You can set up Custom Forms to collect data from your sources for a variety of different purposes. You can create as many forms as necessary to collect, track, and analyze data for your organization. Each form you create must fall under one of the following functional categories, but the form naming convention is flexible. We've included some common examples for each category below: 

  • CALENDAR ITEM:  Forms classified as Calendar Items are added to your EHS-Dashboard™ Calendar. You can have many different "types" of Calendar Items such as:
    • Audits, Inspections, EHS-Task, Compliance Task, etc.

  • CORRECTIVE ACTION: Forms classified as Corrective Actions are added to your EHS-Dashboard™ Calendar. Corrective Actions support an Approval & Root Cause analysis workflow.  This feature distinguishes them from regular Calendar Items.
    • Examples: Incident Investigation CAPA, Inspection CAPA, etc.

  • REPORT: Forms classified as Reports are added to your Report Forms log. Reports are not required to have a due date and do not show up on your Calendar. You can have many different "types" of Reports such as:
    • Incident Report, Incident Investigation, Work Request, Ergonomic Assessment, etc.

  • RISK ASSESSMENT: Forms classified as Risk Assessments are added to your Report Forms log. Risk Assessments are not required to have a due date. Risk Assessments allow you to:
    • Identify hazards and risk factors that have the potential to cause harm (hazard identification).
    • Analyze and evaluate the risk associated with that hazard (risk analysis, and risk evaluation).
