  1. Allow URL parameters in DocuWare Forms

    Since each field in a DocuWare Form has an ID it would be very handy to be able to pass data to that field via a URL parameter.

    If I had a field on a form with the ID of "Location" I'd like to be able to call that form with a specific location value. The form would then load with that field already prefilled with that value. Something like this:
    https://mytenant.docuware.cloud/form/formpage?Location=USA

  2. Group elements in DocuWare Forms and an "add button" to dynamically "create" fields

    Imagine that Im a technician and require spare parts to fix something... I would need a document with some certain information which would repeat n number of times, i.e. Part Number, Description, Qty... there won't be a fixed number of fields that i have to fill each time I need spare parts.

    The group elements function would allow to wrap PartNumber, Description and Qty to be treated as one, so with the Add button you could add another group of those fields as on requirements

  3. Form filling checks and crosses

    When mapping fields to a merge doc, can we have the option to have ticks, or checks as well as the existing "X" ?

    The reason is that when using a Checkbox field in form design, and then mapping that to a merge form the data changes from a "tick" for yes on the web form, to an "X" which can be interpreted as a "No" on the merge form.

  4. Create forms with a organization template

    like a fusion into "form of fusion" with "traditional forms". For example, I upload the PDF template file and add items on this template to capture information. In this way, the user of a web client looks at a friendly interface.

  5. Merge and Web Form

    We have several forms where part of the data gets merged onto a filled out form that we give to the client, and the rest of the information is lost. I've worked around this by creating a basic word document to hold on to the excess information that is only used internally, however it would be nice if it was possible to use the merge form for the information you want on to a specific document, AND the web form layout that captures ALL the data.

  6. Date/time for forms

    It would be nice to have a Date/Time form ability instead of simply just Date. This would work great for forms used for meeting scheduling

  7. Add a "Clear Form" option / button

    With the newly added auto populating of selective select list fields. The potential for an error that can not be remedied is evident. If an auto populated field is read only for example, even if you change the initially selected field via X and new drop down selection, it does not correct the other fields.

  8. Allow DocuWare Forms to be submitted to a Document Tray

    Currently, DocuWare Forms do not inherit File Cabinet field masks such as a Social Security Number regex validation. If a DocuWare Form could be submitted to a Document Tray instead of a File Cabinet, then I could use the store dialog to enforce the input and finish up the form. There's plenty of other reasons as well.

  9. Web Forms: Auto number to increase when the form is submitted, not opened

    The auto number used in a web form increases every time the form is opened, not submitted. I was expecting to be increased every time the form gets submitted, as we use the auto number to identify the form.

  11. allow a merge form to be created based on content of a form

    I have several merge forms that may or may not be needed depending on the content of a form. For example I have 2 consent forms that are identical the only difference is the county. I would like to use 1 form and then have a checkbox for the county and it use the data from that checkbox to determine which merge form to complete.

  13. Highlight mandatory fields in forms

    Is it possible to have something more visual for mandatory form fields, that draws a users' attention to complete a specific required field, as currently the submit button remains greyed out and you have to hover to find the names of the field that need to be completed.

    For example a red outline (as shown in the attachment, an example from Office 365 Forms), it will be easier for users to complete mandatory fields, by visually drawing their attention to it.

  15. Option to set Merge Form Field behaviour as Single Line Text or Multi Lines Text

    As default Merge Form Field displays text as Single Line Text and often text from a web form disappears if it's too long. They only way the text breaks lines is if it's linked to a Multi Lines Text Field from a web form.
    Now with Fill Areas if I want to overlay text from a Keyword type index in workflow to a fill area that wasn't linked to Multi Lines Field it behaves as Single Line Text.
    Could you give us an option to choose Fill Area behaviour (as a Single Line Text or Multi Lines Text), please?

  16. Prefill form field with another form field

    Some forms capture the same data over and over again, we need to be able to prefill a form field with one that was captured earlier.

  17. Require entries in table field on forms

    I would like the ability to require at least one row be completed in a table field on the form.
    I would also like the ability to require certain columns in the table field to be required for each row of the table.

  18. Time picker

    A basic option that is missing on the web forms designer is a time picker. The date one works great...now if we just had a time option that pulled up a clock on the mobile device or browser to easily and consistently set the time that would be great.

  19. ability to create forms with pre-filled non-system fields

    in a Workflow sometimes it is necessary to create pre-filled forms according to the Workflow data. Example create a payment request form according to the validated invoice with the possibility of automatically retrieving invoice data.

  20. Multi Column Select Lists - Define which column is the stored value

    In a multi-column select list, these are used as "Helpers" for the user to select a value from an SQL DB. If the user types the name from the first column, we want to provide five other columns to help them identify which one they want, things like address, active/inactive etc. I want to be able to allow them to select the one they want BUT only return or store when indexing the value in the 4th column, for Vendor ID and not the name they searched by in column 1.
    In short - Would like to have definable columns…
