About Safety Forms

This screen allows you to create your Group and Forms for use in Safety.

Adding a Group

Forms are categorized by Groups. Forms can only be associated with one Group. To add a Group, choose the Add Group button above the Groups grid. Enter the Group name and select save. You will need to add at least one Group to use the Safety Module.

MetaFeild DIY Library for Safety Form Templates

Several template forms are available to you under the Group name Predefined Form Templates (Copy Forms for Use). To use these templates as a starting point for form creation, you will need to first copy the form. Once the form is copied, you may customize the copied form to customize it according to your unique business needs.

Adding a New Form

To add a Form, first you must select the appropriate Group to which the From will be assigned. Choose the Group and select the Add Form button. Enter the Form name and choose save.

When the form is added, three fields will default into your Form: Safety Record Number, Employee and Safety Date. These fields are required by the system and you will not be able to remove them. You can change the field label that will be presented to your users or various other attributes of these fields. You may also choose to not add these default fields to the Report.

Safety Record Number Default Setting

When Safety Record Number defaults on a Form, it is automatically configured to assign a new Safety Record Number that is unique per form and project.

You can change this default setting so numbers are assigned Unique By Form, Unique By Project and Form, Unique by System, or Unique per Project. You also may remove this setting, which will allow the user the option of adding the Safety Record Number manually.
