Transferring rule contexts
If a form that you add to a visit has rules defined for any of its items, the InForm Architect application gives you the option of creating rule contexts for the form in the new visit based on the form’s existing rule context definitions for the form. When you add the form to the visit, the following dialog box appears:
To generate new rule contexts:
- In the Select Visit list, select the visit on which you want to base the contexts.
- Click Yes.
The InForm Architect application copies the rule contexts from the existing visit and associates them with the form in the current visit, changing their names by appending the new visit name to the end of the original context name.
If any context references cannot be resolved—for example, if a context includes a dependency on an item outside the form—the InForm Architect application displays the Unresolved Dependencies dialog box. This message dialog box indicates which references could not be resolved and instructs you to make the associations manually:
For convenience, you can copy the message to the Microsoft Windows Clipboard by clicking the Copy to Clipboard button. You can add any context definitions and dependency that the InForm Architect application was unable to create automatically by following the procedure described in Defining additional rule dependencies.
