Design Dialog Questions

Each dialog map is associated with its own dialog and must be designed to reflect the function of the associated dialog. The application specifications developed during the initial design stages can be used to answer design questions such as the following:

• How many of the dialogs specified for this application will require maps?
• What premap and response processes are required for each map?
• What job is performed by each process?
• Will the map be used to pass data between processes and/or between dialogs? What data will be passed?
• What database and mapping work records are associated with the map?
• What editing criteria should apply to the map fields?
