About accessible forms

Overview

You include in your application work object forms that are designed to meet the accessibility guidelines established by Section 508 of the United States Rehabilitation Act, the Web Accessibility Initiative, and the Disability Discrimination Act. This is accomplished through enabling technology that provides the constructs to design and build accessible applications. The resulting forms can operate in conjunction with screen reader software such as JAWS for Windows®.

Accessibility features and controls are enabled by granting user access to the PegaWAI RuleSet. Developers may use these features:

• Standard HTML Property rules with the Accessibility option (on the HTML tab) set to as On.
• The ability to record accessibility on the HTML tab of section and flow action rules
• Reports and charts in the Application Preflight tool

See Pega Developer Network article PRKB-25255 Accessibility — Supported features.
