Reusable components are elements in your application that you can share among case types or within a specific case type. For example, you can collect loan information from an applicant on one form and display it for review by a manager on another form. You can also reference the same data type on forms that are used by different case types.
Reusable components save time and avoid duplication. They can also integrate data with case types that are in your application. Search for similar fields in the Reuse fields panel before you create or update a form in Form Builder.
Each element that you create in Form Builder is automatically eligible for reuse. The following restrictions apply when reusing components on a form:
You cannot change the field type.
The fields that are contained in a reused form are read only.
You cannot change the class of a field group or repeating field group.
You cannot change the data type that is associated with a data reference.
Caution: If you change the name of a field after you reuse it on a form, your application creates a new field with the new name.
