How do I create multiple form flow in a single form?

    Asked on July 3, 2020 at 8:21 PM

    Hi, we are a doctor's office -- we have opened a free account to explore JotForm features before we purchase a subscription. We will send jot forms to patients -- I suppose as email them links before their doctor's visit.

    We have multiple forms -- personal information, medical history, medical consent forms etc. 

    My questions --

    - Is it possible to email just one link but still have have the patients fill out multiple forms?

    - New patients fill out more forms than established patients. How do we achieve this if sending just one link? Can we ask upfront whether they are an established patient or a new patient, and then accordingly display the necessary forms?

    You may build a main form that will behave like a menu form. Then based on the selection you may redirect to the respective forms to be filled.

    Here is a Demo Form:

    Thank you, this is helpful. Do you have instructions on how to create such
    a menu form?
    Also, after completing each form can I keep bringing the user back to the
    menu form?
    The other solution I thought of was to create each form as a separate page
    within the same form. Then can I have conditional logic to skip some pages
    for existing patients?
    Thanks

    Hi there,

    You may create all of the fillable documents in just one form and set up conditions to skip parts that are unnecessary.

    I have built the menu using the Paragraph element. Please insert this code in the Source code of the element as shown. Place the URL which you want to be redirected replacing the below URL in bold:

    <a style="background-color: orange; padding: 10px; color: white; text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.jotform.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">New Registration form</a>

    There are different ways to create the form. You could also implement this in a single form as you have thought and based on the choice selected in a Radio Option or Dropdown you could hide a particular page.

    To bring the user back to the same form. You may redirect the User to the same form in spite of showing a Thankyou page.
