Forms

The visual editor for form rules is a tool for supervisors (or admins) to create and edit rules for dynamic form assignment.

The editor can be found in the FrontStage administration, section Rules ‣ Forms. You need the EditScenarioCondition role.

Editor layout

Upon opening, you can see a list of all currently defined rules in your installation.

Based on conditions, it is determined which forms can be created by the agent for specific communication. Rules are evaluated sequentially in order. Any matching rule is applied, meaning multiple rules can be applied simultaneously and are cumulative.

Buttons in the header:

  • Save - saves all the changes. If you leave the editor and won’t save the changes, you will loose them.

Working with rules

You can create a rule by clicking the Add Rule button located at the end of each group. You will be prompted to enter the default parameters of the rule, which will be preset (you can change them after insertion).

You can delete the rule by pressing the “dustbin” icon at the end of each row and change their order by drag & drop.

Particular rule definition

After creating the empty rule in the list, you have to define its content, so it can work properlly.

Empty rule in the list:

  1. When clicked on it, a drop-down menu will appear and you can choose the inner condition for it.

  2. After the inner condition follows the action, which will be performed, if the inner condition is matched. Selection works the same as in previous case.

Important

Particular inner conditions and actions can be connected in “AND” logical way, so more complex rule can be defined, which will reflect you needs more preciselly.

You can tell if the selected rule item has an editor available where you can see its detail immediately by the detail-editor icon. Click to open the editor in a new window where you can continue working with the item.
