links 
got copied as well but I really wonder why after clicking the SAVE button, 
nothing happen ☹

When I double click the SAVE button properties which I had copied, the Selected 
Active Links are :-
(2)RSM:GenericSave
(10)HPD:HPD-cmdSave01
(11)HPD:HPD-cmdSave02

Related Workflow:
HPD:HPD-cmdSave01
HPD:HPD-cmdSave02
RSM:GenericSave
RSM:SC-OnWinOpen01
RSM:SC-OnWinOpen02

Sorry my system info :-
AR version 6.3
AR Helpdesk 6.0
AR SLA 6.0

Subject: SAVE button in Helpdesk Display-Only form
Dear Listers,
I had copied the Save Button from the main HPD:Helpdesk form into the helpdesk 
display form, but the SAVE button do not works. 
I would like the SAVE button to save some of the edited fields in the display 
form? So that when support staff login via web, they can view the helpdesk 
display form only and they can only update the 2 fields that meant for editing. 
The rest of the fields are in Read only mode so when they click SAVE button, 
those 2 fields will get updated. 
Appreciate if anyone can assist me on this. 
Best Regards, 
Siti Hawa Bee
