Attribute field to UPPER - Composer

Hi all,

I have also sent this in to support because I can't quite find a solution in the documentation:

How can I configure an attribute field such that when the user inputs a mixed character string via Webtop it will be converted to UPPER case (much like the upper() function in SQL)? The string length is variable so the 'UUUUU' will not work in this case. I'm currently working in Composer.

My thoughts in sudo code is to configure a constraint like the following:


if attribute1 != ""
upper($value(attribute1))

Thanks for any suggestions

Why don't you use a TBO for the type overriding doSave() and converting there the attribute value to uppercase?

I haven't created a TBO before, but I recall these from the Architecting class. This looks like a very likely path and I will explore it some more. Thanks.

Is a TBO also where I should perform a check to see if an input value is unique? I have this discussion going on this question.

Yes, Business validations/constraints specific to a object type should be written in TBO Code preferably.
