How to find UI Macros and UI pages used in particular form(like any Change,Incident,Approval forms..)

[Nithin12]

Hi Community,

I have a query, I need to find the ui macros and ui pages used on a particular form.

For example if we want to find the business rules on particular table we use configure option and we get related BR's.

In same is there any   way to get ui macros , ui pages used on particular form.

If we dont have a way to find then can we use developer tools(Inspect on browser) to find the ui macros or pages ? If yes please guide me how to find that.

Any related links also will help me.

Hi Nithin,

Mostly forms use UI macro as formatter to display some content. you can check this by configuring form layout and check if any formatter present or not.

I would begin by looking at Configure> Form Layout. UI macros or pages (less used) that are placed directly on the form are going to appear as formatters.

Formatters

You can also look at the reference field dictionary entries. Any reference fields that include a dictionary attribute ref_decorations are also employing a UI macro. This is represented as the icon next to the reference field (e.g. incidents by same caller.)
