Systems and methods for data entry

A device for form data collection, comprising:

• a processor;
• a memory in communication with the processor;
• a display screen;
• a form content analyzer to analyze data specifying a plurality of fields for collecting input data from a user of the device and to identify one or more logical field groups into which the plurality of fields can be organized;
• a form field organizer to associate, on the device, each field of the plurality of fields with a grouping selected from among one or more groupings corresponding to the one or more logical field groups and defined within the memory of the computing device, wherein the grouping specifies an ordering of all fields assigned to the grouping;
• a rendering engine configured to present in series, one at time, on the display screen, each of the fields assigned to each grouping of the one or more groupings, the presenting according to the ordering specified in each grouping;
• and
• a form data collector to collect input data entered using the plurality of fields during a data entry session and to incorporate the input data into form data for the data entry session.

A computer-readable medium having stored thereon instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:

• obtaining on the computing device data specifying a plurality of fields into which input data can be entered to provide that input data to the computing device;
• associating on the computing device each field of the plurality of fields to a field group defined within the computing device, wherein the field group specifies an ordering of all fields assigned to the field group;
• presenting in series, one at a time, on a display screen of the computing device, each of the fields assigned to the field group, wherein the presenting is according to the ordering specified in the field group;
• receiving input data entered into each field of the plurality of fields during a data entry session to incorporate the input data into form data corresponding to the data entry session;
• and
• making the form data accessible to a third-party application.
