On the Forms tab in Table Builder, you can
visually create, configure, and customize the different form views for your users using the form
editor. The views that you define contain the elements that appear when a user opens that form or
list.

## Form View {#form-view-configuration__section_bgq_5cd_gsb}

A form view defines the elements that appear to a user when the user opens a form or list.
Each form has a default view, but you may want to create several different form views for
different groups of users.

In Table Builder, you can customize multiple views for a form for the different
users who input data or view the form. You can also customize the default form view for
everyone.

Explore the following major areas when you configure a form or list:  
* Form view selection
* All form views list
* Form layout
* Form fields
* Form annotations
* Formatters
* Embedded lists
{#form-view-configuration__ul_r2m_gbg_vrb}

## Basic form navigation {#form-view-configuration__section_fkm_kwx_3sb}

The Forms tab consists of the following four major areas:

* Top navigation menu
* Add form elements panel
* Form editor
* Configuration panel
{#form-view-configuration__ul_rxv_svl_lsb}  
The following table contains a list of some of the other basic navigational elements within the Forms tab in Table Builder.{#form-view-configuration__table_bwb_2cf_jsb__entry__2}

## Form view selection {#form-view-configuration__section_i45_pq2_xrb}

Select a form view to work with from the form view list in the form editor.  
Nota:  
You can also select a form view from the Additional actions menu on the Forms tab.

## All form views list {#form-view-configuration__section_y1f_vxh_1vb}

Select All form views from the Additional
actions menu to the right of the Forms tab to browse a filterable list of
form view cards (vertical ellipsis). This page allows you to create complex filtering and
sorting if you have a great deal of form views to navigate.  
You have the following options for finding a desired form view if you have a large list of them.{#form-view-configuration__table_zkp_3zn_15b__entry__2}

| Option | Steps |
|-|-|

## Form layout (sections) {#form-view-configuration__section_mct_h1l_5rb}

A view is composed of sections that group the data elements that you want displayed.

You can add multiple sections and change the layout of each section into one or two columns. A
section is where you can group the data elements that you want to display for a form view. These
elements include form fields, annotations, formatters, and embedded lists.

See [Customize your form layout in Table Builder](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/mGk026SZ~1FJtnEa_pS5_g "Visually design the look of the forms your users see by customizing form views in Table Builder.").

## Form fields {#form-view-configuration__section_fwh_k1l_5rb}

When you select a table in Table Builder, the available fields are displayed in
the form elements panel. You can create fields for the table or configure the fields and their
properties.

By dragging these fields into the form editor, you can then visually arrange these fields on
the form view you have selected.

See [Add fields to a form layout in Table Builder](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/uW2kYEHFuO~2pJcV1VGazg "Visually add and arrange fields within a form layout to create a form that matches your requirements using Table Builder.").

See [Modify field properties in Table Builder form editor](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/dyLJKbKwzvrEJ6pekSfBkQ "Modify basic field properties for the fields that display for users in a form view from within the Forms tab in Table Builder.").

## Form annotations {#form-view-configuration__section_wbk_n1l_5rb}

A form annotation is an additional piece of information on a form, such as a line or paragraph
of text.

For example, you may want to add instructional text for a particular section on the form. By
using Table Builder, you can add a form annotation to the view that displays
on-screen instructions on how a user should enter information.

See [Create form annotations in Table Builder](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/Bv2z4HWN6PqrrRspDiOAnA "Add instructional text and other design elements to your forms by using form annotations in Table Builder.").

## Formatters {#form-view-configuration__section_idm_p1l_5rb}

A Formatter is a read-only element in a form that displays additional information about the selected table record. Unlike fields, formatters are not editable.

See [Using formatters](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=c_Formatters&version=australia&pubname=australia-platform-administration&ft:locale=en-US).

By using Table Builder, you can visually drag any of the displayed formatters
onto the form editor and arrange them.

See [Add formatters in Table Builder](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/YJbKqFvQNHPRF66z3kwXVA "You can add form elements that display non-field information to users by adding a formatter in Table Builder. For example, you may want to display a Comments field where users can add comments to a displayed form.").

## Embedded lists {#form-view-configuration__section_bkr_q1l_5rb}

You can use an embedded list to display the data for a selected related list on a form. A
related list shows the records in the tables that have relationships to the current record. For
example, for a form view that references a Problem table, you might want to display a list of
locations that are impacted by a selected problem.

With Table Builder, you can visually drag a list from the Embedded Lists tab of the form elements panel onto the form editor, and then arrange
them.

By adding an embedded list to a form, you enable your users to view or edit the related list
without needing to navigate away from the form. Changes to the data in the list are saved when
the user saves the form.

See [Add embedded lists in Table Builder](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/eCM4O_L_f36RRvkmsBjOAw "Add an embedded list using Table Builder to display data for a selected related list on your form. A related list shows the records in the tables that have relationships to the current record. For example, for a form view that references a Problem table, you might want to display a list of locations that are impacted by a selected problem.").
