• Praxsuite Forms: Components OverviewA form is built by dragging components from the palette onto the canvas. There are thirteen of them, and choosing the right one matters more than the layout does — the…
• Tag Component in FormsThe Tag component collects several short labels in one field. Each label is stored as a separate value, not as one comma-separated string — which is the whole reason to…
• Phone ComponentThe Phone component gives someone a country selector and a number field, so the country code is picked rather than typed.
• Rating ComponentThe Rating component asks for a score on a fixed scale, in one tap.
• Text Box ComponentThe Text Box is the default input, and the only decision worth thinking about is which column it writes to. Bind it to a Short Text column and you get 255 characters;…
• Boolean ComponentThe Boolean component captures a yes/no answer.
• QR Scanner ComponentThe QR Scanner turns the device camera into an input. The person points it at a code and the field fills itself.
• State ComponentThe State component offers exactly the options a Status column allows, and nothing else. It is the only form component whose choices come from your data model rather than…
• Date Picker ComponentThe Date Picker collects one calendar date from a calendar, so nobody has to guess whether you wanted 03/04 to mean March or April.
• Date Range ComponentThe Date Range collects a start day and an end day as one answer, in one field.
• File ComponentThe File component lets someone attach files to their submission, by picking them or dragging them onto the field.

• Scheduler ComponentThe Scheduler turns a form into a booking page. It shows a month, marks which days still have room, and offers the free slots on the day someone picks.
• Structure Components: Text and ImageTwo components in the palette collect nothing. Text and Image exist to make the rest of the form make sense.
• Protected FormsA form has three visibility levels, and they answer one question: who is allowed to open it.
