Supported Form Elements
The following form elements are supported for modeling in the Designer:
Page | Icon | Description |
---|---|---|
Data Table | The developer determines the contents of a Data Table. They can configure the data table contents according to their needs as long as text values are used. The values can be entered during execution either by the user, or via a mapping from the process data. | |
Select Field | The developer determines the contents of a Select Field. The user can later choose one of the options in the list. | |
Button | Buttons are necessary to leave a form and access the next process step. | |
Label | Use the label field to design headers in your form. | |
Image (Form) | Use the image element if you want to upload a picture for example a photo, a company logo etc. | |
Grouping | Use the grouping element to arrange other form elements that belong together. You can use the grouping element to break up the grid of the form editor for example to arrange several form elements next to a single field in one line. It can also be used to move and reuse whole sections. If you delete a grouping element, all content of the element is deleted as well. | |
Checkbox | Field used to activate or deactivate one single option. | |
File Upload | Form field where images and other documents can be uploaded. If the user clicks the upload button, he/she can select files to upload from a file browser. Alternatively, the desired files can be added with drag&drop into the marked frame. The upload takes place as soon as a file is added to the element. Uploads are stored to the file storage of the PAS installation, to a path related to the sandbox of the current user (sandbox_<user name>/<identifier>, e.g. sandbox_david.stringer/1e10d48a-db07-4589-9e5f-8bb6448ef657). The uploaded files can be referenced in forms. | |
Date Picker | Date field with the options of manual or calendar supported input. | |
Text Box | Input field for character strings (text) of all kinds without line breaks. Input is always saved as character string, even if numbers are listed. | |
Text Area | Use a Text Area if you want to enable the input of longer texts, for example desciptions or notes. The Text Area is an input field for character strings of all kinds including line breaks. Input is always saved as character string, even if numbers are listed. | |
Subform | Use the subform element to integrate other existing form pages into the current one. The element thus enables forms to be nested. Use the element's attribute Form to choose which of the existing forms you want to include. | |
Radio Button Group | Only one single option can be selected from the displayed options. To choose an option, click on the corresponding button. The developer can set the default option. |
