What are we going to build?

A  workflow is a series of routed forms that can now run on all devices including the iPhone and the iPad. In this tutorial, we will create a workflow that can be used when on boarding a new employee joining your company. There will be three participants: the new employee, the new employee's manager and an employee that works for the company HR department. The new employee will complete four forms: Employee Information, W-4 Allowances, Education History and will have an opportunity to confirm the entered data with their signature on a Confirmation form by reviewing a W  - 4 generated pdf. These four forms are referred to as a screen flow. A screen flow consists of steps in a workflow that are performed by the same person. The new employee will complete the screen flow from an iPad and the task will be sent to the new employee's manager for approval. The approval step will be performed on an iPhone using the Quick Approval feature. Once the task is approved, it will go to the HR department for finalization and storage. This tutorial will cover the following:

• Create the Screen flow using the PageBreak control to design the forms for a mobile device, in this case, the iPad. The screen flow includes a confirmation form for the new employee to review the generated W-4 pdf. The Confirmation form utilizes the v5 Form Viewer and Signature controls. 
• Create the Approval form using the Quick Approval feature. This step will be performed on the iPhone by the manager.
• Create the desktop form for the company HR department
• Create the Employee On Boarding flow. Assign an icon to it.
• Generate an additional PDF for the federal W - 4 forms 
  
  • Add a field for the signature to the W-4 Acroform using PDFescape.
  • Upload the W-4 template, download the mapper.
  • Map the e-form controls to the Acroform field  and upload the modified mapper.
• Create the  roles and users needed.
• Create a  space.
• Test the flow on the iPad, iPhone and desktop 

What are we going to need

1. An iPad, iPhone and desktop computer
2. You will need to download an Acroform for the W-4 form. You can find the latest version of the Acroform here. Right click and save the form to your desktop. Open the form. Notice the name field on the acroform is a combination of the new employee's first name and middle initial and there is no Writable field in the PDF for the Employee's Signature. 
3. A PDF viewer such as Adobe Reader - version 11 or higher or Mac Preview and a PDF editor such as PDFescape. 

Setup users and roles

We will need three roles: employee, manager and hr. To create these roles in :

If you are using  Online, go directly to Step 5.  in-house users will have to create a tenant first before adding roles/users. Follow Steps 1-4 to do that:

1. Login as the  in-house superuser admin.
2. Click the  icon to create a new tenant
3. Fill in the screen. Refer to this documentation for information details.
4. Click the Submit button. Logoff as the superuser.
5. Login to  as the administrative user for your tenant.
6. If you do not already see the Manage Tenant page, click the Manage link at the top right of the page.
7. On the page that is displayed, click the "Manage Roles" link.
8. Click the  icon and in the form that is displayed, type in the desired role. Note that role names are case sensitive.
9. Repeat for the second and third roles.

The admin user will also need to setup three users, assigning one of the three roles to each one:

1.  Login to  as the administrative user for your tenant.
2. If you do not already see the Manage Tenant page, click the Manage link at the top right of the page.
3. On the page that is displayed, click the "Manage Users" link.
4. Click on the  Add User icon.
5. Complete the new user form for Jerry Mouse, the manager, Tom Cat, the employee (Select Jerry from the Reports dropdown for user Tom) and Sue Smart - HR personnel
6. Assign the roles shown in the image above to the users. 
7. Submit the form.
8. Make one more user named designer and assign this user the frevvo.Designer role. Use the designer user to create the Employee On Boarding flow. 

Create the Screen Flow

It is very important to keep in mind the screen sizes of the devices you are targeting when designing forms for mobile devices The screen flow for this tutorial consists of four forms: Employee Information, W-4 Allowances, Education History and Confirmation. It is intended that the new employee will complete the screen flow on an iPad. Let's begin with a close look at how the PageBreak control can be used to divide the Employee information form into sections that will make it very easy to fill in the information on the iPad. 

Typically, information about a new employee would include: name, address, SSN, Telephone Numbers, email address and possibly a profile photo. Creating this form for a desktop view would be very simple in the  designer. A form designed for the desktop could look like the image below:  Mobile forms work best when they are broken up into small, logical pieces. The PageBreak control lets the designer create a mobile layout consisting of multiple pages where each page contains a small number of controls (logical groupings). The user navigates between the pages via Back/Next buttons, or on a device that supports it, by swiping left/right. We will use panels and sections plus the PageBreak control to illustrate these concepts.

