Data Table

Learn about form data tables.

Data tables automatically capture data from the Forms for reporting and other purposes. By default, a new Form definition does not have the data table configured, as indicated by the “Has Data Table” column in the Form definitions table.  

 

Select the Form Definition, then select the "Actions > Data Table" menu item.  

 

Enter the Target Table name in the provided input box and click the "Add" button.

 

The data table is created with an alert notification. The column lists all the Form fields in alphabetical order.   

 

The Form Definitions page confirms the association of the data table, as shown in the image below.  

 

Use the Search feature to locate a Form field by name. 

 

Use the “Update” button to update the data table when Form fields are added or removed in the Form Definition. Note: The “Update” feature ensures that Form changes are always in sync with the data table by removing unnecessary columns. 

 

When the Form is submitted at runtime, the Data Table is populated with values from the Form fields. To manage the Data Tables for all Forms, navigate to the Create > Data Table page. The “# of Records” column shows the total number of records. 

 

Select the data table to view the contents from this page, as shown in the images below.

 

Select the record to view additional details.

 

Note:

When Forms have subforms, the data table should also be created for them at design time. When the form design is modified, the data table schema is automatically updated to match the revised form.

There are no provisions for importing Excel data into a data table within the application. We understand that this compromises data integrity.
