Procedure

Generating dynamic values using interactive wizards

  1. Drag the DropDownByKey or InputField UI element and drop it on the view designer.

  2. Using the secondary mouse button, choose   Fill Values   Apply  .

  3. Follow the instructions in the Fill Values wizard to generate dynamic values in the SVS or the EVS.

    Note Note

    • SVS is applicable for DropDownByKey UI element, and EVS is applicable for InputField UI element.

    • For SVS or EVS, you have the option of filling values either statically or dynamically. Filling values dynamically allows for custom code to be included with the values to be visible on load of the value help.

      For more information, see Providing Long Value Lists (EVS), Providing Short Value Lists (SVS)

    End of the note.

    The wizard generates a default piece of code, which can be modified in the Java editor based on the business logic.