Employee Information Form designed for a Desktop browser

Refer to Designing Forms for in-depth information on the  features and controls described in the steps below:  

Create the Employee Information Form

Logon to  as a designer. We will create the screenflow in the Forms designer and then drag them into the Flow designer to make the Employee On Boarding flow. Click the  to create a new Application. Click on the  to edit that application. Invoke the new form wizard by clicking on the  New icon at the top of the Forms Home Page. Click the Next button to navigate through the wizard. Name the form Employee Information. 

• Drag and drop an image control from the palette to the canvas. Use this to upload a company logo image, if desired.
• Drag a message control from the palette and drop it under your logo. Type the text "New Employee Onboarding Form" in the message area. You can bold the text by checking bold on the Style tab for the message control.
• Drag and Drop a date control and label it Date of Birth. Select a format from the Date Format dropdown. Check Required on the date control's property panel.
• Add a text control below the date of birth. Change the label to "Your Manager Is". Change the name of the control to manager. Uncheck the enabled property for that control. We'll use a rule to fill in the new employee and manager's names using the _data.getParameter.

• Drag a panel from the palette and drop it on the designer canvas below the Your Manager Is control. We will refer to this as the main panel.
• Drop a text control inside the main panel. Uncheck the visible property for this control. Name this field FirstPlusInitial. This control will not be visible on the form. We will use a rule to combine the new employee's first name and middle initial and populate this field with that information. Then we will map the FirstPlusInitial field in the mapper for the W - 4 pdf later in this tutorial.
• Drop two more panels into the main panel ABOVE the FirstPlusInitial control. Change the widths of these two panels to 55% and 39% respectively.
• Drag and drop a text control with a label of First Name inside the first panel and a text control named Initial into the second panel. Check the required property on the FirstName field but do not make the control named Initial required. 
• Add a text control to the MAIN panel underneath the FirstPlusInitial control. Label it Last Name. Check the Required Property.
• Add a text control to the MAIN panel below the LastName - name it SSN. A pattern can be used to ensure the correct format number for the Social Security Number. Here is an example of a valid pattern: \d{3}-\d{2}-\d{4}. Apply this pattern to the field by typing it into the Pattern field on the Control property pane.  will display an error message if the entered data does not match the Make sure the required property is checked. 
• Add a phone control below SSN in the MAIN panel. Name the control Phone. Help text showing different formats for the phone number is provided when you add the control to the form.

Here is what the MAIN panel should look like at this point:

• We will now add another panel similar to the one we just built to collect Address information from the new employee. By default a panel's width is set to 49%, so when you drag two panels into your form, the second panel automatically will line up next to the first panel. We will call this the second panel.
• Drag the MAIN panel to the left of the second panel for now.
• Drag and drop two text fields into this panel for the street address and city. Label them Street and City. Make them both Required.
• Drag and drop an email control into the address panel. Label it Personal Email Address.
• Drag and drop two more panels into the second panel below the Personal Email Address. Give one of the panels a width of 44% and the other one should have a width of 45%.
• Drag a dropdown control from the palette and drop it in the 44% width panel. Name it State and make it Required. Type in the names of some states into the Options section on the dropdown control property pane:

• Drop a text control into the last panel added. Label it Zip Code and make it Required. Designate a Max Length of 5 characters.
• Drag the panels with the State and Zip Code controls above the Personal Email Address control. Rearrange them if necessary.

 The MAIN and Second panel should look like this:

• Click the Finish button to save the work we have done.
• On the Forms Home Page, Click the  icon for the Employee Information form to continue editing.
• Add a  hidden text control named FullAddress beneath the panels that will be populated with the City or Town, State and Zip Code via a rule. Uncheck the Visible and Enabled properties. Click the Style tab on the Properties pane and make the width 95%. This hidden field will then be mapped for the W - 4 pdf.  
• takes full advantage of the cameras built into mobile devices. You can give the new employee an opportunity to attach a profile picture by adding the new enhanced Upload Control to your form below the FullAddress hidden field. Users will see a prompt on mobile devices giving the user a choice to upload an  existing  image or take a photo with the device camera. 

You can specify the allowed file types to be uploaded by checking selections in the Restricted Content Types section on the Properties pane. For Example, check png if you only want to allow the upload of files with that extension.

•  Drag and drop a section below the Upload control. Name it Hidden for Office Use Only. Add a text field for the Employer Name and another one for the Employer Identification Number. Type the Employer's Name and Address into one and the Employer's Identification Number (EIN) into the other. Uncheck the visible property on the section control. This section will remain hidden on the form but we will map it later for the W - 4 pdf.          

