About This Feature

Overview

Multiple Selections is a built-in configuration feature in Smart Forms on WPS Office for Mac. It is used in the Check-in module to set up and manage segmented selection content during form creation. After you save the settings, and publish a new version when needed, the updated configuration can be applied to later responses.

Core tasks include:

Open the Multiple Selections entry in the Check-in module.
Configure related settings and preview the result.
Save the configuration and confirm that it takes effect.

This feature is suitable for attendance forms, event check-ins, recurring sign-in workflows, and forms that need grouped options by date or department.

Compare with Alternatives

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	Provides a Multiple Selections entry inside the Check-in workflow of Smart Forms, where you can configure settings, preview the result, and save the setup in the editor.	Microsoft Forms supports choice questions and branching logic, so answers can route respondents to later questions or sections.	Google Forms supports multiple choice, checkboxes, dropdowns, and section routing based on answers.	Notion Forms supports multiple choice, multi-select-linked properties, and conditional logic connected to databases.	Adobe Acrobat Sign supports public web forms with participant flow and signature field setup, with a stronger focus on signing and submission workflows.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: The Multiple Selections entry is built directly into the Check-in configuration flow, which helps you finish setup, preview, and saving in one editing interface.	Compared with WPS: It focuses more on general survey branching, so a check-in workflow usually needs to be assembled from question logic.	Compared with WPS: It works well for general-purpose forms and section routing, but it offers fewer check-in-specific configuration cues.	Compared with WPS: Database integration is flexible, but conditional logic is limited to Business and Enterprise plans.	Compared with WPS: It is oriented more toward signing-focused web forms than check-in configuration.

Overall Conclusion
WPS Multiple Selections is more closely aligned with a check-in setup workflow inside Smart Forms, which makes it practical for users who want to configure options in one editor. Microsoft, Google, and Notion are stronger as general-purpose form builders, while Adobe is more suitable for signing-oriented web form scenarios.
