Unable to generate fields for pagelists in PDF from e-form
SA-82740
Summary
Unable to generate PDF elements for pagelists while creating a PDF from e-form.
Error Messages
Not Applicable.
S TEPS TO REPRODUCE
- Log in to the application
- Create an e-form rule and e-form map rule
- Run the flow. An option to dynamically populate data from e-form for list values is not present
Root Cause
This is as per Pega Product design.
Resolution
Here's the explanation for the reported behavior:
E-form rule uses iText API to set the fields that are already present on the PDF form. It does not allow to add a list dynamically in the PDF form. The rule refers to the field by ID, so there is no way to generate fields for dynamic list in the PDF using e-form.
