Abstract

A card creation method and system includes defining a data entry screen including a plurality of screen fields and creating at least one card layout, including defining specific positions for a plurality of card fields. Data is input into the screen fields using the data entry screen, and then transferred to a one of the card layouts to create the card. The data entry screen definition and the card layouts may be saved prior to inputting data. Still further, a data source having at least one data field may be identified for providing data, and a screen field may be linked to a data field. Data from the data field is copied to the linked screen field. Additionally, a card filed may be linked to a selected screen field. The created card may be saved and/or printed. Thus, a user is able to create customized data entry screens, as well as custom card designs.
