**Follow the written steps below for the current field editor controls.**

### Further Reading

On TUIO, you can create forms to have students register in a program, and gather student and family information.

### **Creating a New Form**

To create a form, first navigate to the **Forms** tab, and click the **CREATE** button in green to create a new form.

Enter the Internal name and External name, choose Registration or Form, then click Create. The Internal name is what you will see as an organization admin, while the External name is the form name that parents will see on their end.

You will need to choose if the form is a Registration form or a Form that's not associated with registrations.

You can change the form type from Registration to Form, and vice versa, by [Duplicating](https://support.tuiopay.com/how-to-update-forms-on-tuio?hsLang=en) it.

Examples of registration forms include Applications, Enrollment forms, or forms linked to fee-based programs like a Pizza Lunch or Field Trip. If you are collecting information outside a registration, choose Form rather than Registration in the create dialog.

Click on the form name and then the **FIELD EDITOR** tab. Use the **Available fields** panel to find standard and custom fields.

Use **Search fields** or the field-type filters to find an existing field in the Available fields panel.

### Choose where an answer should be saved

Use the appropriate **Student profile fields**, **Parent profile fields** or **Enrollment profile fields** section when the answer should be stored on that profile and reused.

Use **Form custom fields** for questions that belong only to this form. Their answers are saved with each submission and are not copied to the parent, student or enrollment profile. These fields support types such as text, dropdown, date, address, phone and file upload.

In Available fields, use Parent profile fields, Student profile fields or Enrollment profile fields for answers stored on those profiles. The Parent and Student sections list standard fields first, then custom fields below a divider. Enrollment profile fields contains custom fields only. Use Form custom fields for answers that should stay with this form's submissions. Check the field's group before adding it. Enrollment profile fields are available on Registration forms, not ordinary Form-type forms.

Once the fields are added to the form, you can drag fields up or down to reorder the form, and you can delete fields from the trash icon.

### Edit and duplicate fields

Open a custom field's menu in the **Field editor** and choose **Edit** or **Duplicate** directly. Edit the available label, options, response notes or content, then choose **Save**. Choose **Cancel** to discard changes in the dialog.

**Duplicate** asks for a new label. The Available fields list refreshes after the editor is saved. Use the required-response control when a parent must answer a question.

### Control PDF page breaks

Add a **Page Break** in the Field editor to start subsequent content on a new page in a PDF. A dashed rule marks the break in the editor. It does not appear while someone fills in or views the form, and it is not included in the report CSV. A Page Break at the end does not add a blank PDF page.

Refer to our article for more information on how to [enable online registrations](https://support.tuiopay.com/how-to-enable-online-registrations-on-tuio?hsLang=en) in a program, with your form attached.

### Show questions conditionally

To show a question based on an earlier answer, see [How to Show Form Questions Conditionally](https://support.tuiopay.com/how-to-show-form-questions-conditionally?hsLang=en).

### Current Available fields panel

The Available fields panel groups profile fields and form-specific questions separately.

### Choose a custom field type

When creating a Parent, Student or Enrollment field, the field types appear in one alphabetical grid. **Content** and **Heading** are included in that grid and display information rather than collecting a response.

### Form-specific question types

In **Available fields**, select **Form custom fields** to choose a question that belongs only to this form.
