Understanding the Process Request Form Template

Understanding the Process Request Form Template

When a user submits a process request form, the server must match the request to the service name in the PDD. Be sure that the service name shown in the form matches the My Role service name in the PDD (for the starting activity of the process).
In the generated form, find the line of code for the service name and verify the name:
<script type="text/javascript"> //<![CDATA[ // request form to submit requests and handle response var AeRequestForm$ID = function() { // this var mFormInstance = this; //
the service name
var mServiceName = "EstimationService";
Making Additional Modifications
If you wish to make additional modifications to a process request form, it is helpful to understand the template used to create the form and the HTML file that is generated from it.
Visual Parts of the Form
  • Title
    By default the title is based on the operation name of the receive activity's interface. It is in the top-most table of the HTML page.
  • Input Message Parts
    If the message is a single-part element, there is one table containing one row for each child element. There is a separate table for each element. If an element is repeating, two command buttons are added: Add and Remove.
  • Send Request command button
    At the bottom of the form, a command button is added to submit the request and start the process.
For multilingual support, see Adding MultiLingual Support to Process Central.
Script Section of the Form
The script contains the commands to format and display the form dynamically in Process Central. The script is JavaScript, containing JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) and jQuery syntax to provide functionality in the form as well as transport protocol. For details, see Customizing Task and Form Scripts: An Introduction.
