A popup confirmation widget.

A popup showing up to confirm or decline the execution of a certain Microflow (Currently we're creating a popup object that is deleted after the MF has been executed).

The widget needs to have at least the following features:

  • Popup can be triggered from either a MF or invoke button/action trigger
  • Free input text to give user information (with localization)
    • e.g. Do you really want to continue
  • Two buttons to which MF's can be attached (to either execute the MF or decline and rollback)
    • e.g. Yes: execute MF1, No: execute MF2
  • The popup needs to be styled according to the application theme

Extension of reference selector drop-downs.

1) If shown attribute is not unique show a second attribute behind the first on

2) If too many records are returned do not give an error, but for example:

a. show a form

b. make the last line mention 'next chunk' for more results

c. just indicate more results (see 3 for coping with this)

3) Allow filtering data by selecting characters that do a leading LIKE 'chars%'

4) Maybe an option to require a minimal amount of characters before the search is done

5) Maybe a user option to select what he wants: dropdown or form?

A checkbox list to define a configuration.

For example products (e.g. a phone) can be sold with option 'headset' and color 'white'. Customers buy the phone in a shop and can select those options for the actual order. Another example is events with options like workshops and sessions on which you can subscribe.
