Defining Form Logic in the Form Context

Use

In the context of a form template, you can define the logic that the system is to use to retrieve and output the data of a form. To do this, you can use the following options for each node of the context structure:

Specify static and dynamic values in the node properties
Define conditions

Prerequisites

You have called the context of a form template for editing.

More information: Defining the Context of a Form Template

Procedure

Entering Values in the Properties of a Node

For most nodes, you can enter values that the system takes into account when creating the form. The values can have the following type:

Static

Enter the value between quotation marks.

Example: Name of the text module for a level 1 reminder: 'REMINDERLEVEL1'
Dynamic

Enter the name of a field that delivers the value at runtime without quotation marks.

Example: Name of the field that contains the text module name at runtime: FIELD_FOR_TEXT .

Defining Conditions for Executing a Node

You can place conditions on certain nodes of the context structure. The system only processes the node and its subnodes if the respective condition is met. To create a condition, proceed as follows:

Call the detailed data (properties and conditions) of the node by double-clicking it
Choose Conditions .
Choose the icon to Insert or Append a line.
If you want to link the line to the previous one, enter the Operator AND or OR.

Note
In the first line, the Operator field stays empty.
Enter a field (variable) or a value as the first Operand .
Click the icon in the Relational Operator column and select the required option.
Enter the second Operand .
