    We've been using JotForms for about two years to help run our business. We use it in many ways, mostly internally to create simple, uniform processes.

    One field we have to add to most forms is Branches. I have a list I pull up and copy/paste in when creating the forms. The issue is that when we add a new branch, I have to track down every instance of the Branches and update it.

    Having access to a single instance that can be used on any form would be a huge time saver for form creation and maintenance.

    Am I missing any tools or tricks that could make this easier?

    Hi David,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. I understand that you want to create areusable form field that can be used in various forms and managed centrally.

    While the feature you're looking for isn't available at Jotform right now, we've gone ahead and escalated your request to our developers. Exactly when or if it's developed depends on their workload, how viable it is, and how many other users also request it. If there are any updates, we’ll circle back to this thread and let you know.

    Thanks for your patience and understanding, we appreciate it.
