Select Prepopulation Data

The content of existing custom forms associated with a person will not change when an Administrator changes Ad Hoc mappings on the form in System Administration. See the Custom Forms article for additional information.

When setting up a Custom Form, form administrators have the option of mapping Ad hoc fields to editable fields in the form. These mapped fields populate based on the person's data to which the form is attached.

Forms may include multiple fields mapped to the same Ad hoc field, such as reporting a list of team members or behavior events. When the form is created in System Administration, Sequence values are selected for fields in a list. The user creating the form then indicates the order that records should populate in the form. This process is best illustrated with an example.

Military Connection Example

An example form includes a list of a person's team members. When mapping Ad hoc fields to the form, the form administrator aligned guardianMilConnections.guardianFirstName and guardianMilConnections.guardianLastName to two fields in a list, with Sequences of 1 and 2. When a user selects the form to add to a person, the first step is to select which records populate in these fields and in what order. Select records from the dropdown list and reorder them as desired by clicking and dragging records.

Click the Create Form button after all selections have been made. In the form, selected records display in the indicated order.

Complete Form

A warning icon displays in the upper right corner when there are any errors, such as missing required fields or overfilled fields. Click this button to navigate through the errors on the form. An unlocked icondisplays when there are no errors and the form is unlocked. A locked icondisplays when there are no errors and the form is locked.

A draft of the form can be saved with rule errors. However, a draft of the document will not save when there are overfilled fields.

Enter and/or select data in the form as needed. Click Save & Stay to save progress and continue working on the form or Save to save progress and navigate to the list screen. Or, click Cancel.

Print

When text entered in a multiline text field on a custom form goes beyond the capacity of space on the page, the overflow text displays on subsequent pages when the form is printed. The text on one page ends with the word Continued and a Letter-Number combination in parenthesis which indicates where the text is continued on another page. See the Custom Forms article for additional information concerning the overflow functionality.

For example, a text field ends with "Continued A1," the text is continued on an overflow page labeled Appendix A1 (see image 8 below). The ellipsis (...) under the Appendix label indicates the text is continued from a previous page.

Example image of how overflow text prints on subsequent pages Overflow Print Example

The maximum capacity for each overflow text field is 1 MB, with a maximum of 4 MB per form.

Overflow Setup

When creating the form in Adobe, the multiline option must be selected under Text Field Properties. The Overflow checkbox must also be marked in System Administration. See the Custom Forms documentation to learn about Custom Form setup.

Print Draft Custom Forms

A Draft watermark displays when printing Custom Forms in a draft status.

Lock/Unlock

The Lock and Unlock button does not display for Custom Forms that are eSignature Requests. See the Review Participants section for additional information.

Users can click the Lockor Unlock button to change the lock status of the document. A locked document indicates no additional changes can be made. Before locking or unlocking, a validation message displays, alerting the user to the logic associated with locking a form.

Certain Custom Forms display on Campus Parent and/or Campus Student Portal once the form is locked. Three conditions must happen in order for a Custom Form to display on the portal:

Step	Image Click to Enlarge
1. Mark the Display Custom Form on Portal option on the Custom Forms Upload step.	Display Custom Form on Portal Options
2. Mark the Portal Preference for the module the form is in at System Administration > Portal > Preferences > Display Options on the Documents section. Portal preferences are set by school. See the Portal Preferences Display Options documentation for additional information.	Display Options for Custom Modules
3. Attach the Custom Form to a student and lock the document (either on the Forms tool or the Documents tool).	Lock a Custom Form

When a form is locked and published, the status of the form on the Forms list screen displays as Locked & Published. Hover over the locked icon within the form to view a message that the form is locked and published.

The ability to lock a document is given when the user has Write rights to the Forms tool. The ability to unlock a document requires RWAD rights to Student Information > General > Forms > Module > Unlock AND Write rights to the Forms tool (Student Information > General > Forms). See the Forms Tool Rights documentation for additional information.

Optional Start Date and Time

A Start Date and Time can be set for Forms that are sent to the Campus Parent and/or Campus Student in the future. So when the above conditions have been met concerning the Portal setup, the Form is Locked, and a Start Date and Time is set, the Form publishes to the Portal as of the Start Date and Time.

Review Participants

Forms supports emancipated student functionality. Emancipated students receive a form via the Parent Portal when it is marked to be sent to the Parent Portal. See the Emancipated Students documentation for information on setting up emancipated students.

The Review Participants button displays after an initial save. When finished entering data into the form, click the Review Participants button to verify to whom the form is being sent and send eSignature request(s). The Form Detail also allows the user to select when the Form is sent and when the form becomes read-only on the Portal.

Custom Form eSignatures

When the Request Parent/Guardian and/or Student Signature option is selected on the Custom Forms Setup tool, this form is sent to parent/guardian(s) and/or the student for an electronic signature (eSignature). Note certain forms allow the parent/guardian and/or the student to enter data.

Note: eSignature Custom Forms do not sync to the state for State Edition users. Custom Forms with eSignatures ONLY display on the Forms tool and are not available on the Documents tool.

In order for an eSignature Request/Fillable form to be sent to the Campus Parent or Campus Student Portal, the following conditions must be met:

Step	Image Click to enlarge
1. Mark the Display Custom Form on Portal AND the Request eSignature options on the Custom Forms Upload step.	Display Custom Form on Portal Options
2. Mark the Portal Preference for the Module the form is in at System Administration > Portal > Preferences > Display Options on the Documents section. Portal preferences are set by school.

The Parent/Guardian must have a valid Portal account in order to receive eSignature forms. The order of the Parent/Guardian(s) names is determined first by the Emergency Priority on the Relationships tool. When no Emergency Priority is entered, the names display in alphabetical order.	Relationship Checkboxes for eSignature

Request eSignature(s) Process

Enter data into the form.
Click Review Participants.
Optional: Select a Start Date and Time when the form is available on the Portal, after eSignatures have been requested.
Optional: Select an End Date when the form becomes read-only on the Portal.
