Form Templates
Workflow provides samples of basic, predefined forms that are commonly used. You can use these forms in their basic format, or you can modify them to meet your needs.
Tip: The forms in the Forms Library are available by adding the Forms Library .NET assembly (Proficy.Platform.FormsLibrary.dll) into the form and then selecting the class for the specific form. For more information, see Basic Forms and Displays.
Each form in the library has standard features. You can configure the parameters, as well as create expressions or binds.
Note: The input parameters for the form are configured when the form is selected for a Form activity.
The following table describes the common, optional input parameters of the forms in the Forms Library:
| Parameters | Data Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Comment Prompt | String | Prompt text displays above the comment text box. |
| Comment Required | Boolean | If set to True, the Comment Prompt text box displays. If set to False, the text box is hidden and no comment can be entered. |
| ESignature Required | Boolean | If set to True, the User ID and Password text boxes display. If set to False, these text boxes are hidden. |
| Form Header | String | Enter a title for the form to display at the top of the form. |
| Form Header Visible | Boolean | If set to True, the header text displays. If set to False, the header text is hidden. |
