Forms

As you've seen, forms are where data is displayed in ServiceNow, but you wouldn't want to display every single field in your table to all of your users! For this reason, forms have views that limit which fields are shown, and to whom.

Form views can be configured, or personalized, split into sections, and can contain and display all manner of different kinds of data. Data can be made to be displayed, made read-only, or made editable in forms based on various conditions that we'll discuss in Chapter 6, UI and Data Policies. In this section, we'll briefly go over how to configure and design forms, how to personalize them, and make them your own, and how to configure form sections and related lists. More details on the specific components that'll show up in forms will be covered in later chapters.
