Make it easier to add fields on Follow Up Forms in Reports!
Since we can't assign a grantee the same follow up form multiple times in one request, we have copied our Follow Up Forms to have a number of same forms in one process. It works great, but then when we go to reports, we are notified that report fields cannot have the same name. SO, we either have to change the names of all the fields in the actual process, or rename every field when we're in the reports section. Could there be an easier way to this?
Ideally, it would be nice to be able to assign a grantee the same follow up form multiple times, but if we keep it the way it is, please allow similar names to pull a report or have the system rename the questions automatically!
Thanks!

In reports you can "combine" the identically named report fields into one - instead of "renaming" them - and that reduces the number of steps involved. I agree that it might be nice if the system would automatically rename them - such as adding a (1), (2), (3), etc after each succeeding iteration. But I believe I've found it helpful to have the identical fields in the same column, so the lack of automatic renaming hasn't bothered me to date.
