Data Attributes can be dragged from the accordion control on the User Interface Palette, and dropped as Fields onto Attribute Clusters.
The following Field properties can be set for Data Attributes:
| Property name | Description |
|---|---|
| Label | An optional Field Label for the default locale. Note that most Fields have Labels, but they are not in fact enforced as mandatory by the Dynamic Evidence infrastructure. |
| Label ID | A Resource property identifier for the Label property. Mandatory if a Label is provided (this property is only displayed in the Editor if the Label has one or more characters). |
| Source Attribute | The name of the Model Data Attribute that this Field populates. |
| Modifiable | Possible values are true or false. This property determines whether or not the Field is read-only on the Case Evidence modify page. If false (i.e. The Field is read-only after first creation), then the Field Value is rendered as a Label. Otherwise an editable widget appropriate to the associated Data Attribute Type will be used. |
| Use Default | Possible values are true or false. A true setting indicates that the field should use the default value specified for the 'Default Value' property for the related Source Attribute. The case worker user will see the Default Value populated in this field on a Case Evidence create operation. If no Default Value has been provided in the Data Attribute Model Properties, but Use Default is true, then the Field will be populated with appropriate default values for the data type in question (e.g. Today's date for Data Attributes of type 'Date', '0' for Data Attributes of type 'Integer', etc). |
| Use Blank | This property is only applicable if the Source Attribute has a data type of 'Codetable'. This property indicates the dropdown for the Source Field should have a selectable blank value in it (in effect, making the Codetable mandatory or non-mandatory). It has a setting of true or false. If true the caseworker will see a blank value added to the list of possible selectable Codetable values in the dropdown for this Field. If it is set to false, only the list of Codetable values will be displayed, thus making the Field mandatory. |
| Online Help | An optional localizable text containing field or attribute information for Online Help on Case Evidence screens. |
