# Input field types

zoolo has a large number of field types that each meet different requirements.
Each individual field type is explained in more detail below.

# Text


Text fields are the most common field type and are used to enter simple texts.

TIP

Text fields automatically expand by one line as soon as Enter is pressed while entering text.

# Number


Number fields are used to enter numbers.
Decimal places are automatically formatted in the format of the team.

TIP

Prefixes and Suffixes can also be used to identify number fields.

Common examples are "%" or "hours"

# Money


Money entry fields are used to enter amounts of money.
Decimal places and currency symbols are automatically formatted in the team's format.

TIP

The chart view can be grouped according to amounts of money and numbers.

# Text editor


Text editors are used for formatted input of longer texts.
Attributes such as text thickness or text size can be set here. Lists can also be created.

# Address

Address data can be entered via address input fields and visualized via a map view. Address field The entered address is shown with a red marker in the map view. As soon as the red marker is moved, the address is adjusted in real time.

TIP

In the upper search window with a gray background, you can search for addresses and companies and select the appropriate result.
All address entries are then filled in automatically.

# Date


By entering the date, dates can be selected in a calendar view.
The date field can also be edited directly.

# Date Time

By entering the date and time, dates and times can be selected in a calendar and clock view.
The date and time field can also be edited directly.

# Time

By entering the time, times can be selected in a clock view.

# Relation


Dynamically reusable, easy links can be created using this drop-down box.
Links have a title, a color and an icon.

# Create relation

With a click on the small "+" within the link field, a new simple link can be created.

# Edit relation

A simple link can be edited with a click on the small "pencil symbol" within the selection field of the link field.
Edit link field


Via relation links, a dropdown field can be created in which a data record from another module can be selected (linked).

As soon as a relation link field is created, the module to be linked ("relation") must first be selected.
Next, at least one "Relations Name" must be selected.
Relation names are the values ​​of the fields of the relation that are displayed in the dropdown window.
If, for example, a "customer" is linked to a "company", it makes sense to select at least the company name as the relation name.

Links are the same as relation link fields, only that several elements of the linked module can be selected here (multi-selection dropdown).

# User selection

Users can be selected and linked. It can be a single or multiple selection. If necessary, selected users will be informed by email about the link to a data record.

# Slider


Sliders are simple checkboxes through which truth values​​ (true / false) can be set.
These are shown in the list view with a red X or a green tick.

# Option group


Option groups form several checkboxes through which, however, only a maximum of one value can be selected.

# Define elements

As soon as an option group is created, the selectable elements (checkboxes) must first be defined.
These are created by clicking on "Elements" in the pop-up window that appears by clicking on "+".
Several elements for German ("de") and English ("en") language can be created.

# Rating


Ratings from 0 to 5 points can be created using rating fields.
These are visualized using selectable icons.

# Inverted relations


Using inverted relations, data records can be displayed as a list that are linked to the current module via a relation (in the other module).
For example, all "employees" of a certain "company" can be displayed as a list within it.

TIP

Inverted relations should always be placed in a single tab.


Several data records from other modules can be linked to the current data record via a link list.
The principle is similar to links, only that the data sets are shown here as a separate list view.

TIP

Link lists should always be placed in a single tab.

# Icon selection

Symbols can be integrated into data records using the icon selection.
These can be used to optically separate data records.

# Color selection

Colors can be assigned to data records using the color selection.
These can be used to optically separate data records even further.

# Image

The image selection allows image files to be uploaded and linked to data records.

# Heading

Headings extend over one line and serve to visually and logically separate content within an input mask.
