Unmapped form fields can capture data that, while not necessarily essential in the context of the person record, may help you accomplish a business process.
For example, you might ask on an inquiry form whether a student wants a viewbook mailed to them. To do this, we can add an option button form field to our inquiry form.
In the popup for the form field, configure the following settings:
Status: Active
Type: Select a compatible format type for your question
Label: Displays as the instruction for your question
System Field: Leave blank
Export Key: Provide an export key that will be associated with your question. Always use lowercase and no spaces when making an export key. Export keys should also feature at least one letter, so that Slate interprets these as strings rather than numbers.
Prompts: Add each possible prompt option that the prospective student may select. Each prompt must be on a separate line.
Select Save. This form field appears on your form:
