Setting Conditions for Displaying Web Page Content

The When do you want to see it section determines whether the specific content you are creating always appears on the Composite Application Framework when this EnterpriseOne application form is opened or if this content appears only when specified values are entered on this EnterpriseOne application form. The Always option is set by default. This means that this content always shows in the Composite Application Framework when this form is opened.

When you select the Sometimes option, you define the values that must be entered in the EnterpriseOne form for this content to appear on the Composite Application Framework.

To specify conditional criteria for when the link displays:

  1. In the When do you want to see it section, select the Sometimes option.

  2. Click the Define the conditional data for displaying this content frame.

    This action starts the capture mode. During the capture phase, a key indicator that appears as a plus sign shows the fields and grid column headers on the application form that you can select. A valid form-level field is a text field and value in the header area of the form. Data privacy fields, password fields, hidden text, and fields with wildcard values cannot be mapped.

    Starting with Tools release 9.2.2.5, check boxes and combo boxes (drop-down lists) in the header area of the form are also valid form-level fields that can be mapped. And if in the grid, they are valid grid columns that can be mapped.

  3. Click the plus sign beside a valid form-level field or the grid column header on the open EnterpriseOne form.

    You can select one or more text fields and their values and grid columns on the application form to create the conditional criteria that define when this content should appear on the Composite Application Framework when this application form is opened.

    As you capture fields, the system displays a table of the descriptions, data dictionary aliases, and the value of the fields that you selected.

  4. After you complete the conditional link definition process, click the Stop icon.
