This option allows you to create a specific data form separated from the main record form. You can use it to save secondary data like analysis results. If you want to use the analysis tab, you have to define custom fields and save them under the analysis tab option (microscope icon ).

Custom fields are presented in the module by creation order. All fields can receive preset values (field masks).
