Question

Tab View for Navigation through Steps

Hi Team,

We need to show four tabs in our site's homepage and all the tabs are different interfaces which are interlinked.

The first tab/page is a action whose context is a process model with a startform. How should i configure it in the 1st tab page. Below is my code for tabs UI:

So here I am trying to call the process model for first page with a!startProcessLink but i is not working. Can anyone please suggest what should be done here?

Thanks.

Hm ... a link field can show some text and a user can click that text to navigate somewhere else.

It seems like you try to "embed" the process start form into this tab? That does not work. You would need to call the start form interface in place of the linkfield. And then start the process from that form.

Hi Stefan,

Calling the interface in place of link field.. how will this trigger the process model? I did not get the option, could you please explain.

Thanks

As I explained, that will not trigger the process. But you cannot embed a process into a user interface.

Make the submit button in the interface starting the process.
