Last updated 3 months ago

Introduction

The Form Runner Summary page shows, for a given published form, the list of accessible data in a table with paging. It allows:

  • Listing and searching data

  • Creating new data

  • Editing or visualizing existing data

  • Deleting data

  • Duplicating data

  • Navigating to the Home page and Import page

  • Opening a PDF or TIFF version of the form

Columns

  • Created:

    • This is the data's creation date.

  • Modified:

    • This is the data's last modification date.

  • Custom columns:

Sorting

It is possible to sort the data by clicking on the column headers. The sort order is indicated by an arrow next to the column name. Clicking multiple times on the same header will toggle between ascending and descending order.

Limitations:

  • Currently, all values except the "Created" and "Modified" columns are sorted as strings. This can lead to unexpected results, in particular for numbers and HTML values. Numbers will be sorted alphabetically (e.g. "1", "10", "11", "2", "37", "4", etc.) and HTML values will be sorted by their HTML representation (i.e. including HTML markup).

  • Dropdown controls will be sorted by their value, not their label.

Enabling support

Implementations of the persistence API may support the sorting feature, but they are not required to. For this reason, if your implementation does support the sorting feature, you must set the following property to true for your provider:

<property 
    as="xs:boolean" 
    name="oxf.fr.persistence.[provider].sort"
    value="true"/>

Search

By default, the Summary page shows a single search box which does a full-text search in the form data.

You can open the search options using the "Show Search Options" button. The search options area contains individual search fields which allow performing a structured search, or search by field.

Search by created, modified, created by, modified by, and workflow stage

The created by, modified by, and workflow stage search fields contain distinct values from accessible data.

Dynamic dropdowns

For dynamic dropdowns, the original service used to populate the dropdown is not called again, but distinct values from accessible data are listed. This is also done in the bulk edit area if dynamic dropdowns are present.

Search options opened on load

This property controls whether the search options area is opened by default when the Summary page loads. It allows you to provide a better user experience for forms where users frequently need to perform structured searches by having the search options immediately available.

  • When set to "true": The search options area is shown by default when the page loads

  • When set to "false" (default): The search options area is collapsed by default when the page loads

<property 
    as="xs:string"  
    name="oxf.fr.summary.search-options-opened-on-load.*.*"              
    value="true"/>

Versioning

Bulk edit

Just like for search options, you can open the bulk edit area using the "Show Bulk Edit" button. The bulk edit area contains individual fields which allow performing a bulk edit of multiple forms at once.
