Adding a New Project

To fill out a form or sign a document on the mobile app, employees will need to select a project.

Projects are used to separate completed forms and signed documents into different groups. Another way to think of a project is like a folder in a filing cabinet. If you were to file this form (or signed document) away, what folder would it go in?

Assigning a project to a form allows you to run reports in the 1Life Software to see how different projects/teams/divisions are filling out forms (or if they are not!)

Some ideas on how to name your projects are:

1. Area of a Plant/Building – welding, front office, shipping, etc.
2. Locations of projects – 412 Portage Ave, 280 Stradbrook, etc.
3. Groups of employees – residential installers, commercial installers, etc. (this can be good if you have multiple short projects each day)
4. Job ID/# – internal job number that your company uses to track work.
5. Equipment Type – Forklift #1, Plate #ABC123
