If you wish to start a Form, please refer to the steps outlined below.

What is a Form?

A Form is a document used to collect and record information. It can be used for various purposes such as Supplier / Contractor onboarding, permits, and other types of documentation.

Forms can have multiple sections to be reviewed by different departments or for review in the Live Access application. The process of managing Forms involves reviewing, updating, and exporting them as necessary with all changes and reviews tracked in the form record.

Staff Users can start a Form by default. No permissions are required for this.
