Using Axiom forms in the Web Client

Axiom files, such as plan files and reports, can be web-enabled so that you can access them in the Axiom Web Client. Web-enabled files are known as Axiom forms. Using Axiom forms, you can view reporting data and make planning inputs using an HTML5 web page instead of a spreadsheet.

When using Axiom forms, you may have access to various features in the Web Client container, such as the ability to filter data or comment on the current form. The Web Client container is enabled on a per form basis, so you may not see it on all (or any) of your forms. If the container is not enabled for a particular form, then the features in the container are not available while you are working with that form.

The contents of the form itself and what you can do with it is entirely up to the form designer. Forms can be used for many different purposes—from basic reports and input forms, to complex dashboards and plans with rich interactivity. Ideally the form should include embedded instructions as needed, so that the purpose of the form and what you can do with it is clear. If you have any questions about a form, you should contact the designated contact person for the form (if provided) or contact your system administrator.

NOTE: Axiom forms are designed in the Axiom Desktop Client (Excel Client or Windows Client). The Web Client only supports viewing and interacting with existing forms; new forms cannot be designed in the Web Client environment. For more information on designing forms, see Axiom forms (in the Desktop Client Help).
