Bookem's document forms

As Bookem evolves, so does its terminology. To keep you updated, here are the changes: Booking forms are now service forms, note forms are now document forms, and sendable forms remain the same.

Document forms, a Bookem Premium feature, let you create custom reusable forms for use within Documents.

How to create a document form

Follow these steps:

1. Go to Documents > Forms

2. Click '+ New form'

3. Name your Note Form and click 'Create'

4. Next, add form fields to your Document Form by selecting from the following field types:

  • Text fields: Text fields are for short and long text entries

  • Drop-downs: Drop-downs can be used for custom options or be linked to data lists

  • Checkboxes: Checkbox fields allow you to select multiple options

  • Multiple choice: Multiple choice fields allow you to select only one option

  • Diagrams: Add images or body charts, useful for annotating progress reports or questionnaires

Here's an example:

This is a patient assessment document form, with images, short text, and long text added to it

How to add a document form into a document

Follow these steps:

1. Open a new or existing document

2. Select +Insert and then Form from the drop-down menu

3. Now, select the document form that you want to add

4. Once you've selected the form, it will open. You can choose to fill it in, or insert it blank, by scrolling to the bottom and clicking 'Update'

5. Remember to save your document by clicking 'Create & close' / 'Save & close'

Note: If a note form with *required fields (forced) is inserted into a document, any forced, required fields will be overridden to be optional, and filling in these fields will be the onus of the team member taking notes.
