What is the best way to set up a multiple entry item list/field within a form?
I'm not sure I worded that my question correctly, but I am trying to create a form at the moment that, in addition to several other questions/fields, asks the user to submit any income/deduction items not already set up and for each entry to give the EE Name, EE #, EE Type, Income/Deduction Name & Amount. Is there a way to do this without having to create a set of columns for each of these fields times however many entries there could be? We'd like to give them the ability to enter as many items for this as they need/want.
I would appreciate any help/suggestions on this, thank you!

I developed a solution using two forms (or the same form by using conditional logic) that can be used to submit the main information and then the other information on a new row for each submission after the first.
Would that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!
