The <form> tag is a widget displaying a record form when necessary parameters (such as the table, form view, and record ID) are specified. It allows users to interact with the record form, while maintaining the form reaction. It also supports the functionality of widgets added to the form.

This widget generally has the following structure:
The embedded widget that contains the form elements.
The header block:
A header can be taken from the column with theDisplay by Refcheckbox selected.
The section block:
The Default section should be the first in the section list if there is more than one.
Every widget section is linked to the corresponding form sectionand has its own title.
This block is mandatory.
The footer block that contains UI actions (buttons and others).
Elements
Form widget elements, like form elements, can be ofdifferent types. Functionality of all field types used in forms is supported in the widgets (such as properties, behavior, scalar type, and so on).
If a widget element displays date and time, it is displays them in the user timezone.
The widget elements containing multilanguage fields and use the Translated Text field type (such as table and column titles, choice options) display the values in the current user locale.
