-It is still to decide if the best way of storing forms is a relational database or better a document based database, like MongoDB. Forms are constantly changing (=updated), a common problem in usual software products is that if newer forms are available and updated, the older forms are not accessible any more.

+It is still to decide if the best way of storing forms is a relational database or better a document based database, like MongoDB. Forms are constantly changing (=updated), a common problem in usual software products is that if newer forms are available and updated, the older forms are not accessible any more. So forms must be versioned as well.
+==== Storage ====
+[[http://www.freemedforms|FreeMedForms]] or the newer [[https://www.freehealth.io|FreeHealth]] have a way to automatically save forms from an xml file (should be ported to JSON) into a MYSQL database. This is interesting. But I still think that a Document based database would be the better way to store such data.
+==== Structure ====
+The forms module should provide a central API for creating forms, e.g.
+  * prepscriptions
+  * confirmations, attestations
+  * reports to the health office (reporting of infectuous diseases, vaccination damages, etc.)
+  * disability to work
+  * death notice
+Form fields:
+  * UID
+  * Description (e.g. referral xray)
+  * group (general, referrals)
+  * printer (where to print out) - //uh-oh: maybe don't define this here?//
+    * paper tray
+    * paper format (A4, A5, prescription, etc)
+    * orientation (portrait, landscape)
+    * confirmation dialog to print? (bool) (wait for paper input)
+    * resolution (dpi)
+    * preview? (bool)
+    * pause after each page? (bool)
+    *
