Abstract

Historical form input field usage information of a group of input fields associated with a graphical user interface (GUI) form is analyzed. A subset of the group of input fields with higher usage characteristics relative to another subset of the group of input fields is automatically partitioned into a new form within a new tabbed portion of the displayed GUI form. The new form includes a set of selectable options that allow a user to select between reorganizing the subset of the input fields according to historical input field usage analysis of the user and reorganizing the subset of the plurality of input fields according to historical input field usage analysis of a group of form users within which the user is a member. The subset of the input fields within the new form is reorganized responsive to different user selections among the set of selectable options.
