How to Create and Use a Compound Input Type

Compound Input Type allows administrators to collect structured and repeatable data within a single form by grouping multiple questions into a reusable component. This feature is especially useful when employees need to record multiple entries of similar information, such as channels, assets, employees, working locations, or custom database records. Compound Input Types can also be reused across different forms, helping maintain consistency while reducing repetitive configuration efforts. In this guide, you'll learn how Compound Input Types support more scalable and organized form design.

By using Compound Input Types, administrators can create more flexible forms that accommodate complex data collection scenarios while keeping the employee experience clear and structured. Compound configurations can include predefined datasets, additional informational attributes, and nested compound structures within supported limits. Once published, Compound Input Types become reusable building blocks that can be integrated into Form Templates, helping organizations standardize data collection and improve reporting quality across operational activities.
