New Interfaces button

Rw step

Fill out the three fields of the details panel.

Interface Details panel

Field

Description

Name 

Users will not see this name; it is for internal reference only. Name it in a way that can be recognized by your co-workers for its function.

Description

A more in-detail description of the interface, used for internal reference.

Interface Key

Create a short code name for the interface. This key can then be referenced and called by JavaScript code, for example, to open this wizard from another wizard.

Rw step

(Optional) If necessary, add Included or Excluded Pooled Actors (you only need one or the other) in the respective panels. Click Quick Select in the top right corner of the panel and choose from the list of Roles.

  • Included Pooled Actors are the user roles that can access the interface.

  • Excluded Pooled Actors are the user roles that cannot access the interface.

  • If no roles are added to these panels, then all users will be able to see this interface.

Troubleshooting: If you receive an error “Exception while adding unbound Included (Excluded) Pooled Actors attribute values”, try the following:

  1. Remove the Included or Excluded Pooled Actors.

  2. Save and Close.

  3. Re-open the interface and add the Included/Excluded Pooled Actors again.

  4. Save and Close again. This should allow those users/data roles to be applied after the interface is successfully created. If you continue to receive an error, please contact Engineering for assistance.
