How can I make a form with a dynamic dropdown that allows multiple entries in one form?

I need to create a monthly inventory stock form to be able to track stock. A dynamic dropdown works best however, how do I make it to where the user can select multiple options rather than selecting one option and submitting and then having to enter another option on a separate entry.

For example, if they select accessories from the drop down, a list of accessories to pick from populates, then they get the option to enter quantity. However, if they have more items to report on that same page, perhaps they have apparel items, how do I add this feature so that they can report multiple items all within that same form?

in this screenshot, i need to submit if i need to report more items since it wont "save" or register more than one entry.

Hi Berenis,

Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. I’ll need a bit of time to look into this. I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.

Hi Berenis,

You can add a Configurable list to your form to get dropdown fields and a number field. Let me show you how.

1. On Form Builder, click on Add Form Element, click on Widgets, then add Configurable List widget to your form.
   
   
2. Select the Configurable List field and click on the Wand icon.
   
   
3. Under Fields Configuration, enter the text below, then click Update Widget.

Category : dropdown : Accessories, Apparel : Please Select

Item : dropdown : Bracelet, Stickers : Please Select

Number:

This should give you 2 dropdown fields and a number field, with the option to add another row.

If that’s not exactly what you’re looking for, can you explain a bit more so I can help you better?

Once we hear back from you, we'll be able to help you with this.

Thank you! how can i make the form configured to do the below. if they select more than one item from the items drop down, i would like the quantity box to appear for each item. currently, my form only has one quantity field regardless of how many items i pick

Hi Berenis,

I believe you're working on this form. If so, you can set up conditions on your form to only show certain fields if the corresponding item is selected. Take a look at the screenshot below for an example:

Let me show you how to do that:

1. In Form Builder, click on Settings in the orange navigation bar at the top part of the page.
2. Go to Conditions, and select Show/Hide Field.
3. Set the conditions, similar to the screenshot above. Do the same for the rest of the Dropdown options.
4. Click on Save. The screencast below shows how it's done:
