You can use StatefulSnippets if you like, but what you want to do is perfectly
doable with RequestVars.
Clearly it's not being set in the same request as it's being read.

I think we still have a miss understanding
The client_id code clientBox map (_.id.toLong) work ok .. no problems
with that
What doesnt work would be doing something like :
val clientBox = ViewClient.currentClient
def processEntry () {
inInvoice.client (clientBox.open_!)
inInvoice.save
S.notice ("Entre : Description " + inInvoice.description + "
Montant : " + inInvoice.amount)
}
Since in this case inInvoice.client (clientBox.open_!) return an empty
box since the RequestVar has been destroyed ...
So I was trying to do this but I need to copy or ref the RequestVar so
that I use it in the next request...
At first I tought because of the closure it would ref it... but it
seems not..
It's looking more and more like a statefull snippet is the way to
go...
