Forms

In simplest terms, a form is a collection of fields that enable users to interact with a business class. Form fields can be editable, allowing the user to change a record. Fields can also be read-only, meaning that they display static information.

A more complex type of a form, a composite form, shows data from the associated business class and other related business classes.

The table shows actions that might be available on a toolbar or overflow (…) menu when you work with forms. On the toolbar, actions are represented by icons that you can hover over to view help text.

Note: 

If other options are available on the toolbar, they have been added by your applications (FSM or HRT) and are described in your application product documentation.
