The option to Add a New Action allows you to select from a list of commonly used pre-defined actions. This list includes the option to create your own Custom Action (figure 13), which will open the R:Editor (figure 14) for you to make your command file.

After you have created and saved your Custom Action, you will be back at the main property dialog, where you can now arrange the actions in the List of Actions area using the up and down arrows to achieve the order that you want (figure 15).

When using predefined options, if you choose an option that requires a choice of forms, reports, etc., a dialog will prompt you to make a selection from the available items (figure 16). In this same dialog box, you can also create a custom WHERE clause using the WHERE Builder (figure 17).

After selecting a form and building your WHERE clause and/or ORDER BY clause, you will return to the previous screen where you can add additional R:BASE actions. (figure 15).
As you can see, the method for creating actions is very simple and efficient. All the flexibility from the Legacy Application Express Designer has been maintained in this area.
Once you have added all of your actions, click the Next button (figure 18).
