Populate the Display for Information Only Field in a Form

Populate the Display for Information Only Field in a Form

When using the Form Builder in the UtiliSync Admin app, once you have added a field to a form, you can customize the settings for that field in the panel on the right side of the screen. In this article, you will learn how to populate the Display for Information Only field. 

Instructions

1. The Display for Information Only option allows you to add data to your form that cannot be changed by the users filling out the forms. You can put long statements such as disclaimers or specific instructions in Text Info fields, they are never editable by the users. (See article linked below.)
2. For shorter data such as Project Name, Address, Permit Number, Inspector Name, etc. it is a good idea to prepopulate Singleline Text fields with Default settings (see article linked below) then mark them Display for Information Only.
3. Open the Settings Panel for a Singleline Text field, there is a dropdown for the option to Display for Information Only. The default setting is False. Selecting True will format this field to be informational only.

1. Each of the other settings available will be explained in a separate article. 
2. Remember to click on the blue Update Item button when you have finished customizing the settings.

Success! You can now set a Singleline Text or Paragraph field to Display for Information Only.
