Overview

iVendNext’s Web Forms go beyond basic data collection—they offer advanced features that enable dynamic workflows, intelligent automation, and seamless integrations. This guide explores these powerful capabilities to help you build sophisticated forms that enhance productivity and user experience.

1. Dynamic Field Control

Conditional Logic & Field Dependencies

Show/hide fields based on user input to create smart, adaptive forms:

// Example: Display "Additional Feedback" only if rating is ≤ 3  

frappe.ui.form.on("Feedback", {  

    "rating": function(frm) {  

        frm.toggle_display("additional_feedback", frm.doc.rating <= 3);  

    }  

});  

Use Cases:
✔ Show follow-up questions for negative feedback
✔ Display warranty fields for product-related feedback
✔ Hide irrelevant sections based on user type

Dynamic Default Values

Auto-populate fields using:

• Session data (logged-in user details)

• URL parameters (e.g., ?product_id=123)

• Linked documents (via Dynamic Link fields)

2. Enhanced Field Types

Specialized Input Options

File & Image Uploads

• Restrict file types (PDF, PNG, etc.)

• Set maximum upload size

• Auto-attach to linked documents

3. Automation & Workflow Integration

Auto-Assign Actions

Trigger workflows when forms are submitted:

1. Create Tasks for support teams on low ratings

2. Update CRM Records with new feedback

3. Send Alerts via email/SMS for urgent responses

# Example: Auto-create support ticket for poor ratings  

def on_submit(doc, method):  

    if doc.rating <= 2:  

        frappe.get_doc({  

            "doctype": "Support Ticket",  

            "subject": f"Negative Feedback: {doc.name}",  

            "priority": "High"  

        }).insert()
