julisp yes you can have multiple forms on the same list. See the video from Reza Dorrani where he discusses this from 7:27 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NB48nG-5YHY

Hi Rob_Elliott,

 

Thank you for the link!

I watched the video but it doesn't seem to answer my question.

I need to record information on which form the entry came from. I cannot use default value for the column, because I have no way to connect it to a specific Form.

The only solution I can think of is having an extra column per Form, make it required in the form and have the users fill it with some arbitrary information - but that will create a lot of extra unnecessary columns, which is pretty extensive and will make any other List flows more complicated.
