How to Create Registration Forms


This topic shows you how to create forms that contain census data from the family record. You can generate two types of forms:

       Auto-filled: contain fields automatically populated with a family's current data. Auto-filled forms are useful for verifying that the information you currently have for registered families is correct. For example, you can generate the form and then print it so that a family can review it and make changes directly on the printed form. You can update the family's record based on the changes provided.

       Blank: contain field labels but no content. Blank forms are useful for collecting information from non-registered families. For example, you can print each family's form and request that they complete the information in the fields on the form. You can then use the form to enter the family's data into your system.

You can also customize the language of the form to show field labels in English, Español (Spanish), or English and Español (Spanish).
