The HR Form Editor (or form editor) is a tool used in Human Resources to enable you to create or edit forms.

The form editor has the following advantages:

• It is a central tool: You can use the form editor to edit forms from different application components.
• The form editor has a graphical interface which serves as an overview screen for the form to be structured, for example, complete representation of individual information levels.
• It can support creation of forms in several languages. If, for example, you delete a line, the form editor deletes this line in all available language variants.

• It has an automatic transport connection.

• Transport forms
