How to create a new form

Adding Fields to a Form
Each Form is made up of a series of questions, known as Fields. Fields represent simple types of data, such as text, dates and numbers, but can also provide a pick-list of values to select from, such as True or False answers.
To add field to a Form, tap or press the Fields tab on the Form Details page. Enter a short name for the field that will appear as a label on the form and a longer description that will appear as help text. Select the data type, such as Text and provide the numeric order of the Field within the Form.
Field Types
Text: accepts alphanumeric input and is perfect for storing short answers and comments.
Number: accepts only numbers
Date: displays the date-picker for the user to select a valid date
Image: enables the user to upload an image file
Signature: provides a box in which a signature can be drawn
True/False: allows the user to choose either true or false
List of Values: displays a drop-down list of values from which to choose
Using List of Values
When selecting the “List of Values” data type you are able to provide the users with a pre-defined set of values to choose from when answering a question. To add value to a ‘List of Values’ field, tap or press the highlighted Name of the field. Enter the Field Values to display in the list.
Using Forms
After creating a Form, it can be manually added to any Job by clicking New on the Forms tab. Alternatively, Forms can be linked to a Job Type so that they are automatically added to any new Jobs.
