Using Trackers, you can create forms for collecting data and make reports from that data. Trackers can combine structured information collected from users. The Trackers feature is a powerful, flexible tool. Originally, trackers were used to collect and manage bugs in Tikiwiki. They evolved into an open ended system where you can track any kind of user input in a customizable form. Each tracker has its own mini database. Users with the appropriate permissions can devise trackers to collect any kind of information that you want.
What can Trackers be used for?
