SAE I - Enhancing the UI Flashcards
Learn the basics of creating an effective UI
User Interfaces in case management are mainly used to …
provide screens for users to create, update or resolve their cases
What are the three main rule types ( core components) used to build user interfaces in PRPC?
- Harness - top level frame that provides the frame for the user interface screen: is the uppermost level/ outermost piece. It is not often manipulated.
- Flow Action (aka Action) - represents an action a user can take
- Section - innermost component of UI: that’s the part you build
Use this to set the processing context of an assignment.
Harness
How many standard types does the Harness have and what are they?
The harness has four standard types.Each has a very distinct action. It sets context for processing the form. They are:
- New: Create a case or record - only referenced on the starter flows and rarely seen
- Perform: End user participant does something in the UI
- Review: When multiple users are working on an application, the xxxx will be in read-only
- Confirm: Confirms the end user’s input or action. Ex.Upon completion of form, the end user may see a message similar to this “Thank you for your input”, “Saved”, “Continue”
A Flow Action is:
A.k.a. Action. It is one of the options presented to a user to move an assignment forward in a workflow (business process) a.k.a. an action a user can take. It is the connector coming off the assignment.
What is a Section?
A rule that defines the content and behavior of a rectangular area on a work item form, referred to by flow action rules and harness rules.
How many Sections can a Flow Action(or Action) have?
It must have one and no more than one.
What is a Section made up of?
Layouts
Can a Section contain more than one Layout?
Yes
Can a Section contain other Sections?
Yes
What are layouts?
Layouts organize properties and controls within a section. Layout cells contain properties, labels, controls, or other sections. There are various types of layouts that dictate how cells are arrayed.
What is the Layout type we are expected to use and why?
We use a Dynamic Layout because it’s a way to get a Responsive UI.
Use this to configure the data elements on a form.
Control.
Name the five major types of Controls.
- Dropdown
- Radio Buttons
- Text
- Date/Time
- Checkbox
It is a best practice to set the Control at the lowest level possible. This would be the ___________ level.
