42.5 | 44 | === Database tables === |
| |
36.1 | 45 | |
| |
42.5 | 46 | After a form has been submitted, all submitted data will be stored in a database table of the system. For the standard inbox, the system will generate the view with the columns available, which may depend on the user's permissions, the form's state and the inbox. |
| |
7.1 | 47 | |
| |
42.5 | 48 | For the form specific inbox, the system dynamically creates one more database tables for each form. It contains the custom columns as configured for each form. |
| |
1.1 | 49 | |
| |
42.5 | 50 | === Column alias === |
| |
1.1 | 51 | |
| |
38.2 | 52 | {{info}} |
| |
42.5 | 53 | Please note that the column alias is different from the form field alias. Initially, when you create a new inbox configuration, the column alias is set to the form field alias. When you later change the form field alias, the column alias is not updated automatically. |
| |
38.2 | 54 | {{/info}} |
| 55 | |||
| |
42.5 | 56 | An alias can be set for form field in the list on the left hand side by clicking on the edit icon. When an alias has been set, it will be used as the column name of instead of the form field's name. |
| |
1.1 | 57 | |
| |
42.5 | 58 | === Reinitialise inbox === |
| |
1.1 | 59 | |
| |
42.5 | 60 | Have changes been made to the inbox view configuration, clicking the //Save// {{icon name="save"/}} or //Reinitialize// {{icon name="refresh"/}} button will (re-)intialize the form inbox table. |
| 61 | This will read the current inbox settings and recreate the dynamically created database table. This makes it possible to change view of the custom inbox at any time. Depending on the number of form records this may take several minutes. |