The Employee Information form should look like this at this point:

• Click the Finish button to save the work we have done.
• On the Forms Home Page, click the icon for the Employee Information form to continue editing.
• Rules add behaviors to forms. We will add 4 rules to this form to accomplish the following:
  • The first rule will fill in the First and Last Name of the new employee and the name of the manager they report to, from the login information using the _data.getParameter.
  • The second rule will combine the employee's First Name and Initial and store it in the hidden field called FirstPlusInitial
  • The third rule will combine the City, State and Zip Code information and store it in the hidden field called FullAddress
  • The fourth rule will work with the GPS features on mobile devices detect the new employee's location information when they are filling in the Employee Information form.
• Click on the Rules button on the designer toolbar to access the Rules Editor. Click the icon then the  icon to open the Rules validator screen. Give your rule a meaningful name: in this case we will call it Form Load. Copy/Paste the rule below into the rules canvas.

if (form.load)
{
  FirstName.value = _data.getParameter("subject.first.name");
  LastName.value = _data.getParameter("subject.last.name");
  manager.value = _data.getParameter("subject.reports.to");
}

• Click the  icon to collapse the rule window and then click the  icon to add the second rule. Call this rule Combine First Name and Initial. Copy/Paste the rule below into the rules canvas.

FirstPlusInitial.value = FirstName.value + ' ' + Initial.value;

• Click the icon to collapse the rule window and then click the icon to add the third rule. Call this rule Full Address. Copy/Paste the rule below into the rules canvas.

FullAddress.value = City.value + ' ' + State.value + ' ' + ZipCode.value;

• lets you take advantage of the iPad's location services. The  Geo-location feature works with rules. Below is an example of a rule that fills in the street, city, state and zip controls each time the location is updated.  For now, add this rule to your form now and we will turn the feature on in the flow later in this tutorialClick the icon to collapse the rule window and then click the icon to add the fourth rule. Call this rule Location. Copy/Paste the rule below into the rules canvas.  

if (form.positionUpdated) {
  var x = _data.getParameter ("position.street_number");
  Street.value = _data.getParameter ("position.street_number") + ' ' + _data.getParameter ("position.route");
  City.value = _data.getParameter ("position.locality");
  State.value = _data.getParameter ("position.administrative_area_level_1");
  ZipCode.value = _data.getParameter ("position.postal_code");
}

•  Refer to the Rule Validator for help in troubleshooting if there are any issues with the rules that we are adding to the form.
• Click the Controls button in the designer toolbar to return to the form. Your rules will be saved.
• As a precaution, click the Finish button to preserve the work we have done so far.
• On the Forms Home Page, click the icon for the Employee Information form to continue editing.
• Although  automatically adjusts to the screen size of a mobile device, the PageBreak control gives the forms designer a tool to specify the sections of your form that appear on a page. Drag and drop a PageBreak control below the manager control. Click on the PageBreak control and notice the property pane shows both phone and tablet checked. This is the default value and we will leave it as is. This will ensure that the controls above the first PageBreak will appear on the first page when the form is rendered on the iPad or the iPhone. 
• Drag another PageBreak control from the palette and hover between the MAIN and Second panels and drop it in the form. Check phone and uncheck tablet on the PageBreak property panel. With these PageBreaks in place, the MAIN and Second panels will appear as separate pages on the iPhone and iPad.
• Your form should look similar to the image below:

• Click the Finish button to save the Employee Information form.

Create the Allowances Form

In this form, we will collect information for the Personal Allowances section of the W - 4 Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate. The section is shown below. The e-form will have controls for the A, C, D allowances and a control to store the total number of allowances designated by the new employee.

• Create a simple form to collect this information. Name the form Allowances. Here is an example.  We will map the data in these fields, along with some others, to the W - 4 pdf later in this tutorial.

• Drag three Quantity controls from the palette and drop them on the designer canvas. Name them A_Allowance, C_Allowance and D_Allowance respectively. Type the instructions for A, C and D allowances as the labels for these controls. Add a fourth Quantity control where the result of the calculation of the total allowances can be stored. Name this control Total_Allowances and type "Total number of allowances you are claiming" as it's label. Uncheck the Enabled property for this control.
• Add a Wet Signature control so the Employee can sign using the a track pad/mouse or a touch screen to verify the allowance selections entered into the form. This is what the new employee will see when signing.

