Control is Exited Processing

Control is Exited processing includes these actions:

  • The value in the control is saved to internal runtime structures.

  • The Control is Exited event is processed.

If the value has changed since the previous time that the control was exited, these steps occur:

  • The system processes the Control Exited/Changed–Inline event.

  • The system processes the Control Exited/Changed–Async event.

  • The system validates the value using edit rules defined for the DD item.

  • The form control data is formatted using format rules defined for the DD item and displayed on the screen.

The Trigger Parallel Event system function is available for the Control Exited/Changed–Inline and the Control Exited/Changed–Async events. This system function will enable a parallel event to run on a separate thread and will not interfere with existing Event Rules.
