New Button (Recruit)

Note The New Button option is only supported for Recruit forms and cannot be used for HCM forms.

The New Button option adds a custom button to the currently selected page. Buttons can perform additional actions such as skipping an irrelevant section.

By default, each form page already has navigation buttons (Previous, Next, Save, and Submit). These are displayed at both the bottom and top of pages within multi-page forms. Navigation buttons are not displayed in the visual editor. Navigation buttons can be toggled on and off for a page using the Navigation checkbox in advanced editing mode.

The New Button element has the following fields.

Field Description
Name The name of the button element, shown in the form structure panel.
Prompt The text that appears on the button.
Action

As well as the standard navigation options, custom button actions are:

  • Goto: navigates the user to a specific page in the form.

  • Complete: submits the form. If a "Completed" message exists for the form, the user is forwarded to the message. You can forward to another page on form completion by specifying a Target Page for the Complete button.

  • Print: opens a print view of the page in your browser.
Target Page

For the Goto action, this is the page that the button will take you to. For Complete action, the button forwards the user to the specified page after submitting the form.

Enter the ID of the destination page.
Tip A tooltip for the button that appears on mouse hover.
ID A unique ID for the button element.
Disabled When checked, the button appears on the page, but is disabled.
Conditions The conditions that must be met for the button to be displayed.
Image URL External URL of an image to use as the button background. By default, the button resizes to match the dimensions of the image. If you specify a button image, the Prompt text is not displayed on the button.
Confirm message (not used) Text to display in a confirmation dialog. Not used.
