Edit Text View
An edit text view supports editing form values on a screen. This can be for new entry as well as editing existing values defined by the module.
General Information
ℹ️ An edit text view is defined with a percent (%) and the characters ET, followed by the view number. For example:
%ET1. This is generally used on a form in order to allow a user to enter or edit a text value.
