Provides an alternative to the default Tabbed User form, which fetches all resources as soon as an administrator begins editing. In contrast, Dynamic Tabbed User form features incremental fetching and editing of multiple resources based on resource type.
For detailed implementation information, see the comments associated with each user form in WSHOME/samples/form_name.xml.
Three forms are involved in the substitution of Dynamic Tabbed User form for the default Tabbed User form.

Installing Dynamic Tabbed User form involves two steps: importing the form, and changing the form mapping.
From the Waveset menu bar, select Configure > Import Exchange File.
Enter the file name (dynamicformsinit.xml) or click Browse to locate the dynamicformsinit.xml file in the ./sample directory.
Click Import. Waveset responds with a message that indicates that the import was successful.
There are two methods of assigning a user form to an end user. Select a method to edit these form mapping depending upon how administrators in your environment will be using these forms. These methods include:
Assign Scalable User Form as the default User Form for all administrators. If this is your choice, see Step 2: Change Form Mapping. Waveset administrators can assign one form that all administrators will use.
Separately assign the Scalable User Form to a particular administrator(s). If this is your choice, see Step 2: Change Form Mapping.
From the menu bar, select Configure > Configure Form and Process Mappings.
In the Form Mappings section, locate userForm under the Form Type column.
Specify Dynamic Tabbed User Form in the box provided under the Form Name Mapped To column.
