Data Capture
Almost all of our projects require end-users or clients to provide data via
commonly used mechanisms such as a web interface. Some of these inputs
require web pages to be pre-populated with data, others require users to
provide documents along with their submissions and some more advanced pages
require password-protected access where the password is communciated to the
client seperately via SMS or email.

VForms allows
for a wide collection of data input across multiple pages collected and
based upon the existing metadata in MS CRM. In other words it extends the
existing record types in MS CRM to be populated from an external web page.
Below is a simple example of how we would extend the contact in MS CRM record to
allow it being updated by the contact itself.
- Extend the Firstname, Lastname, Email and City fields to a easily populated
and updatable web page.
- Modify the City picklist field to allow only
entries for New York and London via the web interface.
- Require the
contact to provide their IDNo field as password before being
allowed to update the field.

The contact would be sent an email with an encrypted IDNo requesting them to
update their details. The IDNo field on the contact record would be used to
verify the contact's identity. Contacts would also need to specify either
New York or London as a city field.
Data entry fields can resemble
very complicated web pages and we can assist you to create these pages
quickly and easily.
