{{note|
* After creating Data Entry Form templates in IMSMA<sup>NG</sup>, it is recommended to use another application to build the same forms for handwritten data collection in the field. The templates are built to accommodate typewritten data which requires less space than handwritten data. Using templates to record data in the field may impose limitations on the amount or extent of information collected.
* When a general layout and design is determined for a programme’s Data Entry Form templates, it is a good idea to save an .FFML file to the file system so it can be used as the basis for designing the rest of the programme’s templates. This should be done prior to adding item-specific data to the template}}
{{note| To add, change, deactivate, or publish a Data Entry Form template, you must have access to the Form Template Design permission.}}
Data Entry Form templates are the data entry forms that are available from the Data Entry Form Template Selection window and are what you use to add a Data Entry Form to IMSMA. IMSMA includes default form templates for accident and victim, land, activity, location, education, and QM. If the default form templates do not include the information you need on the Data Entry Form or are in a format that is different from what you need, you can create and publish a new Data Entry Form template.
