Form field element not to bind for post

As per inertia guide all form fields are bind to form

In my code below:

const form = useForm({
category_id:"",
  q_0: "",
  q_1: "",
  q_2: "",
  q_3: "",
  q_4_0: "",
  q_4: "",
  q_5: ""
});

function down_payment(event,id){
  if(id==0) // Percentage
  form.q_4=(((event.target.value)*props.q3) / 100).toFixed(0);
  else
  form.q_4_0=(((event.target.value)/props.q3) * 100).toFixed(0);
}

I want form.q_4_0 not to be saveable into database

Well, you could always just not include it in the form object you're sending to the server. That way, it won't be saved in the database. Or, if you want to be extra sure, you could wrap it in a try/catch block and make sure it never gets sent.

try {
  // Don't send form.q_4_0
} catch (e) {
  // Do nothing
}
