  1. The eDocLite Form Skeleton
    The Form Skeleton is the structure of the entire eDocLite form minus the Form Definition and Form Stylesheet. We separate this out so that you can use it as a base template for all of your eDocLite forms. This particular skeleton follows the scheme of the out-of-the-box Kuali Rice forms. The scheme uses the same look and feel and makes calls to the eDocLite widgets on the Kuali Rice server.

  2. Form Definition
    The Form Definition defines the data entry fields on the form. Our definitions define field display characteristics and field validations. Place your form definition between the <edl> and </edl> tags in the Form Skeleton.

  3. Form Stylesheet
    The Form Stylesheet defines the layout of the form and renders the fields from our Form Definition onto the form. Our layout is an HTML table with a row for each field. In this case, we are customizing the mainBody piece of the stylesheet. In general, place your form stylesheet between the <style> and </style> tags in the Form Skeleton.

Create Rule Attribute

Here we create a Rule Attribute that is associated with the isUrgent field in the form. Let's use <process name>.eDoc.<rule attribute name>.RuleAttribute to name our rule attributes and <process name>.eDoc.RuleAttributes to name the associated XML file defining our collection of rule attributes.

</data>


Create Rule Templates

Here we create several Rule Templates that are applied to each route node. Let's use <process name>.eDoc.<rule template name>.RuleTemplate to name our rule templates and <process name>.eDoc.RuleTemplates to name the associated XML file defining our collection of rule templates.
