Defining web service prompts

Define web service prompts representing web services and fields rendered on the user-defined screen using the Web Services Prompt Engine. System administrators can use web services to create user-defined screens for use within Infor EAM. Web service prompts contain the definitions for these screens.

The following rules apply to forms for which web service prompts are available:

The system displays the functions of all system-delivered Infor EAM List View and Record View pages.
BSCOMM (Comments) is displayed.
No user-created screens are available.

The system displays all screens meeting the above criteria if a web service has not been specified; otherwise, only screens related to the web service will be displayed.

To define web service prompts:

Open the Web Service Prompts form.
Click New Record.
Web Service Prompt—Enter a unique code for the web service prompt, and then enter a description of the prompt in the adjacent field.
Out of Service—Select to indicate the web service prompt is out of service.
Click Save Record.

Note: The system automatically creates a screen record whose code and description correspond with the web service prompt. The user-defined screen can now be placed into the menu for one or more user groups. These new screens are not visible on the Screens form.
