Input Parameter Reference​

ParameterDescriptionSupports TokensDefaultRequired
Select ModuleThe Tabs module whose popup to close. Pick it from the list, or click EXPR and enter an expression that returns the module's ID, for example [TabsModuleId].Yesempty stringYes

What happens when it runs​

The server sends the instruction to the browser, and the browser hides the popup. No further actions run.

Closing only hides the popup. The page isn't refreshed, and the forms in the popup aren't reset. The next time the popup opens, the forms in its active tab are initialized again.

In Listings​

On a listing button with Client Button turned on, use the client-side Close Tabs Popup action instead. It has the same parameter and closes the popup in the browser without a request to the server. See Item Buttons and Root Buttons.

Considerations​

  • No error if it's already closed. If the popup isn't open, or the Tabs module isn't set to open as a modal, nothing happens.
  • Nothing else is refreshed. Listings or forms outside the popup keep what they showed. To update them, use the Continue version and add the actions you need after it.
  • Final action. Actions placed after it in the same list never run, unless its condition is false. Use the action's Condition to decide when to close the popup. See Common Parameters.

Examples​

tip

To understand how to use the below examples, please see Running Examples.

1. Close the wizard from its last step​

Add this action to the Finish button of the form in the last tab. It closes the Tabs popup whose ID is in the WizardModuleId token.

{
    "Title": "Close Tabs Popup And Stop Execution",
    "ActionType": "CloseTPPopup",
    "Description": "Close the order wizard",
    "Parameters": {
        "ModuleId": {
            "Expression": "[WizardModuleId]",
            "Value": "",
            "IsExpression": true,
            "Parameters": {}
        }
    }
}

2. Close only when the order is complete​

This action closes the popup when the Status token is Complete. Otherwise, the next actions run, for example a message about what's still missing.

{
    "Title": "Close Tabs Popup And Stop Execution",
    "ActionType": "CloseTPPopup",
    "Description": "Close the wizard for complete orders",
    "Condition": "\"[Status]\" == \"Complete\"",
    "Parameters": {
        "ModuleId": {
            "Expression": "[WizardModuleId]",
            "Value": "",
            "IsExpression": true,
            "Parameters": {}
        }
    }
}