• Drag and drop a date control under the signature. Name it TodaySDate and uncheck the enabled property.
• We will use rules to calculate the total allowances and fill in the current date. Here's an example of a rule that will add the values for the A_Allowance, C_Allowance and D_allowance controls and store it in the Total_Allowances field. Use the Rule Validator to troubleshoot any issues.

Total_Allowances.value = A_Allowance.value +
                        C_Allowance.value +
                        D_Allowance.value;

Here is a rule to populate the Today's Date control when the form loads. Use the Rule Validator to troubleshoot any issues.

if (form.load ){    
TodaySDate.value = frevvo.currentDate(form); 
} 

•  Be sure to save your form by clicking on the Finish button in the designer.
•  You can test this form by clicking on the Test button on the Forms Home Page. The Today's Date should be populated with today's date and entering values in A_allowance, B_allowance,and C_allowance should show the summation in the Total_Allowances field.

Create the Education Form

Create an Education form similar to the image below. Use the table control to collect information about the new employee's Education. Name the table control Education History. Refer to this documentation for more information on how to add, move and remove columns in a table.

Education History form in the designer

Perform the following steps to create the grid :

• Delete one of the columns in the table by clicking on the column and then clicking on the  
• Drag and drop two quantity fields into the table to make the Start Year and End Year columns.
• Change the label of one of the columns you added to Start Year and the name of that column to StartYear. Change the label of the second column to End Year and the name of that column to EndYear
• Move the Start Year column to the leftmost postiion in the table and the End Year column to the right of the Start Year column .Move the columns by clicking in the column header and clicking the green arrow  that appears. Columns will move to the right each time you click on the arrow for that column.
• Move the other columns to get the Start and End Year columns in the correct positions.

• Change the label and name of the third column to Institution
• Make the Degree Attained column by dragging a dropdown control from the palette into the table.  Move it to the righmost position.
• Change the label of the fourth column to Degree Attained and its name to DegreeAttained.
• Changes made to one cell in a column will apply to all cells in the column. Click on one of the cells in the Degree Attained column. Specify choices for the Degree Attained in the Options section of the Property pane.  Here is an example:

  This is how the Degree Attained column in the table will look on the iPad.

• Click on the Table control then select the Style tab on the Properties panel. Enter these percentage values, separated by a space, to adjust the widths of the four columns: 10% 10% 50% 25%

• Click the FInish button to save the form.  

Create the Confirmation Form

The purpose of the Confirmation form in the Employee On Boarding flow is to give the new employee the opportunity to review the information in the generated W-4 PDF and then sign to indicate the information has been reviewed and verified.  Drag and Drop one Signature control from the palette to the form. Change the label of the Signature control to "Employee's Signature - by signing you agree to the content of the W-4 PDF Form". We will add the Form Viewer control to this form when we create the Employee On Boarding flow. This will display the section of the W - 4 Pixel Perfect PDF that we will map with the  data later in this tutorial.  

Create the Approval Form

This form will be used by the new employee's manager to approve or reject the screen flow. In this scenario, the manager, Jerry, will use his iPhone to perform this task when it appears in his Task List. You can use the  Quick View feature to make that process easy . Quick View requires an Approval control. An approval control is a section control in your form with a text area control inside of it. You can set up a signed section if you want the manager to sign after approving or rejecting the task . Drag and drop a section control into the Approval form. Name it Manager Review. Add a text area control for manager comments. Click on the Security tab for the section. Assign the role of manager from the role list. Choose Text/Signature Image or Wet Signature type from the dropdown for the signature type. Refer to Electronic Signatures for more information. Quick view is setup in the flow designer but it will not work if the form does not have an approval control in it. 

Be sure to click the Finish button to save the form.

Create the Office Use Only Form

The last step in the Employee On Boarding flow is performed by Sue, who works in the HR department of the company. Sue receives the task from the manager, Jerry and proceeds to complete the final form, sign it  and submit the data to the company database when it is completed. Create a form similar to the image below.

• Drag a section from the palette and drop it on the canvas. Select the HR role on the section security tab.
• Use a message control for the instruction: "Confirm that the new employee has completed the following:". One way to bold the message text  is to use HTML tags in the message control. For example, the text should be encased in <b>text</b>,  as shown in the image.

• Use the T/F control for the policy questions - Drag 4 of them from the palette into the section. Make sure they are below the Message control.
• Change the labels of the T/F Controls to: Read Harrassment Policy, Read Email Policy, Read Confidential Data Policy and Received the Employee Handbook.
• Add a Signature control or choose a Signature type from the dropdown on the Security tab of the section.
• Add a panel with a date control for the Performance Review Date and another panel with a dropdown control for the Pay Grade. 
• Move the two panels to the top of the form.

