Alteryx App Interface help

[Bobbyt23]

Hi all, I've had a request for a piece of work and am struggling to work out the best way to do it.

Problem- We have a list of responses that are pre populated. However, if they are incorrect or need updating we are wanting to use an App so the user can select their row and then correct the numbers. I have built out a workflow but can't work out how to show them the data to update.

This is the data they will see when they have chosen their area:

I then want this to pop up in an interface that looks something like this:

From that interface they can correct the numbers that are wrong and hit Finish. At that point it continues the workflow having updated the numbers.

Is this possible?

I've attached a fake data workflow of what I have achieved so far but it's the second interface tool that I just can't work out how to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Rob

Definitely possible, and you are on the right track. I would suggest looking at chained applications.

Following your last Filter tool, drop an Output tool and save the file. That file becomes the Input tool of the next app. While still in your first workflow, you are going to want to change the following within your Interface Designer - Properties window.

After completing the above steps, open a second workflow. Take the output from your first workflow and bring it in as an input for the second workflow. From here, you can have your interface return the fields' values as they initially appear in the input. If there is a correction that needs to be made, users can inject those values. Once satisfied with how the data is supposed to appear, they can run the workflow through the interface and it'll update the "database" you are using in the first workflow's input tool.

Thanks for the reply @rzdodson  . The bit I can't work out though is how to set up the interface for that second one so it shows all the questions and current answers for them to change etc. Can't work out what tool to use to show it how I need.
