Linking Tagged Elements from a Schedule Attribute Form to Another Form

Linking a tagged field from a Schedule attribute form maps it to one or more fields on another form. When you link a tagged field to a destination field, you must specify the data element that will receive the information. For example, if you want to show multiple activity start dates from the Schedule Sheet on the destination form, you would link the source element uuu_start with the fields on the form that will display that information. In this way, you can link uuu_start with multiple fields on the form.

After you link these elements, the element on the form you are designing will automatically display the current value of the field you link to on the schedule attribute form.

Note: Before you can link elements on the form you are designing here, the linkable tagged fields from the schedule attribute form must be specified when you start the Schedule Manager design (see Starting an Attribute or Detail Form for a Manager).

To link an element from the schedule attribute form to a business process form:

  1. Open the business process you want to work with.
  2. Open the upper form in the Form Designer window.
  3. On the Form Designer window, highlight an empty cell and click the Linked button on the toolbar. The Linked Data Element Picker window opens, showing a list of the fields that you chose for linking when you started the design for the schedule activity.
  4. From the list of data elements, select the field(s) that you want to link to this form and click OK.

    uDesigner links these fields so that the current value of the field you link to always appears on the attribute form or BP you are designing.
