Create a repeating section

A repeating section is deployed to Oracle InForm as an Add Entry itemset. Add Entry itemsets include the items in the section, and the ability for the Oracle InForm user to add items to the section from within Oracle InForm.

  1. At the bottom of the Project Explorer, click the Visit Schedule (Visit Schedule icon.) button.
  2. Expand the visit with the form you want to add the section to, right-click the form, and select New Section.
  3. Enter a title, RefName, and description, and click OK.

    Tip:

    We recommend adding the sections in the order you want them to appear on the form. However, if you need to reorder the sections, see Reorder the sections on a form.
  4. Make sure the Design tab is selected.
  5. In the upper-right above the grid, select the Repeating checkbox.

    Tip:

    To ensure that data is captured and maintained properly, do not change this setting after you have deployed your study. Instead, deactivate this study object and create a new object with the updated setting.
  6. Next, create items in the section.
