Creating sendable forms in Bookem

Bookem offers three types of customisable online forms: Sendable, Booking, and Note Forms.

This article covers Sendable forms, which are typically used for new client Intake forms, consent forms, questionnaires, and surveys.

Before we talk about Sendable Forms, let's talk about Fields.

Types of Fields

You can include two types of fields in a Sendable form:

  1. Fields stored only on the form: These fields don't get stored on the client profile but are automatically filled in when the form is submitted. They're useful for details you don't often need, like indemnity clauses or client signatures.

  2. Fields that merge with a client's information on their profile: These fields are stored in the client profile and are automatically filled in when the form is submitted. They're useful for details you need to refer to often. For instance, if a client fills in their medical aid details, these can automatically appear on an invoice.
