form builder data input types

The Select element is used in conjunction with an Option List.  It allows a user to select only one of the options in the list. Use this element when you have small lists and short options to work with.

To add a Select element to your form, follow the instructions below.

STEP 1. From inside the form builder, click the Select button from the left-hand menu. You'll see it populate the device view.

STEP 2. On the right-hand side, you'll see the element properties.  Enter the name of your element (A), and if you like, a description of what information should be entered in the element when collecting (B).  

PLEASE NOTE: If you check the Based on Label option, it will create a data column based on the Label on the element.

STEP 3. Scroll down the right-hand menu to the Option List section and click Option Lists.

STEP 4. From the Inline Option List Manager screen, you have the choice to either create a new Option List (A) or choose an existing Option List (B).  In this example, we'll be assigning an existing Option List.

STEP 5. Select the Option List you wish to attach (A) and click Assign Selected (B).

STEP 6. Click the Save icon.
