Forms are used to manipulate data. They display a single record at a time.
Forms are based on an object and have two modes:
- View Mode - Fields are read only.
- Edit Mode - Fields are editable. Edit mode allows you to create a new record or edit an existing record.
When you create or edit a form you will be able to see all the fields that have been added to the object. You can choose which fields you need to add to the form. This means different forms based on the same object can show different information. If you need a piece of information that is not already present, you will be able to add a new field to the form and to the object.
Fields come in different types to help you record your data easily and accurately. For example, a numeric field will not accept a text input.
