Click Configure Fields and Regions to personalize the page using business rules. Here’s what you can do using business rules:

  • Set a field on the page as required or optional using the Required column.

  • Mark a field on the page as visible or hidden using the Hidden column.

  • Set a field on the page as read-only or editable using the Read Only column.

These business rule attributes are supported as parameters for the Document Types page:

  • User roles

  • Document type only for viewing and editing but not for adding or creating 

  • Document category

  • Document type subcategory

  • Document type tags

Here's an image of the business rule configuration page for the New Document Type page. In this rule, the Allow multiple occurrences and Approval Required fields are hidden. Also, the Description field is made mandatory.

Tips And Considerations

  • You can’t edit the default business rule. Create a rule to personalize the fields on the page.

  • Defaulting and validation rules aren’t yet available on the page, that is, you can’t use the Value column of the business rules you create.
