• Go to the context menu of the Forms special folder, or any folder under the Forms special folder in the Project Explorer and click New > Form.

• Of these approaches, the first two are equivalent. Both of these approaches trigger the opening of the New Form dialog as shown in Figure 76.Figure 76New Form Dialog
You need to specify the Form type on the New Form dialog. The type of form that is selected here determines the components that are initially part of the form model. The form types details are as follows:
• Process task: This creates a form that is the same as one created from a User Task in a process definition. It will contain a root pane, a toolbar with Cancel, Close, and Submit buttons, and a messages pane for displaying error messages.
• Pageflow task: This creates a form that is the same as one created from a User Task in a Pageflow Process. The only difference to a Process task form is that the toolbar contains only Cancel and Submit buttons. The Close operation is not supported in pageflows since there is no way to re-open a step in a pageflow once it has been closed.
• Embeddable: This creates a form that is suitable for embedding within another form. This will only contain a single root pane. This is because the parent form would typically contain the toolbar and messages pane, so these components are not needed in an embeddable form.The other two approaches are equivalent. They will generate a form that has parameters and a user interface component corresponding to each of the parameters in the user task interface. For more information on creating a new form for a user task, refer BPM Implementation Guide, Chapter 4, Using Forms for User Tasks.
