When modeling a form, the fields with relations to entities, value lists and rules can be defined.
The values obtained from a modeled relation are displayed as a scrolled list, where the user can select one of them.
The fields modeled with a relation to a rule can be defined as multiple selection, using the Multiple property. Modeling this property allows to select more than one value from a scrolled list, holding down the 'CTRL' key while the items are being selected.
A field filtered by a value selected in another form field allows the value list of related fields to become variable, depending on the value initially selected.
When using the form, in the fields modeled with relation to an entity, an indicator is displayed on the field that enables a set of icons to perform different actions.
Clear Field
It allows to delete the value entered in the field.
Select
It allows to search and select instances of entities to which the field is related. Pressing this icon opens a new window with the results grid of the related entity.
Show
It allows to see the data of the entity related to the field, opening a new window with the corresponding related entity instance.
Example
If the related entity is the user, a window with the information of the user informed in the field is opened.
When filtered entities are modeled in forms, the values displayed from the magnifier in the show depend on the filter that has been modeled.
Example
The values available for the user field are filtered by sales, the previously selected organizational unit
