NC4 - E Team - R9.8 E Team Form Builder - E Team Custom Controls

E Team's form builder is delivered with a set of custom controls that closely mimic common features contained on core E Team forms. Although these controls provide the same functionality found within E Team, there may be a few differences in the look and feel of the controls themselves.

E Team custom controls MUST NOT be added to custom tabs, as this functionality is already built into the E Team forms to which a tab would be published. In addition, Custom Controls MUST NOT be nested when added to a form design.
