Question

What is a form ?Also, list it's features.

Answer 1

Answer:

A form is a document with spaces (also named fields or placeholders) in which to write or select, for a series of documents with similar contents. The documents usually have the printed parts in common, except, possibly, for a serial number.

Its features are:

1. One has to write less (while the printing is almost universally done in some automatic way).
2. One is told or reminded what information has to be supplied.
3. There is uniformity, for convenience in processing.
4. Information is collected in writing and so can be reexamined later (the form can also include a signature field to allow someone to take responsibility for the accuracy of the information provided).
5. Simpler tasks, such as collecting or distributing data, can be separated in the workflow from more skilled processes, such as making decisions. Issuing and processing the forms may then be done by less skilled staff, or by a computer.
6. The de-skilled task becomes issuing or completing the appropriate form for the circumstances, and then passing it on to the next step in the workflow. This might reduce costs and increase the volume of work that can be handled.
7. A form on a computer allows for conveniently typing in the variable parts (the input data).
