12.0.1

Modify the layout of screens and properties of web service prompt fields. In addition, you can select the groups for which the changes apply. While tab sequence and display properties are established initially on the Fields page for Web Service Prompts, fields can be moved around the screen and display types can be changed using the screen designer feature.

Re-sequencing fields via screen designer may cause the prompt to function differently than the administrator originally intended. Exercise caution when re-sequencing fields via screen designer.

The following functionality is specific to screen designer for web service prompts:

  1. If you have access to the screen designer feature on system delivered screens, you also have access to screen designer on web service prompt screens.

  2. Make screen design changes with caution as certain changes can adversely affect the intended behavior of the screen. For example, if you move a controlling organization or class/class organization field to the bottom of a prompt, the system may not display any class-specific custom fields until the entire prompt has been navigated.

  3. Any field-level changes on the Web Service Prompt Definition form overwrite the corresponding field on the Prompt form for all groups when the screen is next opened, regardless of changes made via screen designer. For example, creating and updating prompt definitions impact the corresponding screen for all user groups.

  4. Hyperlinks are not available.

  5. "User Defined Field Options" and "User Defined Field Lookup Values" right-click options are not available.

  6. The "Not Available" attribute is not available.

  7. The "View Field Details" option is not available.

  8. When editing field names, translating to other languages is not available.

  9. Lookup Filters can be applied only to user defined fields. In addition, the user defined field must have the lookup defined on the base screen for which the web service is related.

  10. There is no web service prompt screen designer option for links and generic buttons as these cannot be displayed on a web service prompt-based screen.