•  Click Finish to save the form.

Create the Employee On Boarding Flow

Open the Flow Designer by clicking on the Flows menu item. Click on the   icon to create the new Employee On Boarding flow. Drag and drop your Employee Information, Allowances, Education History, Confirmation, Approval and Office Use Only forms from the palette to the flow editor.  Review this documentation for information about the Flow step properties you can set up. In the image below, the new employee will see the Navigation toolbar to chart progress when filling out the screen flow. Set the Visibility to Public in Tenant. New employees will have to log onto the tenant to access the flow. Check to see that the deployment is set  to Production. Click on the Confirmation Form and customize the Button Label for this step of the flow to say "Send to Manager".

Click on the Office Use only form and select the HR role from the choices shown in the Role section of the Form Property panel. You can customize the Button Label to something like  "Send to ECM" if you want. Click on the Approval form and assign the role of manager. Continue to setup Quick View for the Approval form, Geo Location for the Employee Information form and Task Email notification for the flow.

Setup Quick View 

In our scenario, when the screenflow is completed by the new employee, the manager will receive a notification and access their Task List using a smart phone. The Quick View feature lets the manager review a summary of the information and quickly approve/reject the task.  

The Approval form consists of one section named Manager Review. This section has one control in it – a text area for comments and the Text/Signature image choice selected on the Security Tab. This section meets the criteria for an Approval Control and can be setup for the Quick View feature. Highlight the Approval form in the flow by clicking on it and then click on Setup Quick View in the Property pane:

1. The Setup Quick View wizard will display all sections of your form that meet the criteria of an Approval control. In this case, there should only by one - the Manager Review section of the Approval form.
2. Check the Enable box.
3. Type a Summary statement that will appear on the Task List, if desired. This is essentially the same as the Task Information. You can use Templatized Strings in your statement – clicking on the Control dropdown will list all the controls in all the forms in your flow in alphabetical order.
4. The Manager Review section should be listed in the Approval Control box.
5. Click the Finish button to close the wizard. You will see the lightening bolt on the Approval flow activity if Quick View is setup correctly.

You can customize the message the new employee will see upon completion of the screen flow by typing it into the Pending Message field on the Approval Form Property Panel. Here is an example: "Thank You {FirstName}. Your New Employee Package has been sent to your Manager for approval."  In this message, {FirstName} is a Templatized String, meaning it uses the data from the FirstName field on the form in the pending message.  

You can setup any control on the form that will give the manager more information on the task to be performed by using Templatized Strings in the Task Info field on the form's property panel. For Example, to display the new employee's Social Security Number in the task , type SSN: {SSN} in the Task Info field. SSN: will show as the label followed by the entered SSN.

Setup Task Notification Email

You can configure the email that is sent when the flow is put on someone's Task List. Jerry , the Manager, receives an email notifying him if there is a new task in the Task List. To set this up, click on the Approval form in the flow then click on the "Setup Task Notification Email" link and make changes to the Task Notification wizard. Notice the Templatized Strings in the message shown in the image below. Users with a manager role must have a valid email address to test this feature.

Click the Finish button to save your flow.

Generate the W - 4 "Pixel Perfect" PDF

If the W - 4 acroform that you downloaded does not have a writable field for the signature, follow these steps to add one using PDFescape: 

1. Navigate to the PDFescape website and upload the W-4 Acroform. It will open in the editor.
2. Click on Form Field on the menu on the left.

     3. Select Text as the field type from the dropdown. Then click on the Select box.

    4. Draw a rectangular field next to the Employee's Signature label shown in the red box in the image. Repeat for the Date field. Save and download the form. This modified Acroform will be used as our W4 template. We will upload it 

        to  later in the tutorial.

There is a three step process to configure PDF form generation.

• Upload a W-4 Acroform PDF as a template.
• Download a modified version of the uploaded PDF Acroform that contains mapping meta-data. The mapping meta data consists of available selections of appropriate e-form fields for each PDF Acroform field.
• Upload completed mappings for each PDF Acroform to Live Forms.

Gen Forms View

Open the Employee On Boarding workflow in the flow designer. Click on the Gen Forms button on the Toolbar to display the generated PDF forms view screen. Drag and drop the "New PDF Form" from the palette into the editor to create a new PDF form generation activity. The default name will be "Generated Form N", where N is a unique number starting at 1. Click on the activity to select it. Change the default name on the Properties Panel to Federal Forms. You may have to completely exit the flow and then go back in to see name changes.

