Creating a form design in Designer

Before you start this module, ensure that you completed the tasks in Creating a LiveCycle application in Workbench.

In this module, you will create a form for applicants to use to start the approval process for a preliminary loan. You will create the form using Designer.

This module provides the minimal steps for creating a form design for use with a LiveCycle application. To fully understand the aspects involved in creating a proper form design, see the Creating a purchase order form tutorial.

To learn how to create a form design for automating a business process, complete these tasks in the following order:

Create a form design using Designer. (See Creating a new form design.)
Modify the form design you created. (See Modifying a form design.)
Test the form design and save it. (See Testing the form design.)

If you are already familiar with the process of creating a form design, you can import the form design to your LiveCycle application instead of creating it. (See Adding a prebuilt form design to a LiveCycle application.)
