Identify Forms and questions

The IDs of Forms and questions are included in the metadata XML. The KCM Repository Form Editor enables you to change both Form and question IDs. It is also possible to define Form and Question IDs in the FORM statement of the Template scripting language. For more information, see the Kofax Communications Manager Template Scripting Language Developer's Guide.

A business application that integrates KCM can identify Forms and questions that have been filled with answers during a template run in the metadata XML by their IDs. The Form Editor generates unique random IDs initially when saving a new Form. It also does this when saving existing Forms that have no IDs yet. Manually entered IDs are easier to locate in the metadata XML and allow for easier integration. For more information, see the next section.
