## Introduction

The Summary Page tab of the Form Settings dialog allows you to configure the visibility of form metadata columns on the [Summary page](https://doc.orbeon.com/form-runner/form-runner-pages/summary-page). This provides a per-form alternative to using global [properties](https://doc.orbeon.com/configuration/properties/form-runner/form-runner-summary-page), and adds the ability to restrict column visibility by user role.

The following form metadata columns can be configured:

| Metadata column  | Related property                                                                                                                                                          |

## Display options

For each metadata column, you can choose one of the following options:

* **Use property** (default): the column's visibility is determined by the corresponding global property.
* **Show**: the column is always shown on the Summary page (subject to an optional role restriction, see below).
* **Hide**: the column is never shown on the Summary page.

## Role restriction

When "Show" is selected for a metadata column, a "Restrict to role" checkbox appears. When checked, an input field allows you to enter a role name. You can add multiple roles by using the "+" button.

When two or more roles are specified, a dropdown allows you to choose between:

* **All**: all specified roles must be present for the column to be shown.
* **Any**: at least one of the specified roles must be present for the column to be shown.

This is the same mechanism as the [role restriction in the Control Settings dialog](https://doc.orbeon.com/form-editor/control-settings#basic-options).

## Interaction with properties

The form-level settings in this tab take precedence over the corresponding global properties. If a metadata column is set to "Use property" (the default), the global property is used as a fallback.
