Rules

It is possible to define rules of behavior, validation and calculation, associated with a field for the activity. The field behavior rules defined in the activity override those modeled in the form field, while validation rules are added.

	Required
	Indicates whether the field is required during the execution of the activity. Required Not required (default) Opens an editing area where a rule to determine the required condition can be defined by using the wizard (ctrl + space). If a rule is defined, the icon is displayed with light blue borders.
	Visible
	Indicates whether the field is visible. If this property is not selected, the field is not displayed during the execution of the activity. Visible (default) Not visible Opens an editing area where a rule to determine the visibility condition can be defined by using the wizard (ctrl + space). If a rule is defined, the icon is displayed with light blue borders.
	Editable
	Indicates if the field is editable. If this property is not selected, the user cannot enter or modify values in the field during the execution of the activity. Editable (default) Not editable Opens an editing area where a rule to determine the editability condition can be defined by using the wizard (ctrl + space). If a rule is defined, the icon is displayed with light blue borders.
	Validation
	Opens an editing area where the condition that determines if the field value is correct can be defined. It is possible to define more than one rule. If rules are defined, the icon is displayed with light blue borders.
	Calculation
	Opens an editing area where the expression to be executed to calculate the field value can be defined. If a rule is defined, the icon is displayed with light blue borders.
	Persists Indicates whether the information entered in the field is kept in an activity. This property is only available to IT modeler users.
	Persists (default) Does not persist The value of this property is presented as Does not persist when the field meets all the conditions mentioned below: •It is not editable and has no associated editability rule •It has no default value property defined •It has no associated calculation rules •It has no relation defined If the IT modeler user needs to use scripting to update the field content in the activity, they must indicate this property value as Persists. In this way, the field value updated by scripting is not lost when the case moves on to the next activity.

If form rules or properties are overwritten from an activity, subsequent modifications from the form for the overwritten properties, have no impact on the behavior already defined in the activity.

PRIORI~2_img6 Undo changes

Allows to delete rules or behavior properties modeled from the activity. In this way, behavior properties and rules applicable in the execution of the activity are again those originally defined in the form.

Shows syntax examples to write rules.

Default Value

It is an area to define the field default value.
funcion_img1 Allows to select functions from a list to incorporate dynamic information into the field.

C00041~1_img1 Allows to incorporate information of entities that participate in the process execution to the field content. For example, in the Refund Request process, the request date can be incorporated, this data is available in the date field of the Refund Request form.
