Form Types
Choose a form type when you create a form.
Form Type | Description |
---|---|
Collaborative – Student | This type of form is tied to a specific student and can therefore have elements tied to PowerSchool SIS student fields. The collaborative aspect means that multiple users can modify the same set of data. The form shows all viewers the most recent response to the form and supports administrator approval. |
Individual Response – Student | A student-based form that allows each user to have their own response data, separate from others, except for elements that are tied to PowerSchool SIS fields. The form displays only the responder’s last response and does not allow for administrator approval. Examples include student evaluation and discipline forms. |
Fee Payments – Students | This form allows fees to be paid. Refer to the Enable Form Payments setup section for details. |
Individual Response – Teacher | This type of form is tied to a teacher or staff record. Its elements can be tied to PowerSchool SIS School Staff fields. Each user has their own response data. The form displays only the responder’s last response and does not allow for administrator approval. An example is a parent form to evaluate a teacher. |
Collaborative – Teacher | A teacher-based form where all users modify the same set of data. The form displays the most recent response to the form and supports administrator approval. |
General Survey | These forms are not tied to student or teacher data. They are used to collect new data; no prior responses are populated into the form. An example is a field trip form. |
Pre-Registration | This form allows parents to submit new student information before the student record is created in PowerSchool SIS. The form is available for customers who have Enrollment Express. Basic fields required for new student creation are automatically added to the form and mapped to the appropriate PowerSchool SIS fields. You can add new fields and map them to PowerSchool SIS fields and extensions. Parents can submit the pre-registration form publicly without a login. Administrators are notified when the form is submitted and can run the Pre-Registration Submissions report to manage the form’s approval process. Refer to the Pre-Registration Form page for details. |
