• the database table this form saves to
• if the form is enabled
• if the form should display the password box(Auth)
• if the form requires a patient to be selected first (Patient)

Field order/shared fields

Some fields are "shared" - used across multiple forms. Click a field in the left box and select "Edit selected item" to edit a field. You may not delete a field because you could cause serious problems w/ form data from previous visits if you delete a field; however, you may disable the field (uncheck "Enabled"). When you disable a shared field, it is disabled from all forms that use it. This can be tricky - you need to have a way to remove a shared field from a form. See the Shared Fields page for more information on shared fields.
