With this setting you can define a specific order for the tasks. The sequence defines the tab order, used e.g. to navigate from one form field to the next just with keyboard navigation.
Typical scenario for defining such task sequences are:
- Documents having a multi-column layout, where the signer usually first fills form elements in the left column and then proceeds with a column on the right.
- Documents with many form fields, where the form field alignment is not exact in pixels. A field on the right which is just one pixel above should not be filled before the other field on the left which is just one pixel below.
In addition to order the tasks by drag and drop it is also possible to define a sequence mode:
- No sequence enforced
- allow form filling in any order independent if they the tasks are required or optional.
- The signer can at any time switch between the different form fields and signature fields on the page, until he finishes the activity.
- Sequence required tasks
- optional tasks - allow form filling in any order for
- required tasks - form filling must be in the given orderorder
- The signer must follow the defined sequence for the form elements marked as "required".
- The signer can at any time decisde to insert any value in an optional form field, until he finishes the activity.
- Sequence enforced - enforce sequence for all tasks
- optional and required tasks must be filled in in the configured order
- The signer must follow the defined sequence for all form elements.
- Optional fields get enabled according to the sequence, once their predecessing required field was completed.
- In between optional fields, until the next "required" field was filled, the signer can freely choose the sequence.
- The signer can of course skip optional fields, but if he proceeds with the next required field the former optional fields cannot be changed any more.
