Hi everyone,
I would like to know if it's possible to have different forms for each
sales agent that allow them to select a customer from a dropdown list
and be able to add new directly from the form if it's not present.
After, would be possible to sync contacts with the main DB?
Thanks!
hi alberto,
collect doesn't have the ability to change values on the
device in that way. you need to talk to a server at some point. i've
put my suggestions inline.

and be able to add new directly from the form if it's not present.
the easiest way to do this is to have a drop down list. if the user doesn't
select an item, then show a free text prompt where they can. when you
submit the form, you can then build some
server side magic that regenerates forms occasionally with new
customers.

you can certainly write some (mobile or server) code that does all
this, but we currently don't support such functionality. i'm glad to
describe how you'd go about implementing these features if you are
interested.
