Managing User Interface

Overview​

Bizagi provides tools to manage data display in forms and perform validations to ensure data integrity and adherence to company policies. These validations can range from simple to complex logic.

Simple Behaviors​

Basic Properties:​

  • Visible: Determines if a control is shown or hidden.
  • Editable: Specifies if the control value is read-only or modifiable.
  • Required: Ensures mandatory information is provided; throws a validation if left empty.

For these simple behaviors, Boolean expressions can be used directly in the control's properties.

Dynamic Validations and Behaviors​

For more complex situations, dynamic expressions allow advanced configuration and can address intricate scenarios.

What You Can Configure Using Expressions​

  1. Visible
    Defines whether a control is shown or hidden in a form.

  2. Editable
    Determines if the value of a control can be changed in the form or if it is read-only.

  3. Required
    Ensures information is mandatory. If no value is entered in a required control, a validation is triggered.

    • Boolean Expressions:
      A Boolean expression must return True or False:
      • True: The control becomes visible, editable, or required.
      • False: The control is disabled.

    Refer to Scripting Booleans for complex conditions.
