Creating Quote form that goes to a shopping cart

I'm hoping someone can help me work through this question; I have a customer who would like a type of quote form on their site. Their customer would be able to get a quote on a product that has multiple parts which they would select the parts from drop-down menus on a form, then they submit the form to a holding cart type place, then they might want another quote on another item and then they could submit that quote to the holding cart, etc. There might be many objects or quotes that they might want quotes on, THEN they can submit ALL of the product quotes to my customer at the same time.  So it's kind of a shopping cart type idea (purchase all items at once) but no payments involved, no pricing, just wanting to be able to submit several quotes all at once, not one at a time. This needs to start out with quite a detailed form, I can do that, but it's the submitting many forms in a batch format that I'm not quite sure where or how to do.
Do I start with a shopping cart or is there some other format to use?
Any ideas?

Does it matter that anyone could enter the right name in the form to return the customer data? If so you need to use a password.
1. Create a form through which the customer can register their details with a user name and password.
2. On the server side hash the password with something like SHA256 (plenty of open source implementations about or you can create your own).
3. Store the customer details together with a userid and hashed password in the server database
4. Create a form through which the customer can request their details, and asks them for their userid and password.
6. On the server side, rehash the password from the form and request a row from the customer database where the userid and hashed password match an entry
7. Return the customer data if row retrieved from database else return a message saying on data matching those details etc.

  • I am creating a form on LiveCycle Designer and I am trying to create a form that has a e-mail submit button.  When the butten is utilized it attaches the form to the e-mail in an plain text .xml format rather than the pdf format.  Is there a quick fix?

    Hi,
    You have the choice between xml or pdf, in later versions of designer you can choose with a dropdown on the email button Object palette, the "Submit As";
    In earlier version you had to edit the XML Source and change the format from xml to pdf (or vice-versa);

  • How do you create a form that has user permissions per form field for different user?

    I need to create a form that is used by multi people but each user needs to fill out different fields within the form. I need the first user to make selections from a list and save it to send to another (the selection fields then need to be locked). Then the other user checks one of the selections made by the first user and saves the document to send back to the first user. Not sure if this is possible. I would like the first form field selections not to even show as a highlighted field to the other user (like just be more like a text field). I want the document to be able to be used more than once. The list selections will change and need to be sent to the other user at least once a month or more. Has anyone done this?

    There's no built-in way to do that, but it's probably doable using a custom-made script to hide and/or lock the fields.

  • How do I create a form that can be edited, then mailed, then edited again?

    I am trying to create a form that would be emailed to one person, they would complete part of it, email it on to a second user who would then complete another part based on the input from the first, and then forward it onto a third for their input.
    the issue I have is that once the second person enters their information, they can not save their additions and continue the process.
    any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Interactive forms cannot be saved locally using Reader. To do local save you either have to have Acrobat on each desktop or have the form Reader-extended to enable local save in Reader. A form is Reader-enabled using the LiveCycle Reader Extensions server component.

    George - Thanks you so much!  Actually, i'd love for the text color to be red font color.  Could you send me the script for that? And I assume I just copy and paste the script into the field properties (see screenshot)?
    thanks again!

    I want to be able to fill out the form and it place itself into Sheet 1 without changing everytime.  I can index the array from the form, but it changes everytime.

    You think it would be the other way around.
    Just speculation, but forms probably came to iOS first because of likely use for data entry in the field that syncs back to the Mac.  On a small screen with a touch interface, forms make inputing values easier.
    On the Mac, with its bigger screen, typing directly into a data table often works well enough.

  • Create fillable forms that automatically fill out a letter

    Hi, so I'm new to acrobat (and adobe in general) and I wnated to know if anyone had a way of doing this. So what I want to do is to create a form that takes people's information. It will take things like Names, Phone numbers, emails, etc. Then, it will ask them to choose what kind of form they want to create. So, it could be a letter, or a memo, whatever. Based on their choice, I then want to make another form, with all of their information filled in for them, appear. I've made a form for the first part, but I would like to know if anyone could explain how to do the second part, where it creates the new page for me.

    If the end user is using Adobe Reader to fill this out then no, it isn't possible.
    I can say whether it would be possible if all parties are using Adobe Acrobat but I doubt that it is.
    You chould probably look in to creating a web application that can generate a PDF.

  • Creating Secure Form that Outputs from a Database?

    I need to create a form that pulls data from a database (of any format) based on what the user enters.  Specifically, I want a customer to be able to enter their name in a field and output data based on their name.  I was about to use a standard PHP mail form methodology, but I realize this would be insecure (I would like to keep my customer list hidden).  Can someone offer a suggestion on what I should look for in creating a secure form/database output structure for my site?  Even if it's just the name of the method so I can search for a tutorial.  Thank you!

    Does it matter that anyone could enter the right name in the form to return the customer data? If so you need to use a password.
    1. Create a form through which the customer can register their details with a user name and password.
    2. On the server side hash the password with something like SHA256 (plenty of open source implementations about or you can create your own).

  • Does anyone know the best way to create a form that you can do a mail merge with?

    I have been asked to create a form that can be used to do a mail merge. At first I thought I could create it in indesign and then pdf the file and do form fields right in the pdf, but I'm not sure if you can do a mail merge with data in an excel file and a pdf file containing form fields.
    The other option I know I could use is a Word file and excel, but I don't think the functionality is as good as in a pdf (like addition of percentages, or error messages, radio buttons, etc.). And I do need to be able to do a mail merge. Anybody have any suggestions?

    There is not built-in feature for this, but it can be done with scripting. The problem is it can be a bit complicated, and it more complicated to decribe in much detail in a forum posting. It involves creating the base form and making the pages templates. You can export from Excel to a tab delimited text file. You can then either programmatically create a template-based FDF that when loaded into Acrobat populates the PDF form, creating as many individual forms as needed, or using JavaScript in Acrobat to read the data file and generate as many individual forms as needed. Both approaches involve a similar amount of programming, but they're quite different.

    I would like to create a form that gives the user opportunities to provide information on as many as 50 projects. Does Adobe FormsCentral allow for this "expandable" type of form, such that if someone only has 10 projects, they can complete the form as easily as someone with 50 projects. In other words, is there a way to make the form "expandable?"

    Hi Ms Buckner,
    Yes, you can do this with the Show/Hide "Skip" logic rules.
    1. Suppose, for example, you have your first ten projects showing by default.
    2. At the end of those fields, you would have a Yes/No question asking if the person wanted to add more projects.
    3. If they answer "No", they move on to the next section/area/question/etc.
    4. If they answer "Yes" you have the form display ten more project fields that you had already included, but you had hidden up to this point.
    5. Repeat steps two, three, and four as often as needed. (It helps that you can copy and paste fields, including groups of questions, so you don't have to manually re-create them each time.)
    It means you must anticipate the maximum number of times you want to provide project fields, but you've already done that, and you have to build the form with that maximum number, but only display smaller portions at a time until they have filled in all they need.
    I hope that helps,
    Brian

  • I want to create a form that i can drop pictures in a certain place

    i want to create a form that i can drop pictures into

    Unfortunately Formscentral does not support drag and drop pictures into your form. If you want to form filler submit their images with other form data, you can use file attachment field. Add an file attachment field when design form, so that form filler can add their image file into it and submit with other form data.
