Form Design

Creating custom forms is crucial in supporting daily tasks, assessments, and record-keeping necessary for Food Safety. You can utilize the Draft Mode feature to test newly designed forms before publishing them.

You will need the following tools to create your custom Forms:

Question
Collapsible Panel
Section Header
Conditional Section
Instruction Text

Answer types that need extra setup

Some answer types open extra configuration when you choose them. If this step is skipped, the question looks complete but the form will fail to save later with a "please check your questions" error.

Bluetooth Temperature Readings — select the food item or category being tested.
Temperature Profile — select the food item.
Link to a Completed Form — select the category of form to link to.
Selected Resource — select the resource type, then the specific document from the resource picker.

Before you save: things to check if you get an error

If a form won't save, check these:

Question text — the question's name. Leaving it blank will block saving.
Form Category — must be selected.
Form Name — must be entered.
At group level, a Form Type needs to be selected when creating a brand new custom form. Open Form Settings, find Form Type, and select one from the list.
