Setting the requiredness of form fields (or item list columns) depending on changes in values made in other fields is one of the most frequently used functionality of the WEBCON BPS system. In the previous version of the system, such a configuration required the developer to perform configuration activities in several system places. From version 2021.1.4.36, new built-in functions have been enhanced to WEBCON BPS. These functions are used to set the requiredness of fields on the form. They allow you to configure the form in terms of dynamic setting mandatory fields to be completed.

Rules will be presented using the “Change value of single field” action which has been configured for each rule separately.

The coloring of the item lists is shown on the example of a process for handling orders in a restaurant. The process has two form fields – Total number of orders and Orders – delivered, and one item list – Orders (that contains all orders). For each order, the Status field is set that informs the employee about the current status of the order.
