MultiFields Element

A set of fields that can be repeated is called MultiField. MultiFields enable and allow Screen and Transaction configuration with multiple sets of dynamic field values. To use MultiField in a business rule or transaction, it has to be first defined using a MultiField business rule. It can then be used by screen displaying business rules with the <MultiField> element. For detailed information about configuring MultiFields, refer to "MultiField Configuration" in the Rules Palette Help.

Note: In any one Screen or Transaction, only one MultiField BR can be used through a MultiFields tag. In case multiple MultiFields are required, the same can be defined inside a single MultiField BR. If more than one MultiFields tag is used, only the first one will take effect.
