Subform
Sub form : You can link another form (child form) into the parent Form. When adding a Field of the type 'Sub form', the fields from the child form are shown to the end-user, but not copied into the Field list of the parent Form. So when the child Form is changed, this is reflected immediately in the Parent Form.
When entering a Sub form, a label is requested, but not shown to the end-user.
Simply select the Form from the selection box at the end of the page:
To link the subform, these options are available: - Fixed Subform : select a form from the list - Dynamic subform : select the form based on a relative input from any source: Options: Person Field: Any information from the Requestor or the Requested For can be selected. These fields are defined under Admin > Adapters > Person Data.
Form Field: The drop down list shows all questions. By selecting a question, all fields of the parameter become available. The selected column will be used as default answer of the current question.
Main/Sub Form Field: When Subforms are used in a form, use this option to select it, and see the Fields belonging to it. This can be used both when defining the main form, as well as the sub form.
Base Form Field : When a form is used in a process, you might want to use a field from the form that was used to start the process. This is where you can select those fields.
Process Instance Variable: when a form is used in a process, you have access to the Variables that are defined in that process. Select the process and the variables are presented for selection.
Repeatable section index : when using repeated sections, you might want to know the sequence number of that section. use this option to implement it in your form (for example to show the number of entries).
Once a sub-form has been added to a form, the sub-form can be accessed via the "View form" button.
