Record Name

Apricot 7.6 Introduces a new capability in Apricot to configure which field you'd like to use as the identifier for records of any form. 

In the past, the identifier for each record would automatically be set to the first name field found on the form, or if there was no name field present, the first text field found on the form. 

Now, you have the ability to choose what the identifying field will be for every form in Apricot.

  • Record name field is now a requirement in form designer.

  • The Record Name will determine what is displayed in the upper left hand corner of each document folder for each record of the form:

  • The Record Name will also determine what is displayed when linking to records of this form, and what is displayed as the Identifier Field when pulling in the form's record ID column into a report and selecting the data style "With Identifier Field(s)"

  • Finally, the Record Name controls what is displayed in the Print Modal for tier 2 Records:
