Combining FormsCentral web forms

If I have two web forms that I want to merge into one, is there any automated capability to do that, or do I really have to manually re-create the same fields and properties from Form 2 onto Form 1?

Hi Lucia,
thank you for your quick help.
My first question didn't really get to the point:
Our customers can fill out the web form without having an Adobe FormsCentral account, ok.
But if the customer wants to have a copy of the form she/he filled out, then I have to download the answer data in FormsCentral as PDF, and then forward this PDF with the data to the customer, or make it visible to her/him in some way.
Is it possible to send the filled out web form to our customers without doing anything manually ? We want to automate this, and thats the reason why I asked question 2 with the programming interface or SDK.
Many thanks,
Thomas

How to setup a purchase discount on my web form?

How to setup a purchase discount on my web form? I use adobe form central and my wix web page only allow me to insert ready host form URL.

Hi,
I believe you want to embed a form on your web page. Please take a look at this link, http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-1991 and see if it works with your web page. I am not familiar with wix websites tools, but if after trying it out with the instructions on how to embed the form, and does not work, maybe you can provide the FormsCentral web form URL on your web page. Your end users visit your web page, click on the web form URL link and the form will open in a new browser.
To get the FormsCentral web form URL, open the form, go to Distribute Tab / Web Form sub-tab and select "Copy Link", then paste the link on your web html page.
If you want to set up your form to work with PayPal for payment transaction, please see this link: http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-1632
Hope this helps,

I have imported a PDF form (created in adobe acrobat XI pro) into FormsCentral. I now want to convert this document into a web form so I can embed it into my website. HOW DO I DO THIS?

I took a word document I had created and added fields to it in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. I then imported the PDF in Forms Central and now I am stuck. All I am able to do with it in FormsCentral is add a submit button. It will not allow me to edit the document in FormsCentral. What I ultimately need to do is get this converted to a web form so that I can embed it into our company website. Additionally, once it's converted, I need to add an option for the user to attach their resume with the file before submitting. I have looked all over the web and I cannot find an answer as to whether or not I can convert PDFs to web forms in FormsCentral. This will ultimately determine whether or not the company decides to purchase these programs after the trial version has ended in a few days.

I tried that first, but FormsCentral does not have the capability to create tables. The form I need to create is more advanced than what FormsCentral allows. Do you know if there is a way to create or somehow import a table when creating a web based form on FormsCentral?

Is there a way to customize the web form link in Adobe FormsCentral?

The dedicated link has a quite complicated address, not easily added to brochures to hand out. Is there a way to customize the web form link in Adobe FormsCentral?

It cannot be customized. The workaround is to create your own web page and embed our form into it. That way they only see your URL.

I opened Adobe Acrobate XI Standard to create a form. I then selected From Template, which took me to Adobe FormsCentral Online. However, I think the form is an HTML web form. All I wanted was a regular PDF form that I could email my co-workers for an internal project we're colletively working on. Now I see that FormsCentral is going away and I can't get my doc to save as a PDF without an upgrade? Help

You should be able to log into the online Formscentral Acrobat XI air app and see your doc there. From there you would need to save it out as a PDF without a submit button to have it continue to work past July. If you don't see your online form(s) please let me know the adobeID you use to log into the service as well as the form name that is missing and I will look into it for you.

Is it possible to see who has saved progress on a web form, but not submitted?

We are using FormsCentral for our application process, and we are allowing applicants to save forms. Is it possible to see who has started a web form, and saved it, but hasn't submitted yet? Maybe by cc'ing the email notificiation they get to an admin?
We'd like to see who is working on the applications, and also to send them a reminder that they need to complete and submit the form by the deadline.

Hi;
No, there isn't a way for you to see anything about who has saved progress.
Thanks,
Josh

Web Forms Not working on Client Machines with Separate Win

Hi friends,
We deployed all our Forms on web and we are using Developer
Server 6.0 ,OAS 4.07, Oracle Jinitator 1.1.7.18 ,Netscape 4.7
Browser
My problem is we configured forms to open in a separate window
this is giving problems on Client Machines they are getting a
blank screen ,previously we used to open forms in the same window
(browser ) at that time we didn't get any problem.
We are using Oracle Jinitiator 1.1.7.18 & Netscape 4.7 as
browser on Client Machines.
Thanks in Advance...!

JInitiator will be downloaded only once - the first time when u connect to a web-forms application. After that - no problem. It is true that the first time it takes a little bit longer, but I think forms are working better using JInitiator. However - it is just a matter of settings how u will make your application to run. Oracle did great improvement of the speed introducing the forms servlet listener. I would expect even better performance with Forms9i. And Win2000 is not a problem, but combination between Win2000 and Pentium4 is. There is a way to avoid your (installation) problems however.

