EForm Button Configuration

The EForm Button Configuration screen allows users to set metadata key variable values when buttons are clicked on the EForm.

The metadata key variables are created in the Workflow Definition Manager.

The values for the metadata key variables are configured in the EForm Button Configuration screen.

Show Button by Default:
If this checkbox is checked [= TRUE], the button will be displayed and visible by default. The button can be hidden programmatically if desired using custom formlets. The visibility of some of the buttons are controlled by the Standard formlets used in the Standard activities.

Button Label:

This value is the name shown on the button in the EForm.

Button Confirmation:
This value is the confirmation message shown when the button in clicked on the EForm.

Action Complete Message:

This value only applies to the Complete, Approve, Reject buttons because that is when a task is completed. If the button is clicked, after the task has completed and right before the eform closes, it should prompt the message to the user. If the message is closed, then it would close the eform.

Add Key/Value Button:

This button allows the user to add additional metadata key value pairs.

Metadata Key:

This drop down contains a list of metadata key variables configured in the Workflow Definition Manager at design time. This can be changed at runtime for an instance by changing the value in the Workflow Instance Manager.

Metadata Value:

This is the value that will be set for the metadata key variable when the button is clicked. This value can contain spaces.

Delete:

This button will delete the metadata key value item. If this item is deleted the value will not be populated for the metadata key variable. The metadata key values are then consumed by the conditionals in the workflow to make appropriate decisions in the workflow process.
