I have a form, xml below, which has a modal component with an insertListing component to display a customer selection. This works perfectly fine, and submits the selected items with the underlying form.
The problem is when the modal is closed after items are selected there is no indication to the user that anything was in fact selected, so i wanted to display the selected customer name and id on the form somewhere.
So my question is: is there a way for me to be able to grab the data that was selected in the modal once it’s closed to display on the form itself before it’s submitted? Just for usability really.