Possible to show file upload progress for web form submission?

I just made a simple form as a test. There are 3 files being submitted here via a "web form".
Files being uploaded in this case are of these sizes:
110MB
9MB
24MB
I'm testing functionality that will let a print shop's clients upload their files. For larger files they'll use FTP but this "order form" does a lot of business for them so we're trying to replicate in BC.
My problem is that I am wondering if there is a way to show the "upload progress" as a total %. Such as a visual status bar, etc.
As of now the only way it's showing is in the default browser status bar (chrome in this case):
http://cl.ly/image/1d3U0S1h2521
I read somewhere that the limit is 150MB for an upload. Wondering if that means 150MB TOTAL as in 3 files combined in my case. Or If I chose to allow 3 files to be attached would it allow for 450MB?
Also, if you do a user submitted web app instead and allow people to attach files that way, does the same file limit apply?
My second issue is that the upload speed seems to be SLOW. I know it's not my connection because on my non BC site as well as another with the same form, the files upload fairly fast. But on BC it just crawls and on a few tests I get this:
http://cl.ly/image/2T2q160M1R1n
Any help or suggestions with the file upload progress as well as file upload speed would be appreciated.
Thanks!

So if i have 3 files to be uploaded, the max allowed is 750MB correct? (just wondering if when uploading its 250mb total or per file).
Guess i'll do something fake to make it appear its working with a loading graphic or something.
My web browser (chrome in this case) shows the % uploaded. I wonder if all web browsers do the same. I havent tested yet.
If only there were a way to have javascript or something grab that same #% from the web browser itself and just format it to appear where I want on the form along with the % uploading.
Anyone know if that's possible?
Here's where Chrome for mac shows it:
http://cl.ly/image/1c3i3x25262j
If I could grab that (uploading 19%) from the browser and format it into css/html i'd be gold.
Then find if similar browsers do the same and write some js for each browser specifically to grab it.
In a perfect world at least....

Add logic to Submit button in web form

We have created a form from scratch in FormsCentral. It has a fair bit of logic associated with questions in the application form.
Some of the logic leads to the end result that an applicant should not be able to submit the form.
The issue is, that as a web form - no matter how much logic we put up front to determine whether the applicant should continue flling out the form OR whether they can or cannot submit a form - the only option to get them out of the form (apart from Warning text "you cannot complete this submission online, please contact our call centre'.. sort of thing OR hoping that they press back on their browser OR click on another page in the website) is the appearance of the action buttons BACK and SUBMIT buttons.
This results in a partially filled out response appearing in the response table and/or the email notification etc.. causing extra work for receiver - as they need to ensure teh applicant is aware that the form submission does not constitue a successful submission.
Any options for us here in FormsCentral? (can we apply logic to the Submit button to Not Submit?)
(or is it only something that can be solved through scripting logic into buttons on an Acrobat form?)
Look forward to your response.

In a web form it is not possible as you found with skip logic, and there isn't a way I can think to accomplish that.
In PDF you could edit the script on the submit button - very carefully so as not to break submit when the form has been filled out correctly, and test it well after editing. Here is some information on editing a FormsCentral PDF: http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-3661

Pdf form -- Web form?

I created a pdf fillable form using Acrobat 9 and imported it into FormsCentral. Everything works fine! Is it possible now to make the form fillable as a web form? That would be not just a homerun, but a grand slam for me!

Hi;
This isn't something you can do with FormsCentral, the imported PDF allows you to distribute a PDF with a Submit button that collects the data back in FormsCentral for analasys but does not provide a URL or web version of the form.

Filling out Web form

Good evening,
I created our first web grant form (with writable fields, and fields for attachments).
We will have this form linked to our website (right now we are testing it).
I would like to verify, when people fill the form out over longer period of time (say they might take breaks in between), do they get cut out, or not? (I clicked on our test link, left the form open, and filled out fields randomly over 4 hours period, than submitted and it did not kicked me out.) However, I am the administrator, so it might be little different for me?
My other question is, if we could avoid the following - after people click on the "submit" button on the webform, they actually could go back afterward with the "back" arrow, and might correct some information and re-submit again (which might be confusing for collectiong data). Is there a way, that we could avoid that? Could we create a message e.g."we are sorry, but you already submitted your application once"? Just wondering.
My last question is, if people need to have adobe reader to be able to fill out the web grant form?
Thanks you for your help,

Question 1: I would like to verify, when people fill the form out over longer period of time (say they might take breaks in between), do they get cut out, or not?
- No, as long as they don't close the form in their browser, they should be able to finish filling out the form and submit.
Question 2: Is there a way, that we could avoid that? Could we create a message e.g."we are sorry, but you already submitted your application once"? Just wondering.
- Sorry, FormsCentral currently don't have that functionality. You may vote on a feature request at http://forums.adobe.com/community/formscentral?view=idea or add a new idea by clicking on "Submit Feature Request" in the page http://forums.adobe.com/community/formscentral.
Question 3: if people need to have adobe reader to be able to fill out the web grant form?
- No, users don't need to have adobe reader to fill out web forms.

