Is there a widget or other method to allow users to enter data into a form each day and then submit the completed form at the end of the month?

    Hello,

    I would like to create a form to track daily temperatures of a medical refrigerator.  Is there a widget or other method to allow users to enter data into a form each day and then submit the completed form at the end of the month?

     

    Thank you.

    Brian

    Unfortunately, it is not possible to save data in a widget and submit the form at a later time. However, you could do the following with a native Input Table field, and save the data through a session URL until it gets submitted:

    1) Create your main form, where you could use a Input Table field for the users to enter the temperatures for each day:

    Note: to display the text boxes inside the Input Table field, you need to select that option under the "Fields" section of the "Input Table Properties":

    2) Once you are done with this main form. Create another form which the user will need to submit first to get the session URL of your main form.
