Edit User Field Information
To edit the form user fields on the RIB CX Mobile App go to the Form tab of a document.
In this example we will create a Defect form.
1. Click on Modules tab.
2. Select Defects Module.
3. Select Defects Document type.
4. Click on the Create New Document button on the bottom right.
5. New Defect is created.
6. Select the form tab.
Here you will be able to see all the user fields you have access to.
- User fields with selectable options (such as select, radio, tick boxes, cascading) will display the options you can select from. (eg Location).
- User fields that are text fields will allow you to click in the text area to add your comments. (eg Further Notes).
Using the Toggle Feature
When creating and modifying forms on the mobile app, RIB CX allows users to 'toggle' each user field to save the details entered and auto populate future documents of the same type with this user field input.Â
For example when on site raising Defects, you may find that the Location, Room, etc., may be the same for a number of documents being raised consecutively. In this instance, you may choose to turn the toggle on so that the detail input in the field will be repeated for the next.Â
The toggle feature can be used on all user field types, including text fields to store and repeat the input information.
Having the toggle feature on when creating a new form will not restrict the user field detail from being overwritten, and the toggle is able to be easily switched on or off at any time.Â