Title in web form

Hi
I'm trying to create a new web form for people to subscribe to a newsletter.
I just want the form fields to be name and email but I can't seem to work out how to remove the title and the first name
any ideas?

You need first and last name on web forms.
You can combine them into FullName - http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-2363
Just delete the title html from the form.

Opening web form in SmartView 11.1.2.103 - display name and alias

Hi,
Through some useful forum here, I have upgraded our SmartView, APS and Essbase to version 11.1.2.103 in order to display name and alias in SmartView. However, since I am very new to Hyperion overall, I am still exploring whether it is my limited knowledge with the product or if it's limitation of the product. My client wants to open up an existing web form in SmartView and shoe name and alias in separate columns. Is this possible? I have tried many combinations but I was only able to open up the form in SmartView having name and alias in single column. Any tips and tricks to achieve what I want will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Kelly

This is by design. There was strong customer feedback asking for the ability to show the POV in the first row and not have the POV toolbar on. This feedback came from longtime Essbase customers and partners. If you click the POV button this row gets hidden and you can use the toolbar just like you did in the past in Smart View (no loss of functionality). For Essbase the default is to show the POV on the sheet.
We have continued improvements planned but here are some of the key point that drove this change:
1 - Printing the POV - Having the POV on the sheet gives the user the ability to format and print using native Excel functionality.
2 - Flexible Freeform - With the POV on the sheet the user can easily change their POV or the grid orientation by typing or using native Excel formulas, list features, or VBA.
3 - Ability to copy grids from one sheet to another with no loss of the POV. Simply copy and paste.
Hope that clarifies things.

Dynamic row selection based on Page member selection in Planning web-form

Hello experts
I have requirement where, user dont want 10 webforms to enter 2 accounts line for various sparse members. Below is the dimension detail and web-form current design
Account - Dense
Period - Dense
Year - Sparse
Scenario - Sparse
Version - Sparse
Entity - Sparse
Product - Sparse (600 level 0 members)
Product dim has family1 as parent and 40 level 0 mem like that there are 10 family level 1 members, now to enter account member (only 2 member) for 6 years projection ( it means 12 periods and 6 years in column ) , i can build 10 web-forms with one web-form has one family level-0 mem in rows,
however my question, is how can i achieve this in one web-form, instead of 10 web-forms for 400 products ?
your help is greatly appreciated.

Im not sure there is any simple way to get dynamic row selection based on what is selected in the page.
If I were designing the form based on what you have stated, I would probably stick both Account and Year in the page, and the 400 products in rows. This would require the user to select the different combinations of Year / Account, but would mean only 12 columns (instead of 72).
Alternatively you could stick Account in rows too - meaning 800 rows, but less combinations to select in Page....all depends what is deemed acceptable to the user.
Probably other approaches that may be better than above (put Product in the Page for fun!!)
Thanks

Planning Web Forms Performance

Hi,
I am working on a Planning app that has a very large "Products" dimension. It has around 26000 members in it.
I have a web form in which Market is in Page & Products in rows. I also display the attribute association Product Type for Product.
Both Product & Market are sparse dimensions.
I tried both Suppress Missing Data & Missing Blocks in the Form definition.
Suppress Missing Block is a bit quicker (as expected), but it doesn't display the attribute associations for Product.
Suppress Missing Data on the other hand displays attribute associations, but it is very very slow because of the Products dimension size.
Suppress Missing Block doesn't display attributes, is this correct? I don't see this in the documentation? Am I missing anything?
If I have to go with Suppress Missing Data, Is there a way to increase planning web form performance by adding cache or any tweaking similar to Essbase Reporting?
Appreciate your thought.
Thanks,
Ethan.

Cameron & David,
Yes. This is a very strange req. The Product line (26K) are all Level-0 members & there is no fixed Product to Market mapping. Any combination is possible.
Each market will have only few Products presence. I can say around 100 is the max I have seen, but the requirement is any product can come in any market.
I load the cube with actuals from a different source system & users update the forecast data/ drivers to calculate the data.
So the web form itself is not huge. It is just the potential number of possible combinations that is slowing down the web form.
I am still in the initial stages of Development. I am sure I'll have tough time in Calcs, Aggs & Reports by Product.
Appreciate your thoughts.
Thanks,
Ethan.
