About This Feature

Overview

User Name is a configuration item in the Smart Form relay scenario in WPS Office for macOS. It is used to set the name field while creating or editing a relay form.

Core tasks include:

  • Open the User Name settings entry from the relay section in the form editor.
  • Complete the User Name setup and save it for preview, publishing, and collecting new responses.

This feature fits scenarios such as event sign-up, information registration, and team relay collection. It helps form creators manage the name field in one editing flow and continue with preview or publishing after changes are saved.

Capability SummaryIn the Smart Form relay workflow on macOS, WPS provides a User Name settings entry. You can open the relay section in the editor, configure the name field, and then continue with preview or publishing after saving.Microsoft Forms lets form owners control who can respond and, in organization scenarios, record responder names. It can also limit one response per person.Google Forms can collect respondent email addresses and manage responses with required questions and response settings.Notion Forms automatically creates a Respondent property to capture names, and it can also allow anonymous responses.Adobe Acrobat Sign web forms can require a recipient name during agreement or web form configuration and use that name in the signing flow.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: The User Name setting is part of the relay editing flow, which helps complete field setup quickly. Advantage: The same editing view supports follow-up preview and save actions without switching workflows.Compared with WPS: It focuses more on responder identity and organization access settings than on a relay-style field configuration flow.Compared with WPS: It focuses more on email collection and response management, while names are usually gathered through question design or account identity.Compared with WPS: It can capture a Respondent automatically, but form creation and customization are mainly handled in desktop and web apps, with mobile creation limitations.Compared with WPS: It is more oriented to signing and agreement web forms, where name requirements are tied to signature workflows rather than lightweight relay setup.

Overall Conclusion
