Home page navigation aids


The easiest way to navigate users back to the home page from a form is by adding a Home Page form action button to the form. In a browser, the home page always opens in a new window. Forms displayed in a browser include the Home button as a required form action field in the toolbar. (For more information, see Adding-form-action-fields-to-a-form.)  

To add a Home Page form action field to a form

  1. Open the form in Developer Studio.
  2. Select Form > Add Form Action Fields.
  3. From the list of Form Action Fields, select Home Page.
    The Home button appears on your form.
  4. Position Home as needed.
  5. Save the form.

To create Run Process workflow that returns to the home page

Adding a Run Process command to workflow provides more flexibility than simply adding a Home Page form action button to a form. For example, you can create an entry point guide that opens a form and lets users perform specific tasks. The last action in the guide can be a Run Process action that returns the user to the home page. 

  1. Add a button field to your form and name it Go Home.
  2. Save the form.
  3. Create an active link that executes on the Go Home button.
  4. Create a Run Process If action with the following Run Process syntax:

    PERFORM-ACTION-GO-HOME
  5. Save the active link.
