Through the form modeler, the business entities are modeled. It is also possible to model relations among entities to represent their interaction. The relations defined in this panel can be modeled in the referenced entity so that they are reflected when using the corresponding form.

An asterisk "*" on the label indicates that the property is required.

 

To define a relation with an entity, the entity to establish a relation with must be selected first, and then complete a set of properties.

Properties

 

Name

Name of the relation between both entities, it is a modeling-oriented property. It does not allow spaces and must be unique per modeled form.

 

Permissions

Search

By checking this property, the user is allowed to access the results grid to find the entity instance to establish a relation with in the form use.

Autocomplete

If this property is checked, predictive text functionality is presented to users. Based on the characters that the user types, a subset of values is proposed, which coincide with all or part of the text entered. This facility is called autocomplete.

In order to use this property, the referenced entity must have the Short Description modeled. Such description must not contain date or time variables, nor can it have a variable related with another entity.
