I have created a simple cash register and using a portal to add items via a barcode scanner reader and by using Exit Script [Result: False] it is automatically moved to another portal row i want to know if there is a way to cancel the Exit Script [Result: False] with a command button to validate the transaction.

 

Thanks to share your ideas.

You might want to have a look at the types of triggers:

In particular, notice that some triggers run Pre (before) the event, and some run Post (after). If you are using OnObjectSave, for example, you might try switching to OnObjectValidate. That should keep the cursor in the same field when you Exit(False).

More Details..

 

System and setup a portal to input Scan barcode number to the portal row one by one via a Script Triggers as per below

 

Go to Field[POS::BarcodeID]

 

Go to portal row[Last]

 

Exit Script [Result: False]

 

 

And it's working well.

 

I want to know how i can end the transaction by cancelling the Exit Script [Result: False]?

 

 

Now i am stuck on the Exit Script [Result: False] by waiting for another scan barcode command.

 

I will need to be able to cancel the Exit Script [Result: False] to be able to complete the transaction and print a receipt.

Which script trigger are you using? OnExit?

OnObjectExit.

See my previous post.
OnObjectExit triggers when you exit a field, even if you haven’t made changes.
OnObjectValidate triggers when you exit a field after making changes. If you haven't made changes, it won't trigger, and if I understand what you're trying to do, this should allow your completion script to run when you click the button.
