Inside every Beas form there is one or more data windows.

A data window present all components in a Beas form.

Name is dw_1 for first data window, dw_2 for second and so on

 

A data window has thefollowing components:

- The Datastore which administrates the data information (retrieve, update, add)

- The Report, the visible view with all Text- and Column fields

- The expression engine. Beas uses this for formulas in the Configurator or BeasScript for variables declared with instance and local.
  It is possible to insert additional logic in every text- and column with expression (example: color related to the value)
