The mobile view of a user form is mandatory if you want to depict the respective steps in the JobRouter app. As not every form element can be depicted in the mobile view and some elements are not suitable for mobile use, only a limited number of form elements is supported in the mobile view.
In return, there are additional form elements in the JobRouter app, such as the barcode scanner, that cannot be used in the Desktop Client.
Please see the chapter Form elements.
Please note that the number of supported form elements for the mobile view also differs depending on whether the view was rendered in the JobRouter app or the Mobile Client (call of the form in the web browser of a mobile device).
If no mobile view was defined for a form, the depiction of the form on the browser of the mobile device is also performed in Desktop view. Without mobiel view no steps are depicted in the JobRouter app. They can only be processed on the Desktop Client.
In the mobile view the following additional functions are available:
Function |
Definition |
|---|---|
Active/disabled |
With this switch a form can be activated or disabled. If the mobile form is not active, the Desktop view of it will be displayed on the mobile device. |
Apply form elements |
Here form elements from the Desktop view can be applied for the mobile view. |
Delete mobile form |
Here you can delete mobile forms. By doing so the form goes automatically into the disabled mode and the Desktop view of the form is displayed on the mobile device. |
Contrary to the described form structure above, the following limitations apply for the utilization of the mobile view:
•All elements are displayed in one column in the JobRouter app, even if they are displayed in two columns in the form editor.
•The following form element types are available: BLANK, CHECKBOX, DATE, DECIMAL, DESCRIPTION, FILE, LIST, RADIO, SQLLIST, Text, TEXTAREA, TEXTBOX
•Not all JavaScript API can be used (for further information, please see the JavaScript API manual or the chapter JavaScript).
