Generic Screen Configuration

You can configure the generic screen graphical user interface (GUI) to allow users to specify different input variables.

Use the Rulebase to modify generic screen based on the following input parameters:

  • OUTPUT_FORMAT
  • MASTERCATALOGNAME
  • ORGANIZATION_TYPE
  • ACTION

An example of a variable declaration for input parameters is the values of these input parameters are always uppercase and need to be compared to uppercase strings. Based on the input parameters above, the following variables can be assigned for customization:

  • ATTRIBUTE_LIST
  • ACTION_LIST
  • USERDEFINED_LIST
  • CREDENTIAL_LIST

An example of the variable declaration is configuring the ATTRIBUTE_LIST. The values assigned to the ATTRIBUTE_LIST output variable are used to populate format-specific attributes of the catalog. You use a constraint tag, based on a condition, to modify the ATTRIBUTE_LIST output variable.

<var>OUTPUT_FORMAT</var>

<var>ATTRIBUTE_LIST</var>
