I have a requirement where I need to customize the customer doctype add form as per client requirement. This involve hiding many fields, reordering some and adding few fields from a custom doctype.
-
I am aware customization to core doctypes are limited and core fields can’t be changed for valid reasons.
-
Creating custom fields for many fields I want to change and copying value seems inefficient.
I was wondering about the possibility of creating a new custom form within desk for the user to add data. This form can have fields as per clients liking and can then submit data to the customer doc type.
I was trying to understand:
-
If this approach has any downside.
-
Can we use webform within desk and get this done?
-
Can a single doctype have multiple form displays?
