Call a Form From a Button or Link

Apart from adding a link to a Form on a page, you can add a link to open a Form from read-only pages such as the activity hint. This serves as a short cut to open the Form.

Follow the procedure described in the Add the Form to a Page topic.

Note: You can configure the fields in the Form to populate values when Mobile Workers open the Form. You can use the Parameters section of the Button configuration page to pass the values that need to be populated. Further, using the Parameters section, you can also configure all the entities to populate values, although they are not present on the Form explicitly.
