Example Submission Listing page (2.1)
Every time a Form Tools user look at a Submission Listings page, they're looking at it through a
View.
This topic is also discussed in the
Views section but it's worth covering again here. The advantage
to this approach is that you can construct an unlimited number of ways to view subsets of
your form data, based on whatever information you're storing. This can be helpful for
reporting purposes and for clarifying the data for easier presentation.
The contents of the submissions table is constructed through the Edit View pages. The
screenshot below shows a close-up of the Edit View ยป Fields tab. This
page is very important: this is where you choose which fields should appear in the View,
how they are grouped, which groups belong on which tab and whether the fields are
searchable.
Edit View -> Fields tab #1 (2.1)
The other most important settings that affect the submissions table are found in the
first and second tabs of the Edit View page (the "Main" and "Columns" sub-tabs,
respectively).
The columns tab controls which form fields should
appear as columns, how wide they should be, how to handle truncating the data and more.
