How to make an attribute visible, read-only, mandatory or display a different set of choices on a particular form only

Normally you define whether an attribute is visible or read-only using dynamic business rules and you define whether an attribute is mandatory by ticking the “Required” property of the attribute. This makes the attribute visible, read-only or mandatory on all forms. There are scenarios, though where you want to make the attribute visible, read-only, mandatory or display a particular set of choices on a particular form only. To do this:

  1. Open the form section that has the attribute using the Form Designer
  2. Select the required attribute
  3. Click on the “Presentation rules” property.
  4. Define the appropriate presentation rule (conditional or unconditional) – select ACCESS as element type to make the attribute visible or read-only (specify this in the Element dialog) or select REQUIRED as element type to make the attribute mandatory or select Choices to display a different set of choices (for an attribute that has choices)
