Adding Tables into Forms

Forms in apps provide "Table" function to add rows as needed while entering data.

Tables are useful to manage multiple data entries in one record.
For example, in an Order Management app, you can enter different product names and the numbers of orders for each customer, by just adding rows as required.

How to Add Tables into Forms

To create a table, choose a table from field list and place it, and then add fields you want to include one at a time using drag and drop operation.

You can also specify a table name and the field codes to a table.
In this section, a table name and the field codes are configured in step 5 through 8 after placing fields, although you can configure them before or during placing fields.

1. Open the app settings page.

Notes on When Setting Conditions Based on Values in a Table

When you set conditions based on values in a table, please note the following:

• When setting conditions for filtering records to be displayed in the record list
  The filtered results include records where the value of the field in a row of the table meets the condition.
• When setting the conditions for sending notifications from the app
  
  • Per Record Notifications
    The notification is sent when a field value in any of the rows meets the condition. However, a notification is not sent if the set condition was met by a value in a field in another row.
    
  • Reminder
    A reminder is sent every time the value of a field in a row of the table meets the condition.
    
  • When setting conditions for record permissions
    The permission is applied to the record when the value of a field in a row of the table meets the condition.
