B3_FORMS vs B3_FORMS2
- Dominik Lindenberger
From version 22.0 onwards, Part Requirements are modeled using B3_FORMS2. If you are familiar with the previous configuration of Part Requirements, called B3_FORMS in the admin panel, we’ll explain to you how it translates to the newer version, called B3_FORMS2.
The configuration of Forms has received a couple of new elements that will allow us in the future to better group and structure Part Requirement Forms.
B3_FORMS | B3_FORMS2 |
|---|---|
Form | Form |
- | Form Step |
- | Form Step Group |
Form Field | Property |
This overview shows how Form Field Types map to Property Types and Display Types.
Form Step and Form Step Group are additional structuring elements. They need to be configured already in the admin panel, although the UI does not display them yet.
Form Field Type (B3_FORMS) | Property Type (B3_FORMS2) | Display Type |
|---|---|---|
Boolean | Boolean | (boolean) Checkbox |
Text | String | (string) Multi-Line |
String | (string) Single-Line | |
Integer | Integer | (integer) Number |
Float | Float | (float) Number |
Choice | Choice | (choice) Drop-down |
(choice) Radio | ||
Multiple Choice | Multiple-Choice | (multiple-choice) Drop-down |
Date | Date | (date) Date |
The Display Type determines how an input field is shown to users in the UI.
