Edit step tab pages

Each approval step must have at least one tab page. Use tab pages to define the sections that are shown on the workflow task dialog.

On the workflow task dialog, a tab page is shown only if it has at least one field group with fields set up in the data entry workflow template.

On creation of an approval step, automatically a default tab page is created for the step with the step name.

Usually, tab pages are added automatically when you select the fields to be approved with the 'Select field groups' function.

To complete the tab page setup for a step, you can:

  • Edit tab pages.
  • Add tab pages.
  • Set up conditions for each tab page.
  • Review and edit the field groups setup and the fields setup.
