Once a form has been uploaded, it needs to be edited so that the platform can interpret it properly.
This step is essential to the record creation process because it ensures that the form can be used and will reduce errors in the final training record.
To learn more about editing a form, review the following information.
- Description Tab
The description tab displays all the form details entered when the form was initially uploaded. - Input Fields Tab
The Input Fields tabs allows you to fill in the blanks of a form. - EDIT Button
Clicking on the EDIT button allows you to edit the form’s name, revision number and description. It also allows you to create and edit the input fields. - Uploaded Form
Once you’ve clicked the Input Fields tab, you’ll be able to see the uploaded form. - Input Field Types
There are three available Input Field types: General Information (pink), Grading Scheme and Session information (blue) and Grading Tasks (green).
General information refers to the trainee’s identification information, Grading Scheme and Session Information refers to details pertaining to the session. Grading Tasks refers solely to the tasks that will be graded.
