Editable forms in DPS?

We're looking to add a form to a small pub we're building for our sales team use that will allow them to collect data from within the app.  Anybody have any experience with this?  It seems like either LiveCycle or FormsCentral would be useful, but neither of them indicates that you can place the resulting forms directly in a DPS Folio.

For online forms I always use Forms Central, works great.
For offline forms, you'd have to script that using Javascript and the local storage options on your iPad. This is all programming. There's no default option for this in DPS but if you can build it using that Javascript you can embed this using a web overlay.

  • SharePoint 2013 July 2014 CU - People Picker fields empty in Edit forms

    After applying the July 2014 CU for SharePoint server, I discovered that Person or Group (People Picker) fields are not populated with server values in list item Edit forms.  However, the field values can be viewed in list views
    and in Display forms.  I examined the client side code and determined that field data is not being returned from the server for Edit forms. 
    In a test environment, I uninstalled SharePoint 2013, reinstalled SP 2013 with SP1 and the issue went away.  I then applied the May 2014, June 2014, and July 2014 CUs.  The issue did not exist after applying the May and June CUs.  It
    did exist after applying the July 2014 CU.

    There is a workaround for this issue.  It's a little convoluted, but hey, it's SharePoint.  First, you must have a list that has at least one entry in it.
     To begin with, you must first
    have a list with at least one item in the list.
    Next you edit the item with a role that has at least Design privilege, but don't save your changes.
    Instead you Edit the page so you can then edit that web part.  You can edit the page by clicking on the cog icon and selecting Edit Page
    Edit the web part itself
    Under “Miscellaneous” section on the just exposed web part window, select "Server Render (Server Render)" in the drop down labeled “CSR Render Mode
    Click on “Apply” button within the web part
    Save
    I was told also the Sept CU would fix the issue but it is under review and to wait until the first of October.  Incidentally we found that if you put the entire list into Quick Edit mode, the issue does
    not appear.
    I hope this helps someone.

    Hi chuck,
    If you ave created the form and then filling it yourself and saving the form, the filled data should be there when you reopen the same form.
    Can you please send the form to me at [email protected]  so that I can have a look.

  • Editing Form Fields inside Acrobat? (after using LiveCycle Designer)

    Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended ==  Acrobat
    LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2 == LiveCycle Designer
    =========================================
    Say I downloaded a new PDF from the interwebs.
    I want to add some forms fields so I go to Forms ==> Add or Edit Fields... (inside Acrobat)
    Now Acrobat will detect possible places where to add the form fields. I make changes etc. Then I am  satisfied with my form fields.
    Now say I want to remove a particular object from the PDF, lets take an image as an example.
    So I fire up  LiveCycle Designer; File ==> New ==> Import a PDF document ==>  Create an Interactive Form with a Flowable Layout.
    I remove that pesky little object.
    In LiveCycle Designer, I save the file as PDF.
    I open up Acrobat. I realize I need to make some more changes to some of the Form  Fields.
    But now instead of "Add or Edit Fields..." option I get "Edit Form in  Designer..."
    I hate the GUI of LiveCycle Designer --- I had rather edit the form  fields from inside Acrobat, as it is easy and fast to change multiple  form fields in a few clicks.

    Thank you Niall for the above response; Your response gave me an idea which allowed me to remove that line by zooming in to 200%
    You know Acrobat detects Form Fields for you.
    But many times it makes mistakes, for example in the screenshot below it made the boxes that came with the PDF as text fields instead of check boxes.
    The thing is rather than me delete the (form) fields it detected, and start over by making new check boxes, I will not be able to place my new check box in exact locations as Acrobat has done.
    When I imported the fields that Acrobat made into LC (by saving the PDF in Acrobat and then opening it with LC) I get option to change the Object Type from Text Field to Check Box when I right click the object.
    Is there a similar way to change the Object Type from Text Field to Check Box inside Acrobat? Any suggestions?
    ===========
    I would really like to do it inside Acrobat because then if I have to make some minor changes to some field properties, all my hard work which I did by filling the fields gets deleted, as I am forced to use LC. The text I add to the fields don't get deleted when I edit the field properties inside Acrobat. I don't know why LC decides to delete all the text which is filled out in the form fields even though the PDF is saved in Acrobat before being imported into LC?
    Here is the above PDF file with the text boxes:

    Again thanks for all your guidance so far.

  • How to allow users to edit form

    Maybe this isn't a typical use for these forms, but I thought I would give it a try.  I need to create product specification forms for my designers to fill out to give to their clients.  There are standard fields in the form such as product information, pricing., etc that remain fixed. However, my designers need to be able to edit the form in order to place different product images since there doesn't seem to be an option for users to directly up images into the document(unless I missed it).   In Adobe Acrobat Pro, users can edit PDF images and content to suite their specific needs.  I need to enable this option on my form when creating them, so my designers can edit forms according to their project.  After opening a PDF Form I created in FormsCentral in Adobe Acrobat Pro, I click "Edit Text & Images," but I get a message that "This is a secured document.  Editing is not permitted." When creating a form, what do I need to do so that my documents may be edited or is it even possible with this program.
    Thanks,
    Valerie with Fresh Perspective Design & Decor

    Thank you, that worked!  I'm new to Adobe FormCentral and this is the first PDF document I've ever created.  I see how it could be beneficial to have forms submitted in the future for questionaires that our clients fill out, however, I thought this might be a useful tool for just creating a PDF document.  Maybe there is a better way to go about doing it, but thus far this is the best option I've seen yet unless you can recommend something that would be more effective.  I recently became a Creative Cloud member and I just stumbled across FormCentral while looking for a solution to creating these forms.  Normally I would have created a document like that in Microsoft Word, however, I thought this would be less time consuming for my designers to fill out. Are you aware of another way that would be more effective?  I'm afraid I am not super tech savy, but do learn new programs quite quickly.  Thanks for your assistance!

