Custom Forms: Templates for Inspections and Reporting

Written by Zuzanna Geib | Jun 18, 2020

Custom Forms are an easy way to create templates for your inspection and reporting process. Forms are created and managed in the magicplan Cloud. Once completed, they can be published to the magicplan App and shared with your Workspace and Team members. Forms can be exported in the Report PDF.

What are Custom Forms?

Forms provide a structured workflow for you to collect information. The magicplan Cloud allows you to create templates with lists of questions that can be assigned to the overall project, floors, rooms or objects. 

By using Custom Forms, you can easily:

  • add a set of questions to a form
  • format by adding sections and separators
  • apply logic to create follow-up questions 
  • organize questions using drag and drop
  • mark important questions as mandatory
  • assign forms to a specific context (project, floor, room, object)
  • share form templates to your Workspace and Team members

Question types include:

  • Yes/No questions
  • Drop-down questions
  • Text Fields
  • Distance (includes imperial and metric units)
  • Number
  • Photo (add photos from the gallery or camera)
  • Color (color selector of the app)
  • Date and Time

What's coming

In futures releases, we will be adding a dedicated interface in the app to fill forms and collect reporting data in general. This interface will offer a structured view to work through a predefined Form.
