Forms And Inspection Questions
The inspection form is loaded from the shared form attached to the selected control item. Your answers should follow the visible form fields in order.
Where the questions come from
Inspection questions come from the published shared form attached to the selected control item. The form can include plain text, option fields, multi-select fields, product pickers, and file upload fields.
- Fields are processed in their defined order.
- Answer state is based on stable field keys, not just labels.
- Visible required fields must be answered before submission.
- Visible blocking fields stop progress until they are answered.
- Hidden fields should not be submitted.
Conditional questions
- 1Answer the current visible field
Start with the first visible question and choose the value that reflects the inspection.
- 2Watch for follow-up questions
If a rule makes another field relevant, the portal can show it after your earlier answer.
- 3Review changed answers
Changing an earlier answer can hide later questions and clear answers that no longer apply.
- 4Use the current option list
Some option fields change their available choices based on earlier answers.
- 5Submit only when visible requirements are complete
Backend validation also checks required, blocking, visibility, and option rules.
When a form asks for products, users choose from products selected by the form creator. The field is not a free search across the whole product catalog.
Common reasons a form cannot be submitted
- A required visible field has no answer.
- A blocking field has not been answered.
- An answer was left on a field that became hidden.
- A selected option is no longer valid after another answer changed.
- A product field is missing the required product selection.
