User Interface (UI) Options

Your implementation may create input forms and output maps that closely match your customer's business practice within the following user interface areas:

• Content presented in portal zones. For example, a map that displays the details of a business object or any other informational content. Refer to Map Zones for more information.
• An input form presented via Business Process Assistant (BPA) scripts for data entry and update purposes. For example, a form that captures business object information or prompts the user for additional information related to a task they perform.
• An input form presented as a panel within a process flow.

The HTML for these forms and maps may be provided using the following options:

• UI Map. Compose your HTML and store it as a UI map, which is a repository for an HTML document. The UI Map HTML gives you the ability to craft the display by any method that an HTML document can support, including JavaScript and full CSS functionality.
• UI Hints. With this technique you do not compose the HTML. Instead, the HTML is generated at run time based on a schema that describes the data being displayed and embeds user interface rendering instructions known as "UI Hints".
