Collect intake and consent forms
Build a form, attach it to a service, and read customer answers.
Before you start
Forms are a feature you switch on. Go to Settings, turn on Intake forms and click Save changes.
Build a form
- Step 1: Open Forms and click New form.
- Step 2: Pick a ready-made template (such as New client intake or Consent & liability waiver) or Blank form, then click Create form.
- Step 3: In the editor, change the Form name and Description if you like.
- Step 4: For each question, write the Question label and choose a Type (short text, date, single choice and so on). For choice questions, put each option on its own line.
- Step 5: Tick Required for questions customers must answer. Use the arrows to reorder.
- Step 6: Optionally add a Placeholder: example text shown inside the box.
- Step 7: Click Add field for more questions, then Save form.
- You can edit a form at any time. Answers already given stay on the Responses tab; removing a question hides its answers.
- Untick Active to stop asking customers to fill it in. Earlier responses are kept.
Attach it to a service
After booking, the customer sees the form on their manage-booking page (the link in their confirmation email) and fills it in there.
- Step 1: Open Services and edit the service.
- Step 2: Choose your form in the service settings and save.
Read the answers
- Step 1: Open Forms and click the form.
- Step 2: Click the Responses tab. Each card shows who answered, for which service and when.
Tip: You can also see a customer's forms on their record in Customers.
