Parameters

These parameters control how the Customer Portal custom field will behave.

Parameter

Description

Checklist Field

Select the Checklist custom field that you want shown on your customer portal.

Choose a Checklist custom field that is applicable to the same context (projects and issue types) as the Customer Portal custom field.

Show on Create screen

When enabled, the checklist will be visible when users create requests on the customer portal.

You can disable this feature to hide the checklist on the Create screen. This is useful if your goal is to show checklist progress only on the View screen.

Show on View screen

When enabled, the checklist will be visible when users view requests on the customer portal.

You can disable this feature to hide the checklist on the View screen. This is useful if your goal is to show checklist progress only during creation.

Summaries' Source

Choose how the proxy’s banner and progress bar should calculate progression:

  • All items: The summaries will show progress of all the checklist’s items, no matter if the items are optional or mandatory.

  • Mandatory items: The summaries will show progress of only the checklist’s mandatory items.

Changing this parameter changes how the checklist progression is calculated. It also changes how the checklist determines what Custom Banner Labels to display.

Proxy Type

Choose the look and feel of the proxy on the Customer Portal:

  • Checklist: Displays the entire checklist in read-only mode.

  • Banner: Displays a banner that contains a label that indicates the status of the checklist.

  • Progress bar: Displays a progress bar that shows the status of the checklist.

When creating requests, the proxy is always displayed as an editable checklist (but a permission scheme may prevent editing).

Once the request is created, the proxy appears on the Customer Portal, where it is read only and its look and feel is controlled by this parameter.
