About This Feature
Overview
Auto Increment Table is a built-in configuration feature in WPS Forms on Windows. It is used in vote creation workflows to set up row-based data entry, adjust related options, preview the result, and save the final layout.
Core tasks include:
- Open the Auto Increment Table entry point: enter the Forms editor, open the Vote module, and locate the related setting.
- Configure Auto Increment Table options: complete the available settings in the pop-up panel.
- Preview and confirm the result: check the display before saving.
- Edit an existing configuration: return to the editor later and adjust the setup, with some changes affecting only new data.
