Detail Tables and Batch Entry

Some processes require entering lists of repetitive data (order lines, participant lists, plan actions). Detail tables provide an "Excel-like" interface to manage these rows quickly without leaving the form.

Detail table for batch entry

Features

Adding Rows

Click the + or Add button (usually located at the top of the table) to insert a new blank row.

Inline Editing

Click directly in a table cell to modify its value (Text, Date, Dropdown list), just like in a spreadsheet.

Automatic Calculations

Totals (Sum, Average) update in real-time at the bottom of numeric columns if configured.

Batch Entry

Allows you to modify the same information across multiple rows simultaneously.

  1. Check the boxes for the relevant rows.
  2. Use the group modification option to apply a value (e.g., Change the status of 10 actions to "Completed").
Business Case Example (Quality)

During an Internal Audit, the auditor identifies several non-conformities. In the audit report:

  1. They use the "Findings" detail table.
  2. They quickly add 5 rows corresponding to the 5 non-conformities, indicating the severity and process for each.
  3. They can enter descriptions on the fly, without opening 5 different forms.
