# Sub Form Logs: Projects, Customers, Vendors, Equipment, Board Cards

## 📘 **Sub Form Logs: Projects, Customers, Vendors, Equipment, Board Cards Overview**  
 

While the **Master Form Log** gives a global view of all submitted forms, Ontraccr also offers **sub form logs** within specific areas of the platform. These are **pre-filtered** logs that show forms **only related to the item you're viewing**, such as a specific project, customer, vendor, equipment, or board card.

## 🧭 **Where Sub Form Logs Appear**

| Context | Tabs Containing Form Logs |
| --- | --- |
| **Projects** | Payables, Billing, Work Orders, Changes, Other Forms |
| **Customers** | Payables, Billing, Work Orders, Other Forms |
| **Vendors** | Payables, Billing, Subcontracts, Other Forms |
| **Equipment** | Forms tab |
| **Board Cards** | Forms tab (if form was submitted from that card) |

## 🔍 **How Sub Logs Differ from the Master Log**

| Feature | Master Log | Sub Log |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Scope | All company forms | Only forms linked to the specific entity |
| Filtered by default | ❌ No (manual filtering needed) | ✅ Yes (automatically filtered) |
| Filter options | Full filter panel | Same filters available, scoped to the context |
| Access to form actions/details | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes (same detail view, timeline, etc.) |

## 📂 **What Each Sub Log Tab Contains**

### In Projects:

-   **Payables** → Invoices and Purchase Orders only
-   **Billing** → Receivable Invoices only
-   **Work Orders** → Work order–type forms
-   **Changes** → Change order–type forms
-   **Other Forms** → All other form types tied to the project

### In Customers/Vendors:

-   Tabs show only forms tied to that customer or vendor
-   Categorized into Payables, Billing, Work Orders, etc., just like in Projects

### In Equipment:

-   Forms tied to the specific equipment profile
-   Only visible if a form was tagged with that equipment

### In Board Cards:

-   Only forms submitted **from that card** appear in this tab
-   If a form wasn’t submitted through the card, it won’t show here

## ✅ **Benefits of Sub Form Logs**

-   **Immediate context** — see only relevant forms for a specific project, client, or vendor
-   **No manual filtering required**
-   **Centralized recordkeeping** — lets companies skip manually attaching documents to profiles

🧠 Tip: As long as the form includes a **“Choose one or more”** dropdown for project, customer, vendor, or equipment, Ontraccr **auto-saves** the form under that profile’s log.
