Description Thomas Schmidt 2004-09-17 16:28:23 UTC

It would be nice to have the possibility to have a Custom-Function 
connected with the integrity-check of a Databit. 
Example: 
- I have dependencies that one of two fields has to be filled in. 
- One field only has to be filled in if another field is set to "yes" 
- One field may contain numbers from 1-100 and the Value "HOLD" 

I have implemented these dependencies in Conditions. 
But the User won't get the red highlighted fields in his Task and an errormessage. 
He is just redirected to do the Dataedit-Task again.

interesting feature: 
Workflows can define their own custom datatypes, 
and provide a piece of code that verifies them. 
(for very special datatypes, eg unity-id, or databits that 
can only be verified in connection with other data)

another idea: 
with the new datasets that are independant from a workflow, 
we could make the fields dynamic, means 
we could implement an "add" button to let the user add a Databit of 
any type to his workflows dataset.

workflows can add databits dynamically, we will add new datatypes as we need them.
