Form Name: This label lists the name of the form Design Canvas: The design canvas is used to build the form by placement of sections, headers, fields, and record views. Section element: This element is used as a container for the Header elements, fields and views. Within the UI, sections are clickable breadcrumbs within the vertical navigation tree. Sections are identified with a label name. Header element: This element is a container for fields and views. Headers can be identified with a label name. Table Field List: This section lists the fields configured into the table to which the form is bound. Save Form: This button saves the changes made on the design canvas. Back: This button returns you to the form list. Configuration activities not saved on the design canvas will be lost. Widgets: These are pre-built elements that reflect universal record functions. Add Scripts: This element provides access to the Add/Edit script form. The product is supported by a library of pre-built scripts. An individual or multiple scripts can be allocated to the form. Foreign Key Views: This panel, located beneath the field listing, presents a summary of related tables as foreign key views. Views are inserted into the section or contained within a group header of the design canvas. An important note: not all forms will display foreign key views. Additionally, when you build a form, the underlying table may not have any foreign key relationships. Foreign Key views are determined by the creation of foreign key field types. The configuration of the foreign key views onto the form will allow system users to review, edit and create a linked record. For example, the funding record is linked to the client, thereby allowing multiple funding records to be maintained within the client funding record view configured to the client form. Views: This panel, located beneath either the foreign Key View or the table fields, presents a summary of linked views established through the table relationship form. Views are inserted into the section or contained within a group header of the design canvas. An important note: not all forms will display views. Additionally, when you build a form, the underlying table will not have any relationships defined. The configuration of the record view onto the form will allow system users to review and attach a linked record. For example, the Preferred support worker records are linked to the client, thereby allowing multiple employee records to be maintained within the care worker view configured to the client form.
