User fields allow users to select a
single user as a value. This is useful for defining ownership of primary items,
and for recording user data in primary and auxiliary items.
User fields are defined in
SBM Composer, but you can perform the following
configuration tasks in the
SBM System Administrator.
The following
User field properties are defined in
SBM Composer:
- Default Value — Indicates the pre-selected value for this
field, if specified. You can change this value as needed.
- Allow Searching — Enables the
Value Find feature for the field on submit, transition, and
update forms. Users can enter search criteria (an entire word, a few letters,
or an asterisk) and then click search icon or press
Enter to perform the search. Results appear in a drop-down
list, from which users select a value for the field. This option also enables
users to search for values in the Rich Editable Grid.
Tip: If the field will contain 200 or more selections,
this option is recommended for best performance. If you do not allow searching,
fields that contain over 250 selection values are automatically set as
searchable in the Editable Grid.
- Single Drop-Down List — Allows users to
select a value from a drop-down list.
- Selections — List the selections for the field.
- Status — Indicates the selection's status.
- Show Selections Referencing Deleted Users or Groups — Includes
in the list users or groups that were previously specified as selections and
later deleted. You can then delete the selection referencing the deleted user
or group.
