Including row comments with a form

Phil Wightman

I want to send a form as a regular update request but need to include the row level comments. However I can't see how to attach comments when using the form builder.

Hi @Phil Wightman

Unfortunately, it's not possible to include comments in a form because it's not connected to a specific row.

The best option would probably be the standard update request feature.

Make sense?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Thanks @Andrée Starå

I noticed that the update function allows comments due to the row association. Does that mean I'd have to set one up for every row as they all require a monthly update? I need to include the comments as they are being uses as a record of previous months updates (history).

Happy to help!

No, fortunately, you can set up a recurring Update Request Workflow instead.

Would that work?