  • Error with Provider Hosted App on Edit Form of a list item

    We have an error on the Edit Form of one of our pages.
    We have developed a SharePoint Online Provider Hosted app which replaces the standard edit form of a list item and has some further events behind the save button. Since this is rather new territory for us, we're using a roundabout way of achieving this by
    using a script editor web part to display an iFrame of our app. That way we can pass the Url through to our app and retrieve query strings from them.
    Our issue comes quite intermittently in that we sometimes get a "web page cannot be found" error or sometimes a "resource cannot be found" error, however, when we load another app on the site (from the same app project, but using an app
    part), then go back to the Edit Form, the information in the iFrame suddenly renders.
    Any ideas on what might be causing this issue at all? Ideally, we should be rendering the app to the Edit Form is the proper manner, rather than scripting an iFrame that points to out app in Azure. Would this be the cause of the problem?
    Thanks
    Tom

    Hi thumper, if you have access to InfoPath, you can add the form to a page using the InfoPath web part. Otherwise, use SP Designer with instructions below:

  • SharePoint Designer 2010 Error occurs when accessing Edit Form: "The server returned a non-specific error when trying to get data from the data source ..." This occurs when using "" in a calculated column in a SharePoint List

    I created a calculated column "Expiration Date" in SharePoint 2010 with formula, =IF([Contingent Hire]=TRUE,(Created+90),(IF([Contingent Hire]=FALSE," ")))
    This works in the SharePoint list but when I go to edit the Edit Form in Designer. I get the error specified in the title of this post. I'm trying to make it so the Expiration Date is blank when another column, "Contingent Hire" (a YES/No
    column) is FALSE.
    The Edit Form is essentially a DataViewWebpart. If I remove the " ", like so, "(IF([Contingent Hire]=FALSE,))" from the calc column, the error goes away; however, the Expiration Date field does not
    remain blank like I want it to.
    Does anyone have any suggestions? (Below is the error generated when I open Designer and then try to open the Edit form for the corresponding list containing the calc column)
    JackSki123

    Hi Jack,
    Could you provide a screenshot about this issue?
    As Dimitri suggested, you can install the update for your SharePoint Designer and check again.
    And you can also check if you can display "NA" instead of " " in your calculated column per the following post.

    Hi,
    It would be better if you could provide the steps in details about how you customize your Edit Form.
    Anyway, you can take a look at the similar thread below, there is someone stuck with the similar issue before:

  • How-to synchronize edit forms for a single View Object tree node entrie

    Hi all,
    I created a tree from a single View Object,
    follow this [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/32-tree-table-from-single-vo-169174.pdf]
    then i want to create and synchronize edit forms for tree node entries,
    follow this [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/50-synchromize-form-treeselection-169192.pdf]
    but it not working when i click child node!!
    i found the latter tree from many View Object ,but the former tree from single View Object.
    what should i do?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    say the tree is built from ViewObject1. In the AM model, create a second View Object instance for this. Say ViewObject2. Create the form from ViewObject2 and the tree from ViewObject1. When creating the tree, use the"Target Data Source" option at the bottom to reference the iterator of ViewObject2. Then create a PartialTrigger on the paneFormLayout that holds the synch form. In the partial trigger property, reference the tree so that when the tree selection changes, the form is updated. Then create a PartialTrigger property on the tree and point it to the submit button of the form so you can show updated values in the tree.

  • What is the best method of making revisions to a PDF document with editable form fields?

    I created several documents/forms in Microsoft Word in order to use tables for formatting, then turned them into PDFs using Acrobat X Pro.  The auto form field recognition feature in Acrobat doesn't always recognize every field in the document, so I had to manually create some of them and alter their properties for correct font size, scroll long text, etc.  I now need to revise / add more information to the documents.  The only thing I know to do is to make these revisions to the original Word document, save as PDF, and redo all editable form fields again.  Is there an easier way to edit these documents while keeping the current editable fields and their properties?  Thanks.

    Thank you!  That seems to work fine and keeps my old editable form fields.

  • Post Migration from SP2010 -Attach File Button not working in any list new/edit forms

    Hi,
    We have migrated the SharePoint 2010 farm to Sharepoint 2013 on last saturday and we are noticing an interesting issue after the migration .
    On any custom list on any web application ,When we create a new item,if we click on attach file button in the ribbon,nothing shows up on the screen.
    In the browser Dev Tools its showing an error message as "Cannot read Property style of null".
    This is happening on a javascript (form.debug.js) on line No : 5276
    (document.getElementById("partAttachment")).style.display = "block";
    There is no element rendered in html with id "partAttachment",which is causing this error to happen.
    Solutions tried are
    1) Modified the List Advanced Settings to disable and enable the attachments ,which did not work
    2) Ran the Sharepoint Configuration wizard which did not fix 
    3)Tried reset the site definition for all pages in the site from site settings
    4) Deactivated and activated all the activated features in the site collection
    Its an OOB List New Form,no customizations has been done.
    Similar error occurring with List Edit form as well
     when you click on the List Item in the List default view when you navigate to the list and when you click on attach file,a popup dialog to upload attachments appearing,However its not working when you
    navigate into the list item and tried to upload attachment.
