The invention discloses a system and method for achieving general data form inputting through configuration files. The system comprises a general engine component for reading all the configuration files and finishing form interface display and data inputting and submitting according to the contents described by the read configuration files; the configuration files comprise structure description files for describing various structure attributes of forms. The method includes the steps that S1, the structure description files for describing various structure attributes of the forms are created; S2, the general engine component is started, all the configuration files including the structure description files are read, and form interface display and data inputting, verifying and submitting are finished according to the contents described by all the read configuration files, so that for different forms, no programming is needed for programmers, general inputting can be achieved just by modifying the related configuration files simply, and meanwhile, better user experience can be achieved as well.
