Forms

The Divinity Forms site is used for various submission and approval processes at the University. This section provides documentation on the use of the Forms site itself.

Forms are only available to logged in users. In order for a new person to be able to log in and fill out a form, an authorised person must fill out the Add New Staff + Appointment form to have them added to the system. This ensures that relevant information is captured for reporting and college collection and systems integration processes.

1 - Forms overview

1. Form selection

Select the relevant form from the list, or by inputting a search term in the search bar. Note that your interface may differ slightly to that pictured, subject to different permissions or site developments.

2. Fill out the form.

Whenever you move past a field or click a button, those fields that are mandatory will be checked and a message displayed if they are empty.

At any time you may save the form for later completion with the “Save for later” button. Saving the form will preserve your content for later editing. You will be prompted to load this saved copy whenever you next open the same form.

Clicking “Close” will prompt you to save a draft (the default). Unticking the box will enable you to close the form and discard any information entered.

If you need to show the filled out form to another person, you can print the form (to paper or PDF)

The ‘My CV’ link in the menu will provide a CV-like view of your information which is available to be viewed alongside your submission and printed.

2 - Workflow and review process

1. Submission notification

Once a form has been submitted, an email notification will be issued to the person who is first in the workflow process that is associated with the form. That email will include a link to review the form (the first link highlighted in the image below). This is link is associated with the person and role of the recipient and should not be forwarded to anyone else. A read-only share link is also included in the email, and in the review process. This share link can be copied and circulated to others, where appropriate, for consideration.

2. Submission review

After clicking on the ‘Click here to review the form’ link you will see displayed a four part form.

Submission review presentation

  • The first section shows an overview of the form submitted.
  • You can proceed through the review process steps with the “next step” button. You may return to previous steps by selecting “previous step”. You may print the whole form at any time by selecting the “print form” button.
  • The second section shows the information submitted in the form
  • The third section shows the workflow history of this form. It includes each step that the form has been through.

3. Your decision

The last step is for you to select your decision, and provide any internal notes.

Submission review approval

  • Select the “Approve” button to approve the application. This will then require you to register the date that the decision was made by the relevant committee.
  • The “Query” button will return the application to the submitter for further development. This action will then require you to provide feedback which will be sent to the applicant.
  • The “Deny” button will deny the application.

Once you have selected your decision and filled out the necessary information, use the “Confirm Approved”/“Confirm Queried”/“Confirm Denied” button to complete your review.

If approved, the review process (step 4 to 6) will repeat until the final reviewer completes their review.

The applicant will not receive an automatic notification of the result of their application and must be contacted manually.

Staff forms are submitted directly by the applicant. Authority forms are submitted on behalf of an applicant by an authorised submitter.
