Fields are configured within each section to appear on the relevant screen on mForms mobile app. These could be questions where responses are required or can be just a label.
The fields are added to the section. If there is more than one section, select the section and apply the filter first, before adding any fields.

Type
There are several types that an input field can be defined.

Number of columns to use for this field.
The number of columns for the whole form is 12 maximum, but will reduce to 8, 4 or 2 for smaller screened devices and the screen orientation chosen.
Rows
Number of rows for this field. This will only work for desktop forms and not for the mobile app.
Append
This allows you to append a field on the generated page, so that it appears on the same line as the previous field. This is feature only applies to Coins ERP+ as in Coins ERP+ the whole audit is presented on a single page; this allows you to make best use of the space.
Position
Position of the field label.
Default - the label is on the left side of the screen.
None - hides the label for the field.
Side - the label is indented from the default position.
Top - the label is above the field.
For desktop forms, Top and Side label position will not dynamically render the section element items therefore should only be used for mobile app forms when capturing or analysing input.

Rows
The number of rows that the label takes up in Coins ERP+.
Field ID
The field ID identifies the field for cross-form reporting and in calculations. If you are using section elements the field ID set on the field is masked with the field ID set on the element, and underscores will be replaced with the characters from the element. You can enter checklists with combo, integer or radioset fields.
Field ID can also be used for document designer on the output form.
Checklist
A checklist to associate with the element. This can be the code for a checklist or, when using section elements, if you wish to have different checklists, enter {n} in the field checklist, and a comma separated list of checklists on the elements. {1} will be replaced with the first entry from the list, {2} the second entry, etcetera.

If this field is set it indicates that this field is no longer in use.
If this field has existing answers against it; it will not be possible to delete it. It can be marked as Retired instead.
