There are several types of form available to you on Makerble:

External Signup Pages

You can also embed these Signup Pages within your own website
Whenever you receive a new signup or referral through your Signup Page, you and your colleagues in that project can receive a notification

Contact Forms

Every person you support is saved as a Contact on Makerble.
Contact Forms are used to create contacts
You can have as many Contact Forms as you like
Each Contact Form contains a set of fields, e.g. Name, Gender, Date of Birth, etc
Contact Forms are best suited to capture:
- Contact Details
- Demographic Data
- Communications Preferences
- GDPR statements
Contact Forms are designed for static information about a person
Demographic information saved in Contact Forms can be reported visually
For things that you expect will change over time and where you need to report that change over time, e.g. an increase in confidence, use Surveys instead

When surveys are completed, the response is saved as a story that appears on the timeline of the contact(s) who is/are tagged in it.
You can use surveys and stories to capture Attendance, Meeting Notes and Outcomes Achieved
Surveys can be completed by your staff or you can send them to individual contacts to complete
Information saved in survey responses (stories) can be visualised and analysed in several ways

Case Forms are suited to when you work in a traditional Case Management manner whereby you need to organise the things you do to help a particular contact (client) into a variety of cases
When a new case is created, you use a Case Form to do that
You can create have a variety of Case Forms so that you can collect different information about each type of case you work on
You can see the updates for a particular case on the Case page
You can analyse and report your case management data visually on Makerble
You can also use Case Forms to keep track of funding applications. The funder will exist in Makerble as a Contact and each grant application exists as a Case. The Case Form in that instance contains fields such as
- Application deadline (Date field)
- Grant size (Number field)

Whenever you create an event on Makerble, you use an Event Creation Form. The default Event Creation Form fields are:
- Event Name
- Start Date & Time
- End Date & Time
- Location
You can add your own fields to the Event Creation Form
You can create several Event Creation Forms that collect different information for each type of event you organise
You can see, analyse and report the staffing, time spent and attendance at events across your organisation

When you add a guest to an event you can optionally fill in a Guest Booking Form that captures event-specific information about that guest
Some of our clients use this to capture the Pick Up Time and Drop Off Address for a guest at an event. For each type of event you organise, you can create a Guest Booking Form containing your choice of fields.
