I'm building a fairly complex job-request web form to feed a grid that tracks marketing-creative requests for our designers and web developers, and I have a question:
I'm gathering two kinds of data: one kind that is concise and drops easily into my tracking grid, and another kind that is much more descriptive and longer. I don't really want the latter kind of data cluttering up my grid, but it needs to be available to me as the recipient of the job-request form and also to our designers. I don't want them scrolling horizontally through an unwieldy wide grid to find out what they are to work on. I can hide these longer columns in the grid, but this data does need to be passed to me and to the people working on the project.
When a requester fills out my new web form, I know she can elect to be copied on all the data she entered. Isn't there a way for me (as the recipient of the form) to also be copied? Again, I know the point here is that the data flows directly into my grid, but for the reason above, I need to see it in a vertical format as well, for readability.
All advice greatly appreciated.
