Example: 

Let’s build and execute the “SelectManagersOrTeamListDef” example.  

  • Create a new form definition called “SelectManagersOrTeamListDef.” 
  • Select the Open Designer checkbox and click the “Create” button
  • Drag a SelectManagersOrTeamList widget to the canvas
  • Double-click on the widget to configure the “Settings” properties. Provide a name to the control. Select the type - My Managers or My Team. Select the check box for required, select multiple items, use type ahead, and hide or ready-only during run time. 

 

  • By selecting “My Manager,” the drop-down will list all users who manage the current user during run time
  • By selecting “My Team,” the drop-down will list all members in your team (the current user) during run time. 
  • A pre-configuration of the user's manager and team members is done in the Administration - User Management - Organization Structure module. A sample org structure is included here for reference. 

 

  • Double-click on the widget to configure the “Conditions” properties. Configure the display conditions to render other form controls when selecting a value. In this example, by selecting “Admin User” during run time, the associated form controls are displayed on this condition, which otherwise is hidden. 

 

  • Double-click on the widget to configure the “Styling” properties. Select the text box size from the drop-down list. Provide the style script. If the class was previously uploaded, select it from the drop-down list. 

 

  • Double-click on the widget to configure the “Others” properties. Provide the tooltip text.

 

  • Click on the Save button and Close the popup window
  • Create a new form instance and edit (or) route this form to a user using a workflow definition. Select the form task to render the form with the "SelectManagersOrTeamList Widget" to select managers or team members quickly.
