Windows Designer Administration Form
This form is the main point of entry into Windows Designer and consists of two tabs:
Forms Tab
This tab contains the basic details of the customisation, and lets you make the customisation available to companies, users, and teams in your organisation.
Options Reference
Each option and field on the form is described below. Mandatory options and fields are highlighted in red.
Form
Search for the form that you want to customise by entering all or part of its name in this field. A list of forms with names that match what you type appears below this field.
If there's text in the Company field, you can type that in the Form field to search for customisations related to specific companies in your organisation.
Active
Determines whether or not the customised form is available for use. This option is selected by default.
Customisation Name
Enter a descriptive name for your copy of the form. This name identifies the customisation in Greentree Desktop. Entering a name in this field does not change the wording that appears in the form's title bar.
Customised
Select this option to display only customised forms in the list.
Author
The name of the Greentree Desktop user who created the customisation. The default value is the name of the user currently logged into Greentree Desktop. You can change the name by typing in this field. You can enter the author's name in the Form field to search for all of the custom forms that user created.
Company
Optionally, the name of the company that the customisation is associated with. You can enter the name of the company in the Form field to search for all of the company's custom forms.
Description
Optionally, enter a detailed description of the customisation. The description can, for example, explain why you created the customisation or include a list of what you changed on the form.
Designer
Click this button to open the Editor Palette, which you use to modify controls on this copy of the form.
Companies Tab
Select the companies that can use the customisation. Select one or both of these options:
- Available - The customisation is available to users and teams, but needs to be explicitly assigned to them.
- Default - The customisation replaces the form it's based on. It doesn't delete the form. If you deselect this option, the companies in your organisation use the original form.
Teams Tab
Click the Assigned option beside the names of the teams that can use this form.
Users Tab
Click the Assigned option beside the names of the users who can use this form.
Assignments Tab
Use this tab to manage permissions for all of the forms - whether default or customised - that a company, user, or team has permissions to use. Using the Assignments tab, you can manage access in one location. You don't need to log into each company a user or team works across to manage their access to forms.
Options Reference
Each option and field on the form is described below. Mandatory options and fields are highlighted in red.
Team
Select the team whose access to forms you want to manage.
User
Select the user whose access to forms you want to manage.
Company
