Parameters Supported by emxCreate.jsp

Expression

Use to enter the select expression that gets the field data. This expression is applied to either the relationship or business object, as specified in the Applies To options (in Business Modeler). If the expression is a business object basic or an attribute that will be editable, make sure you include the Field Type setting with either the basic or attribute value.

The Expression and Applies to options in the Business Modeler are equivalent to the businessobject and relationship MQL commands.

To see an example of a field configured to use an expression, see Field Values as Select Expressions.

For business objects:

type

name

current

$<attribute[attribute_Originator]. value>

For relationships:

$<attribute[attribute_FindNumber].value>

$<attribute[attribute_Qty.value>

Label

Use to enter the text that displays as the field's label. Make sure Custom Label is checked (in Business Modeler) so the system gets the label you specify. If Custom Label is unchecked, the system uses the expression as the label.

Either a string resource ID for the text string or the actual text string. To internationalize the text, you must use a string resource ID. See Internationalizing Dynamic UI Components.

The system first looks for a string resource ID that matches the entered value. If it finds one, it uses the value for the ID. If it does not find one, it displays the entered text.

emxEngineeringCentral.common.Name

emxTeam.Common.ProjectName

Description

RangeHref

(range MQL command)

When configuring a form field in Business Modeler, the RangeHREF parameter is set on the Link tab.

Use to configure a textbox that has a Browse (...) button that calls a chooser or custom window from which users can select a value to populate the textbox. This Owner textbox is an example with a range helper.

In the RangeHref parameter, specify the href URL to display the window. For example, the href might call a custom selection page.

Range helpers are available only in Edit mode. Only textbox controls can be configured with a range helper. To specify the control type, set Input Type=textbox.

To see an example of a field configured with a RangeHref, see Field with Popup Range Helper. Also see Implementing Range Helpers for Choosers or Custom Pages.

You can specify the path of the JSP using any of the standard directory macros or you can leave off the path designation to use the registered directory. For more information, see Macros and Expressions in UI Components. For example:

${COMMON_DIR}/
emxSelectVault.jsp

${SUITE_DIR}/
emxSelectUser.jsp

emxTypeChooser.jsp?ty
