This section enables you to create your Form Statuses and effectively set up a workflow to control the flow of information and the approval of Forms.

Every iTWOcx form has a status which you can use to track and report progress of that form through a workflow. Depending on the Type of status that is used the form will behave in different ways.

There are 5 default status types.

Image Removed Draft - Only visible to the person who created the form.

Image Removed Open - Used for the active part of a workflow. Any form in an open status is tracked by the system and will appear in the Hotlist of the action person.

Image Removed Closed - Used for the Workflow end. When a form moved to closed status it will be removed from the action person's Hotlist.

Image Removed Cancelled - Used to remove a Draft Form.

Image Removed Initiated - Optional interim status that a Form sits in between being issued and opened by the action person. Good for starting the workflow as soon as the form is viewed.

We provided default names for each of the Status types but you can rename them to suit your organisation.

For example:

Image Removed To Do - Open

Image Removed In Progress - Open

Image Removed Done - Closed

Image Removed Accepted - Closed
