What is an mForms selection formula?
This is a Lotus Notes formula that can be executed to select a subset of documents in a database. mForms application definitions use these to select documents to send to mobile devices. They are similar to Lotus Notes view selection formulas - the only difference being that, in mForms, the SELECT keyword should not be used. For example, if you want the mobile device to receive all documents that have a form of "My_Form", a suitable mForms selection formula would be:
@Lowercase(Form) = "my_form"
| 1. | Expand the Applications node in the navigation tree, right mouse click mForms Selection Formulae and choose New > mNotes/mForms Formula. |
| 2. | This will launch the mNotes and mForms formula Wizard, on the Welcome screen, press Next to continue. |
| 3. | On the General Settings enter a name for the formula, the type of the formula in this case should always be Selection Formula. Check the Active checkbox. Optionally you can enter a description of your application. In the field formula you need to enter the selection formula constructed in the Notes @Formula language. This will be validated when you press the green ü button to the right of the Formula window. Make sure that the formula validates before you click the Next button to continue. |
| 5. | Click Finish to complete the procedure. The application can now be deployed. |
See Defining mForms Applications for information on how to configure an mForms application to use a formula.
