The article outlines the general form settings |
In the UI builder interface, users can set general settings for the form. These settings can be accessed in two ways:
- When users navigate to the UI builder page, they are presented with options to set general settings for the form.
- Users can also access the general settings for the form by clicking on the name of the form in the form outline. This action opens a sidebar where users can modify the form's general settings.
These settings include:
The logical id of the form (Questionnaire resource), as used in the URL for the resource. Once assigned, this value never changes.
{% hint style="info" %} When saving the form, Aidbox check the id for uniqueness {% endhint %}
A short, descriptive, user-friendly title for the questionnaire.
This is the id that will be used to link a QuestionnaireResponse to the Questionnaire the response is for. It is used to identify this questionnaire when it is referenced in a specification, model, design or an instance; also called its canonical identifier.
{% hint style="info" %} URL is generated automatically. A custom prefix can be specified in the Aidbox Forms module settings. {% endhint %}
The identifier that is used to identify this version of the questionnaire when it is referenced in a specification, model, design or instance. This is an arbitrary value managed by the questionnaire author and is not expected to be globally unique.
There may be different questionnaires that have the same url but different versions. The version can be appended to the url in a reference to allow a reference to a particular business version of the questionnaire with the format.
{% hint style="info" %}

An identifier for this collection of questions in a particular terminology such as LOINC. It allows linking of the complete Questionnaire resources to formal terminologies.
Questionnaire contains an element "meta", which is a set of metadata that provides technical and workflow context to the resource.
Tag is an metadata item. Tags are used to relate resources to process and workflow.
For example, you can use custom form typing and in order to filter the required form types you can use the tag mechanism for this.
You can set the show outline and see how it will look in the form preview. An outline with top-level groups will be displayed on the left side of the form.
This feature is convenient to use if the form is very large and you need to navigate through it.
In order to pre-fill the form with data that is in the database. You need to define the incomming parameters for the form, which will then be used in specific fields that you want to pre-fill with data.
Parameters that can be passed to form's launch process. Parameters should be enabled before use. Every parameter will be available in populate expressions via it's name
Patient %patient
Encounter %encounter
Location %location
User %user
Study %study
Named expressions can be also used in data pre-population process.
They are useful when:
- you need an additional information, that is not exists in incoming parameters
- you want to share some common pre-calculation with other populate expressions
They can be referenced with %expr-name
literal.
Example: %patient.name.first().given
where %patient
is
an expression name patient, prefixed with % symbol.

Max Form Width:
- The default form width is set to 960 pixels.
- User can adjust the maximum width of the form based on your preferences. The form will be displayed at the maximum width, provided that the device on which the form is opened supports this size.
- User can define this value via SDCconfig and then all forms will have the set width by default. If you set the form width value in the form itself, then this value will override what is in the SDCconfig.
To ensure the form appears as intended, you can use the Form Preview feature to see how the form looks with the specified maximum width.
