Troubleshoot the Form Designer module:
Some column types cannot be included in a form
If I get an error message saying,
"The list that I selected requires columns that cannot be included on a form"
then one or more of the following column types has been marked as a required column in my list:
- Person or Group
- Calculated
- What's New Field.
The above column types cannot be included in a form.
If the above columns are included in my list and are not marked as required columns
then the Form Designer module auto-omits them.
If they are marked as required columns
then the Form Designer module is unable to create a form for that list.
To mark a column as not required:
On the left navigation bar,
- Click Business Apps,
- Click the name of the app containing the list that I want to modify.
- Click the tab containing the list, and then, on the actions bar, click Settings.
On the Customize page, in the Columns section, click the name of the column that I want to modify.
Note: If I am unsure which column to modify, look for the column types:
- Person or Group,
- Calculated, or
- What's New Field.
See if the above column types have a check mark under 'Required'.
Below the text 'Require' that this column contains information,
Select No,
Click OK.
