A Subform in Zoho Creator is a repeating section embedded within a parent form that captures multiple rows of related data in a single submission. Each row in the Subform is its own mini-record with its own set of fields. This is the standard approach for line-item data: an order form contains a Subform for order items, where each row has product name, quantity, and unit price fields.<\/p>\n
The Subform fields are configured independently from the parent form fields. Builders add the relevant field types to the Subform columns. Formula fields within the Subform can calculate row-level values such as line totals. The parent form can then reference Subform aggregate data using rollup formula fields, such as summing all line totals to produce an order total.<\/p>\n
Subform records are stored as child records linked to the parent. Reports can be built to display Subform data, and Deluge scripts can fetch and iterate over a record’s Subform rows using the standard fetch records pattern. This makes Subforms central to any Creator application that handles multi-item transactions, project tasks lists, material checklists, or other structured repeating data.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
