Configuring an Update Engagement smart form

Smart forms are used to capture user data and can help streamline supplier worker management flows between Beeline Professional and the Supplier Network applications.

Smart forms are often associated with a single task such as updating an engagement record. As a Beeline Professional administrator, you can configure an Update Engagement smart form that can be used by suppliers in the Supplier Network app. You can create and modify the smart form to include additional fields or remove fields that are no longer required in your data-capturing flows.

Although you build Update Engagement smart forms in Professional, they are used for data collection tasks in the Supplier Network only. To support updating engagements in Professional, you must configure business processes that include smart forms as part of their data collection tasks.

Before you begin

  • You must have administrator access to Professional.

  • The Smart Forms Configuration panel includes an optional Text editor to build a smart form as an array of JSON objects. This method is for advanced configurations and requires a higher level of technical competence. If you plan to use that option, reach out to your Client Services representative.

Steps

To create an Update Engagement smart form, complete these steps.

  1. Log in to Professional.

  2. From the left navigation, go to Settings  Smart Forms.

  8. To add a new element, select an element in the UI panel. An + Add New Element button displays. Next, select + Add New Element and select the element you want to add from the list. The element you added is included after the element you selected.

  9. Optional: To rearrange elements, drag and drop them to the location you want in the UI editor.

  10. Turn on the Available to supplier toggle to make your smart form available in the Supplier Network app.

  11. Ensure that the Available in Professional toggle is turned off.

  12. Select Save and Publish to activate the form. A confirmation banner displays in the lower left.
