| Name | Description | ||||||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

UI Properties
Figure 3 : UI Properties
Figure 4 : Show Row Numbering
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Enable Header Sorting? | Determines if users can sort spreadsheet data by column in ascending or descending order (See Figure 3). |
| Data Order Field ID | Field Id to store the ordering sequence of spreadsheet row. The property field "Data Order Field ID" stores the form grid record row sequence, meaning it records which ID sits in row 1, row 2, and so on and rearranges it back in this same ascending sequence on load binder. If you are using this property, key in a unique field ID in "Data Order Field ID" property . This field ID must *not* be an existing field in your form which you use for your form data. Typically we use the field ID "sort" and Joget will automatically create this column in your database table (Do not use the field ID "sort" anywhere else in your form). If you need automatic sorting on another column value on loading the form grid/spreadsheet, use Load Grid Data with Custom Sorting and Filtering or JDBC Form Binder with the "... ORDER BY ASC" SQL statement. |
| Grid: Readonly | Defines if the entire spreadsheet is editable. |
| Disable Add Feature | Determines if a new row can be added. |
| Disable Delete Feature | Determines if a row can be removed. |
| Show Row Numbering? | Add a new leftmost column to display the row numbers starting from 1 (See Figure 4). |
| Number of columns to fixed on left | Allows to specify the number of fixed (or frozen) columns on the left of the table. Default Value: 0 |
| Number of spare rows | Number of spare row to be added automatically after lines with values (See Figure 4). |
| Max height | Maximum height of the spreadsheet to keep the bottom scrollbar within the browser view, for example "60vh". |
| Custom Settings (JSON) | Refer to plugins and APIs from https://handsontable.com/docs/6.2.2/tutorial-introduction.html for more customization options. Example: {
selectionMode: 'single'
}

Validation & Data Binder Properties
Figure 5 : Validation & Data Binder properties
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Validator | Attach a Validator plugin to validate the input value. Please see Form Validator. When will validation takes place? Validation will takes place whenever form is submitted except when it is submitted as "Save as Draft". |
| Min Number of Row Validation (Integer) | Defines the minimum number of visible rows required to save the form. Use Regular Expression or Grid Field Basic Validator to prevent saving empty rows. |
| Max Number of Row Validation (Integer) | Defines the maximum number of visible rows required to save the form.Use Regular Expression or Grid Field Basic Validator to prevent saving empty rows. |
| Error Message | Error message to be shown when row requirements set above is not met. |
| Data Binder | |
| Load & Save Binders | Load Binder allows you to customize the method for data retrieval to populate the multi-row spreadsheet in the form. Save Binder allows you to customize the method on how the spreadsheet row records are saved to. This option is empty by default. An empty binder means that the spreadsheet records will be saved/loaded as a JSON format in the parent form & database table. See the list of available Form Binders. The recommended binder to use is the Multirow Form Binder so that each record is saved into a child database table via a subform definition. The binder will update the foreign key "parent id" into each child record to point to the parent database table. |

Special Function
FORMDATA(formDefId, primaryKey, fieldName) in Spreadsheet "Formula" column.
where:
- formDefId: The form id of the source form containing the setup data to 'pull' from.
- primaryKey: The dependent pulldown field id in your spreadsheet design, that provides the WHERE condition to search the data to populate.
- fieldName: The field id of the source form to populate in this spreadsheet column based on the above 'primaryKey' value.
Use this function to 'pull' and populate a spreadsheet cell based on available data in other forms.
For example, to make spreadsheet pull and display the population value after the user picks the city name (pulldown menu), use FORMDATA("city_formId",select_city,"population") where 'select_city' is the first field id in your spreadsheet.
