Select one from the list of existing datasets or create a new one for this specific relation, as described in chapter Creating a new dataset.
Creating a new dataset
If no existing dataset applies to the relation you are just creating, you can create a new dataset. It will be used in this relation only.
In field Dataset, select the value Create a new dataset after saving the relation. Fill out the rest of the dialog as usual. Click Add relation.
A dialog to create a dataset is then displayed. A dataset is a set of personal details that will be registered for this case.
Click Add personal detail.
A dialog Add personal data definition is displayed. Select the type of data to register – one of the Basic data or Contact information categories. In Purpose, select one or more purposes of processing the detail from the list. Click Save to confirm the settings.
To add another detail, click Add personal detail again and repeat the procedure.
When all the required details are listed in the dataset, click Finish. FormFlow will create both the relation and the dataset and the personal details included in the dataset will be marked with a green checkmark in the contact detail. This is not necessary, if the values are already entered and a dataset created for them. In that case, the values are automatically assigned and marked with a green checkmark.
