    Is there a way to create a "lookup only" form? My use case would be to be able to scan a barcode and it just automatically fill the information (push to other fields) on the form that I am providing via the datasource. I already know how to do all this part.. my main question is can you have a form that DOES NOT submit anything? I just want the user to be able to query the datasource and show the results. That's all the form needs to do.

    Hey Cliff,

    Thats a great question! The short answer is yes you can but my follow-up question would be what is the use case for this? Why do the techs need to query the data source from a form they would not be submitting? Why not have them query the data source from within a form they would be submitting?

    They need to just do a lookup on a tote and see its current status and contents. This is one form in a much larger multi-form process I am implementing which allows our technicians to interact with our backend ERP system. Can you please provide me with instructions on how to implement this ASAP.

    Thank you.

    Hi Cliff,

    You mentioned in your original post that you already knew how to do this so I'm a little confused as to what you're asking for help on? Since this is a multi-form workflow I would suggest that you discuss this use case with your CSM live on a call. I'll have your CSM reach out to coordinate that discussion. :)
