Form Field Sync: List of fields that will be synced for excluded forms

Change the default so that form synchronization is off for all forms unless a form has explicitly been approved for sync automation. As a default, forms can have certain Quik prefixes enabled/disabled for syncing within a bundle. Best practice would be to have syncing off by default. This avoids the issue where two forms within the same bundle may have the same field names, but different meanings. These issues typically present themselves on entity registration types where the owner field on the new account form and owner fields on other forms should not match.  

Info

Example: On an ACH/Transfer form for an entity account that has owner fields, these would usually be an Authorized Individual and not necessarily the primary owner (the entity). Only forms that have been explicitly reviewed by registration type and may have specific business rules built-in Forms Mapping should be allowed for syncing. This approach eliminates data syncing issues across forms. 

Configuring Form Field Sync

For Blue Arrows to work, you must enable three application preferences: 

  • pdf.edit.html5.prompting.enabled - enable prompting inside the PDF viewer

  • pdf.view.dropdown.include.forms- allow dropdowns to show data from the forms 

  • pdf.edit.alwaysSync.fieldNames - list the fields that will be synchronized for forms that are excluded from sync

Enable Prompting in the PDF Viewer

Search for “Form Fields Sync" or “List of fields” in the description field and ensure “contains” is selected in the drop-down, or “pdf.edit.alwaysSync.fieldNames"

Add a feature to the Blue Arrow dropdown select that will allow selection from Client Folder data, as well as data entered on this or another form in pull data from other forms that have been filled out in the work item. This is helpful for an advisor when Advisor when filling out paperwork in a bundle, as it allows to re-use data entered on a form that is not yet stored in the client folderClient Folder.

Configure Form Fields for Synchronization

Usually, the form fields get automatically populated by the data available in Client Folders or in other forms. As best practice, disable synchronization on all the forms and then explicitly approve sync for specific form fields.

This avoids the issue where two forms within the same bundle may have the same field names, but different meanings. These issues typically present themselves on entity registration types where the owner field on the new account form and owner fields on other forms should not match.  

Tip

To disable synchronization for specific forms, go to the Forms (222) domainand edit each Form as described here:
