- `Consultation category`: allow to group consultations
- `Consultation landing page`: holds categories and consultation

Reports

[](#reports)

Consultations can display "reports", a graphic way of displaying data from the form submission. Reports can only be based on EditableMultipleOptionField (e.g DropdownField, RadioField...). To create a report, on a `Consultation` page , head to the `Report` tab, create a new report with a title, save, then choose a field to base the report on.

### Report Types

Out-of -the-box, you can display report as a doughnut chart (powered by [Chart.js](http://www.chartjs.org/ "Chart.js")You can create new report type by extending `ConsultationReportType` and implementing:

```
function render($controller, $data) {}

```

Comments
--------

[](#comments)

Comments can include any field from the consultation form. To include a field in a comment, simply tick the option `include in comment` when creating the field.
