Who is this article for?Users who want to learn to navigate the InForm features.
No elevated permissions are required.
Lucidity Software's InForm module offers a range of features accessible through its navigation system. The user experience is tailored to individual permissions and access levels, ensuring that each user sees menu and tab options relevant to their role while maintaining a consistent navigation structure across most pages.
1. Navigation

- Edit: Edit individual records.
- Copy: Copy individual records when creating a new record which has similar details.
- Actions: Drop down options to email, print, archive or delete records.
2. Tabs
As with all Lucidity Software Modules, Lucidity InForm uses a series of tabs for basic navigation which are based on assigned permissions. Details on all these options are outlined in this user guide.
- Form Records: Create a new form record, assign a Form to an end-user and view forms and form groups.
- Actions: View, edit and close actions assigned from within Lucidity Software.
- Form Admin: Build new forms, publish, edit or delete existing forms.
- Dashboard: provides at-a-glance views that organises and presents information in a way that is easy to read and showing a graphical presentation of the current status.
- Settings: Add new form groups and edit or delete existing form groups.

End-users can complete forms at any time. They may also have forms they are required to complete assigned to them by their manager or an administrator.
All users can access the forms they are required to complete several ways throughout Lucidity Software. These are outlined in the table below. In all cases, once the required form is opened, the processes of completing it is the same.
