Auto-Create Multiple Field Group Items

When an Admin sets up a template field using the Workflow field and assigns it the value “Create multiple items”, the system can automatically generate a specific number of items based on what the user enters. Please note there's a limit of 20 items.

🧑‍💼 Admin Configuration

  • 🔧 Create a new template and add a new field or revise an existing template field.
  • ⚙️ Set the Workflow field: "Create multiple items"
  • 🗂️ Field Group: Define where new items will be added (e.g., Repair Items)

👤 User Experience: Triggering Auto-Creation

1️⃣ 🧮 Input Selection

The user interacts with the configured field and either:

  • ✏️ Enters an integer value, or
  • 🔘 Selects an option with an associated integer value.

2️⃣ 🚨 Trigger Activation

Once the integer value is detected, a confirmation modal appears with this message:

For example: “Add 4 Multiple Array Items will be added to that group and each item can then be individually opened and edited below"

3️⃣ 🧭 User Choice

The user is given two options:

  • Add Items
    → Starts the item creation process.
  • Cancel
    → Stops the process. This is useful if the user temporarily selected the trigger value and changed it back, preventing duplicate items.
     

4️⃣ ⚙️ Item Creation Process

If the user chooses Add Items:

  • ⏳ A spinner shows that the system is creating the items.
  • 📥 Items are automatically added to the defined item list.

📝 Note: The screen does not auto-scroll to the item list. The user stays on the current view and can continue where they left off.
