Flow Design Page Properties

These are the Flow Design page properties shown in the Properties view when no objects in the Flow Design page are selected.

General

Property Description
Module name The name of the module.
Module version The version of the module.
Module description Enter a description for the module.
Module display name Enter the name that appears on the workflow application when it is viewed on the client.
Delete message after processing If this option is selected, server-initiated workflow messages are removed from the device Inbox after they have been processed. A message is considered to have been processed if the corresponding workflow application is closed as a result of an asynchronous submit menu item being activated.
Mark message as processed after processing If this option is selected, server-initiated workflow messages are marked as processed in the device Inbox (indicated by a green check mark over the original icon) after they have been processed. A message is considered to have been processed if the corresponding workflow application is closed as a result of an asynchronous submit menu item being activated.
Client icon Select the icon that appears on the client.
Credentials cache key Specify a key to use for the credential starting point. If you do not enter anything, each workflow will have a different credentials key. If there is more than one workflow with the same credentials key, then all of those workflows can share the same credentials so that authentication for each workflow does not have to be separately defined.
Requires activation key Specify a key to use for activation. If you do not enter anything, each workflow will have a different activation key, which means that each workflow will have to be activated separately. If you specify an activation key, then when you activate one workflow, all the other workflows sharing the specified activation key are automatically activated.

Rulers and grid

Property Description
Display
  • Show ruler
  • Show grid
  • Grid in front
Measurement
  • Ruler units
  • Grid spacing
Grid line
  • Color
  • Style
Snap to grid Automatically align objects to the grid lines on the canvas.
Snap to shapes Position objects to grid lines that go through the vertical and horizontal edges of other objects.

Localization

Property Description
New Launch the New Locale wizard and create a new locale file for the mobile workflow application.
Update Update the currently loaded locale file.
Load Load a locale properties file to the Mobile Workflow Designer.
Validate Select a locale properties file and click to validate.
Edit Select the locale properties file, then click to edit the locale properties file.
Remove Select the locale properties file to remove, then click to remove.

Matching rules

Any existing matching rules appear in the matching rules Properties view. Matching rules determine how notifications are redirected at runtime.

Property Description
New Create a new matching rule.
Delete Select a matching rule and click to delete.
Edit Select a matching rule and click to edit.

Authentication

Property Description
Use static credentials Select when the authentication field is the same for all users accessing the resource.
Use SUP server connection profile authentication Use properties from the connection profile to supply credential data for authentication. This is similar to hard-coded credentials but the credentials are taken from the specified server connection profile instead of being specified in the Mobile Workflow Forms Editor.
Use hard-coded credentials Specify a user name/password combination for authentication.
User name This field is editable only if you selected the hard-coded credentials option. Enter the user name to use for authentication.
Password This field is editable only if you selected the hard-coded credentials option. Enter the password to use for authentication.
Use certificate-based credentials Click Generate from Certificate to select a certificate file from which to generate authentication. Once you choose the certificate to use, these fields are filled in automatically.
  • Issuer – the issuer of the certificate
  • Subject – the value of the subject field in the metadata of the certificate as defined in the X.509 standard
  • Valid from – the date the certificate is valid from
  • Valid to – the date the certificate is valid to
Unwired Server domain Optionally specify the Sybase Unwired Platform domain to use. If specified, a context variable is created in the application for which the initial value is set to this domain. At runtime, when determining authentication, @<domain> is added to the user name, thus allowing the user access to that domain.
Note: When you create a new security configuration that includes the SAPSSOTokenLoginModule, and deploy it to a new domain, if the mobile workflow application uses the MBOs associated with the new security configuration, you must specify an Unwired Server domain that corresponds to the domain using the security configuration. See the Sybase Unwired Platform Security guide for more information about security configurations.
