Dropdown values display incorrectly on PDF
SA-95844
Summary
Dropdown values display incorrectly on PDF.
Error Messages
Not Applicable
Steps to Reproduce
- Create a dropdown on a section
- Pass the section to a PDF
Root Cause
An issue in the custom application code or rules. Property for display text and Property for value are different in the dropdown properties. Therefore, in the server, the value which is saved is different and the value which displays on the User Interface (UI) is different. However, the PDF considers the value from the server. Hence, the values in the server display.
Resolution
Perform the following local-change:
Set the same value for Property for display text and Property for value in the dropdown properties.
