Request forms - Fillable Table

Can we please see a fillable table added to the request forms. Without it its difficult to select multiple options and select their quantities. Our company has bits of paperwork i would love to move over into a wrike request form but i can't because of the lack of a table function. Also can the forms could be put into folders for companies who may end up with quite a few request forms.

I've been looking for this exact feature in forms. I have employees that submit reprint requests for several products at a time, In a table feature they would be able to list all products, quantities, titles, etc. and be able to see everything at once. Let's add this feature!

Thanks for your feedback here guys. 

@Darren, I just want to make sure this Request from the one you commented on here. Members there would like the Request form to have a table input that maps to Custom Fields, while here you're looking for the information to show up in the task in a Table format, right? Thanks 👍

This is much needed to organize the requests since they are basically a word document which then needs to be collated into information that can be actioned. It seems that the fields are there and if multiple requests are made using the same form, it can be populated in a database - or perhaps map to populate existing Wrike tasks in a project.

We have certain users edit the custom fields to place their "order" and have used dependencies on these orders to move right into production. From the Wrike app takes seconds.

This custom field editing, though, is a workaround as the request form does not seem to correlate directly to any set tasks and we did not want to manually update and input all the data from the requests to Wrike project management.

Has anyone else tried this?

This discussion has been quiet for a little while but I'd like to chime in that it would be helpful for my team to be able to add in request form questions that are formatted as a table but that would display in the description field (NOT in the custom fields/table view). Right now we use excel documents but having the information captured directly in Wrike would help keep our users in the platform.

Another one that votes for this feature. It will be highly valuable. Any update on this?

Thanks

No updates yet I guess. This feature would cut my workflow exponentially if I could create tables for my crew to use as an invoice & expenses template after the job.

Thanks for the update Lisa - this is a disappointing outcome. Tables are an easy way to quickly enter data into the request form (and almost universally used in all engineering applications)

This would really be beneficial for our company as well.  Rather than having a bunch of short answer or paragraphs if we could use a table it would be so helpful and make more of our current forms usable.  Right now we are having to use a 3rd party app for table based forms.

Hi Wrike Team,

Smartsheets has a format like this, where a user can create a form, and that's what the majority of people would interact with, and with very little training needed. On the back end, as the requester of information, I can see the answers come in and be collated in a table.

One great example of this was when I was coordinating a meeting with people traveling in and so I needed to know when they were coming in to town, if they had their travel booked, if there were dietary restrictions I needed to provide options for, and I could organize their shirt styles and sizes easily. If I were to try to redo this type of effort in Wrike, it sounds like I would essentially end up with multiple lines in a table to represent each person's request, instead of a table that I can easily sort and filter. 

I'm currently trying to make the gathering of weekly project updates very easy, and instead of training 90 people on Wrike, just send them a form with some required fields, some dropdown options, and free text fields. From what I understand, each response will be a line that I have to manually click through and copy/paste the answers into a table.

This feature would allow us to pull more processes into Wrike and have shorter forms for our team to complete.

Hey everyone, I just wanted to give you all a quick update; this is currently not on the roadmap. Once I have an update, I'll let you know!

Thanks for the update Hugh. Again very disappointing response. 

We have internal activities in which require the listing of a part number, quantity, etc against a product. Much easier to fill out in a table or excel format and is accepted format of use. 

Have to use an attachment process to achieve outcomes which increases time and effort.

Hi there,

I'm following up on this thread. Is there anything in the roadmap for a feature like this? I've noticed that there are multiple threads for this request, dating back almost a decade without any real update on the topic.

This would make for an excellent feature that would help many companies integrate their processes into Wrike, and I'm surprised there hasn't been a real update on it. It seems like it would be something Wrike could handle since we can add tables into Project/Folder/Task Descriptions, as well as use the Table View throughout.

Hoping this could be prioritized! Thanks,

Marcos

Greetings, 

I second what Marcos Cecchetto said. Having a table on a form seems like a basic function that is missing, especially since Wrike already uses table formats to organize data for projects and tasks. For example, when we kick off a project, our project intake form has a table that includes the names of staff assigned, billable rates, projected hours, and role/scope of work. 

At the moment, the forms feature is not really useable to us because it lacks a table option.

I hope it arrives in the future! 

Best,

Phil
