Example:
Let’s build and execute the “SaveFormDef” example.
- Create a Form definition called “SaveFormDef.”
- Drag a “First Middle Last Name, Address, Save and Submit” control to the canvas and arrange it as shown below. Double-click the text control and configure the properties as required for user input (not mandatory).
- Double-click the “Save” widget to configure the “Settings” properties. Select the button type from the drop-down list with “Success” as the default. The application provides the control name. Provide a button label. Select the check box to “hide” or “read-only” the control during run time. Provide the pre-prompt message to alert the user before the save action. Provide the post-prompt message to inform the user after the save action is completed. Provide the URL to redirect after the post action. Click the Save button.
- Double-click the “Save” widget to configure the “Styling” properties. Provide the syntax for the CSS styles. Select the classes to apply from the global drop-down list. Click the Save button.
- Double-click the “Save” widget to configure the “Other” properties. Provide the tool tip text information. Click the Save button.
- Double-click the “Save” widget to configure the “Globalize” properties. The application will alert you if there is nothing to globalize, as shown below. Otherwise, select the language from the drop-down list and click the Translate button. Click the Save button.
- Create a Process definition called “SaveFormDef.”
- Drag a “RouteForm and PlaceHolder” step to the canvas. Connect the dots between the Start and other steps as below.
- Double-click the “RouteForm” step to configure the “Required” properties. Provide a name for the step. Provide the task name. Select the above Form definition from the drop-down list. Provide a variable/global reference to hold the Form Instance ID. Click the Save button.
- Double-click the “RouteForm” step to configure the “Optional” properties. Provide a task description. Configure the users to route the Form. Define the task priority and duration. Click the Save button.
- Generate and execute a new process instance. The "Form" task is assigned to the user who is configured.
- The Form task is rendered for the user to complete. Provide the user input and click the Save button. The pre-prompt message alert is displayed as below. Click the Ok button.
- The post-prompt message alert is displayed as below. Click the Close button. The Form navigates to the Dashboard URL as configured.