Return to the Gen Forms Editor after you have changed the name of the PDF activity. Click on the Federal Forms activity to select it. The activity will display with a green color and contain the   edit and   delete icons. Click on the  icon to continue editing..  

Upload PDF Acroform Templates

Use the New Form Generation screen to upload the Acroform for the W-4 Acroform PDF that you downloaded and modified earlier in this tutorial. Click the  New icon to begin. Fill in the name of the template, W-4 in this case, and browse to the location of the W-4 Acroform. Click OK.

The W-4 will be listed as a PDF to be generated for this activity of the flow.   makes a copy of the uploaded Acroform template and modifies it with available selections of appropriate e-form fields for each PDF Acroform field. The modified PDF Acroform (Mapper) will be re-generated every time because the e-form fields may have changed.

Map the E-Form Fields to the Acroform Fields

Download the Mapper by clicking on the  icon. The downloaded mapper is a modified template so it will have the same name as the template that you uploaded.

Open the mapper with an external PDF viewer/editor, such as Adobe Reader (version 11 or higher) or Mac Preview.  Here is an example of the downloaded mapper for the W-4 PDF. Notice the Acroform fields are re-written with editable combo box controls. The combo boxes are pre-populated with the names of relevant e-form fields from the  flow for the purposes of field mapping.

Click on the arrow in the combo boxes to display the e-form fields. Select the appropriate e-form field from the selections provided. The image shows the Acroform field for the Last Name on the W-4 form being mapped to the LastName [form > LastName] [id:_Dpf0vUf3EeK8Grq3Nz0xDg] selection in the list: .

We will not map all the fields on the Acroform PDF for this tutorial. Minimally, selections should be made for these fields in the W-4 mapper. If you have been naming the controls as suggested in this tutorial, control names should be the same as the Live Form Control Name column shown in the table.

Your First name and Middle Initial

Upload the Completed Mappings

Save the completed mapping PDF and upload them to  by clicking on the  Upload Mapping icon on the Activity Form Generation Upload Mapping screen.

 will process the mappings and post a status that can be viewed by clicking on the  [Details] button. Any errors encountered will be listed here. We will not see the  icon until the entire Acroform has been mapped. The Form Generation Mapping Status will reflect those Acroform fields that have not been mapped.

Click the Finish button, then click the Flow View button on the flow designer tool bar.

Add the Form Viewer Control

Highlight the Confirmation form by clicking on it. Click on the  icon to edit the form. Drag and drop one Form Viewer control from the flow palette to the form. Change the label of the Form Viewer control to Review PDF Forms. Change the label color and any other style changes you want to make on the Style tab in the Properties pane. See Style Properties for more information.  

Click on the Form Viewer control to select it. Select the W-4 form from the Form dropdown on the properties pane. Click Finish to return to the Flow View in the Flow editor. Click Finish again to save your changes. 

Assign a thumbnail to the Employee On Boarding Flow 

On the Flows Home page, click the  icon to assign a thumbnail to your Employee On Boarding flow that will display on the iPad and Iphone. You can upload your own icon or select one that  provides. Refer to this documentation for the details.

Create a Space to Test the Employee On Boarding Flow

There are several ways to test the Employee On Boarding Flow.  spaces can be a valuable tool for testing mobile forms on the iPhone and iPad. Refer to this  documentation for more information about Spaces. Follow the steps below to quickly create a space to test the Employee On Boarding Flow:  

1. Log in as the designer. Click on Spaces.
2. Click  to create a new space, type a Space ID and Space Name, and then click Create.
3. Since we set the state of the Employee On Boarding flow to Production in a previous step, it will automatically be included, along with the Task List as a menu item in the newly created space.
4. To access your space from a mobile device, in this case, the iPad, click the icon on the Space Home Page.

      5. Live Forms displays your space's URL — this is the link you distribute to those who you want to view your space. Remember, this flow is designed to only be accessible to users who are logged into the tenant.

      6. Your space will look similar to the image below, when accessed from the iPad.

Test the Employee On Boarding Flow

1. Open a browser window on the iPad.  Enter the URL for your server i.e. http://<SERVERNAME>:<PORT>/frevvo/web/login
2. Logon to your tenant as Tom on the iPad.
   1. Paste the share URL for the space into the browser on the iPad
