Selecting a Primary Form

by | Mar 19, 2024

The Primary Form is the main form in a report.  If a report contains multiple forms, such as a 1004 Single Family 2005, 1007 Rent Survey, and a 216 Operating Income Statement, one form is designated as the Primary Form.

  1. You can access the Add/Remove Forms feature in three ways:
    1. Click File > Add/Remove Forms.
    2. Click the (Add/Remove Forms) icon.
    3. Press Alt+F+F on the keyboard.
  2. Select the Primary Form from the drop-down list.
  3. Click Save Report to accept changes.

Note: In most cases, selecting a form from the Forms Pool and adding it to the Current Report removes the form from the Forms Pool. This feature prevents duplicate forms in a report. Other forms are designed for replication. Multiple copies of the Extra Photo or the Extra Map pages can be added to a report.

  1. In the current opened signed report, click File > Unlock File for Editing.
  2. Click Yes to remove all signatures from the report file or click No to cancel.
