Most business processes require information-based decisions and actions. Users can use forms to access and display information.
A form is a structured field-based HTML file that acts as an interface for data exchanges between Systemwalker Runbook Automation and structured data repositories.
Forms are used for the following purposes:
Displaying or reporting data saved in user defined attributes (UDAs).
Enabling users to add or change data saved in UDAs.
Forms can be associated with Start nodes, Activity nodes, Voting Activity nodes and Compound Activity nodes. A form can be associated with multiple nodes and, conversely, one or more forms can be associated with a node. If multiple forms are associated with a node, then the Web console creates a tab for each.
QuickForms can be used with Systemwalker Runbook Automation. These are forms used for displaying and updating UDA values, and are defined using the Ajax Page Editor. The editor can be used to create any layout of forms parts (known as UI parts, which include TextInput, Select, RadioButton, and so on), to associate these UI parts with UDAs, and to display and refresh UDA values.
For information on QuickForm UI parts, refer to Reference for QuickForm UI Widgets in the Systemwalker Runbook Automation Reference Guide.
