Modeling forms

d.velop forms is an application for managing forms. With the appropriate administrator authorization, you can create forms. Users that do not have this authorization can open, fill out and submit the forms. Thanks to their responsive design, forms can be opened on any device.

Each created form has an embedding URL. You can use this URL to make the form available to your users. You can also use the form within a process by entering the URL as a processing dialog within a user step.

Forms are created using a graphical user interface. You can arrange various input fields (for text, numbers, date values or a file, for example) in your form. You can also adapt your form to your requirements using CSS or Javascript.

If users open the form for a process step or document, you have access to the process variables/document properties within the form. For instance, this allows you to map the process variables or document properties to the form fields. When the form is opened, the current values for the process variables or document properties are automatically written to the form fields. Users can edit these values. The changed values are then written back to the process variables or document properties when the form is submitted.
