Forms

You can design the form, determining the information to be presented as well as the layout. Forms can be created for specific object types since the data contained in different types can vary greatly. In addition, one object type could have several forms associated with it; each displaying different collections of information. When a user attempts to display information about an object using a form, Collaboration and Approvals only offers those forms that are valid for the selected object.

Expressions can be used in the form's field definitions to navigate the selected object's connections and display information from the relationship (attributes) or from the objects found at their ends. Forms can be used as a means of inputting or editing the attributes of the selected object. However, attributes of related objects cannot be edited in a form.

A special type of form called a Web form can be created for use in custom applications. Each field has several parameters where you can define the contents of the field, link data, user access, and other settings.
