Hello,
I have a requirement to provide an ability to create a list item that would, among other things, have some kind of table that a user could add additional rows to. This is for a Purchase Request system where they would have a number of items (an unknown number) that would need to be listed in the custom list form. Since the number of items is unknown, I would present them with a certain number of rows in the table by default (say 50 with column for description, quantity, unity price, etc) and then should the user need more rows because they are requesting to purchase more items, there's an ability to do so.
I'm trying to avoid doing this in Infopath where I could use a repeating table. I'd like to keep it in a customized .aspx form using SPD2013. I'd also like to be able to do some rudimentary calculations such as totaling the amount of the number of items in each row.
I had thought that I would be able to embed an excel web part into the customized form but that doesn't seem to be straight forward. It may not be the correct course of action to resolve this requirement. Can someone provide me with guidance/or a demonstration of how this might be accomplished? Thanks.
