Hi Ryan, Yes I am able to add more than 10 fields, you can check here - http://n2.nabble.com/file/n3476857/MIFOS.jpg MIFOS.jpg
Regarding survey module I have looked over that and created one survey but could not find a way to integrate it with any loan account. Is there any tutorial or help for that.
