The following types of data-entry fields exist in Forms:
- Text/Numeric: Enter the specified text or numeric value.
- Drop-down list: Select a value from the drop-down list.
The values available in the drop-down list are configured by the user. The values shown in the drop-list can be limited by a selection elsewhere in the Form.
In the examples below, the "Country" list is seen unfiltered on the left. On the right, the same list is filtered by the "Language" field-- so only those countries in which English is spoken are shown.
- Text Area/Annotation: The text area and annotation fields have a scroll bar to enable you to view all of the characters in the fields. You can cut and paste characters into a text area/annotation field. You can enter a maximum of 2,000 characters in annotation field.
- Date Box: Enter a date into the field or select a date from the date popup.
- Indicator: Select an Indicator from a drop-down list.
- For User Category field: Click on the field. The User pop up dialog appears. Then type a search string in the Search field, select the applicable matching result, and click OK.
