Feature details

Business process flows provide a guided way to get work done in the form of stages and steps. Stages tell you where you are in the process, whereas steps are action items that lead to a desired outcome. Steps in a business process are bound to fields in Common Data Service and, until now, only allowed default visualizations of the field type (text boxes, drop-down lists, and so on).

Custom controls in a business process flow

With this release, we're making it possible to use the new Form designer to add these custom controls to your flow. This makes it possible to use custom controls to add rich visualizations (such as sliders, radial knobs, the LinkedIn control, and more) to business process flow steps and then deliver engaging experiences to those who use your business process flows.
