[IMPLEMENTED] Business Rules on Forms

Post by PointsWell »

At the moment business rules relate to the Business Objects but some of my rules apply only at specific times (I.e. when I am using a specific form). I’d like to apply specific rules to specific forms.

Jon,

If you have specific conditions that dictate which form is displayed, why can’t you use the same conditions for a BO rule?
Cheers,
Mark

Doesn't give the user a visual hint that the field is mandatory. Can only give them a REPORT ERROR after the event.

You can conditionally place text on a form (like a red * for mandatory, etc) by having a rule that conditionally & dynamically puts that text in an attribute on the BO. I usually display this type of text in an HTML slot on the form.
