<Module> → Custom Forms

Custom forms are a means to collect specific information about your users.

For example:

Date of Birth
Gender
Ethnicity
Marital Status

Primary Physician
Vehicle License Plate No
Allergies
SAT Score

The campusSIS system has very few data points that we collect as part of our system build - allowing for each school to create its own unique data set.

The system allows your institution to create an unlimited number of form elements, what we call form fields, and these are all found (created, edited and deleted) in your Custom Fields Index / Directory.

You can build your unique forms easily by adding the various form fields to your form.

This system allows you to completely customize your work environment in a way that is meaningful and useful to you.

Forms can also be shared with other team members and departments.

Each form element (form field) is given a unique TAG name.

MERGE FIELDS
This tag name can be used as a merge field in any of your custom letters.

CUSTOM REPORTS
This tag name can be used as search criteria or report results in any of your custom forms.

If you would like to have additional training on the creation and use of custom fields and custom forms please reach out to our HELP DESK.
