A generic design template for displaying data in a form.

It is implemented using the Web Dynpro component FPM_FORM_UIBB.

The information displayed in a form at runtime is determined by the feeder class assigned to the configuration of the Web Dynpro component FPM_FORM_UIBB.

 

You use this design template in application-specific views (UIBBs) when you want to display data using a form. You can determine the concrete display of the data in a form when configuring the Web Dynpro component FPM_FORM_UIBB.

This component is superseded by the Form GL2 Component.
