Creating new forms

Note: Before creating a form ensure you have defined the necessary default settings.
  1. Access Infor OS Portal.
  2. Select SunSystems Cloud from the application menu.
  3. Specify FRD in the search field and select Form Designer (FRD).
  4. Click the + icon to create a new form.
  5. Specify this information:
    Form Type
    Select a form type. You can only create System or SASI forms if running Form Designer in full mode.
    Function
    Select a function from the list, which is taken from the SunSystems Data Dictionary. This is the SunSystems internal function identifier; not the SunSystems menu shortcut. By default the list displays functions alphabetically by description. The function name appears on the form window title bar.
    Note: If you can't see the full function name in the drop down list, resize the width of the New Form dialog.
    Form Codes
    Enter a form code to identify your form. This must be an upper case alphanumeric code up to eight characters long. The form code appears on the form window title bar. Make a note of the form code as you need it when adding your forms to functions (menu items).
    Note: Characters that can be used for form codes are A-Z (upper case) and a-z (lower case will be converted to upper case) from the English alphabet, numbers 0-9, plus '_' underscore.
    Description
    Enter an alphanumeric description up to 100 characters long.
  6. Click OK to confirm your settings and to create the form.
