Lightning Forms is a SharePoint list form designer tool. You can transform a basic SharePoint list form into a well-laid out business form incorporating your business logic using Lightning Forms. Examples of forms that can be created include Expense Reporting, Asset Registration, Travel Request, and Purchase Orders. You can create any type of form that you like using Lightning Forms. Once you have created your SharePoint list, and defined the columns within your List, you are ready to build your custom forms.
