Click on the “Tools” tab in your Google Sheets. From the dropdown, click “Create a new form.” This will open a new Google Form linked directly to your Google Sheet.
In the Google Form, give your form a title, such as “Data Entry Form,” and add a short description if needed. This will help clarify the purpose of the form for users.
Click the "+" button to add questions that reflect the data you want to collect, such as “Name,” “Date,” or “Product ID.” Choose the appropriate question type (short answer, multiple choice, etc.) based on the data required.
