You may have chosen to include design information, or made other decisions during your configuration that change the final result slightly, but for the most part, your process should look similar to the one above.

  2. Find your process in the list and click the process name.  The Process Details screen will display.

    Now, let's add a new Phase to your process for capturing personnel information.  First, we'll change the name of the default phase to something that's a little more descriptive.

  3. Click Edit on the header row of the Default Phase.  The Edit Process Phase screen will open.

  4. Change the phase name from "Default Phase" to "Form Inspection" or something that makes sense to you. 

  5. Click Save.  The Process Details screen will be updated with the new phase name.

    Now, let's add a new phase for capturing personnel information.

    101-15_Prepour Checklist_New Phase

  6. Click New Phase.  The Create New Process Phase screen will display.

  7. Enter "Personnel Info" or a phase name that makes sense to you.

  8. Click Save.  The Process Details screen will be displayed with your new, empty phase at the bottom of the list.  Scroll down to find it if you need to.

  9. On the title bar of your new phase, click New Step.  The Create New Step screen will appear.  

    101-15_Prepour Checklist_New Sig Step

  10. Select Capture Signature.

  11. Click Next.  The Create New Capture Signature Step screen will appear.

    101-15_Prepour Checklist_Signature Details

  12. Enter a Name for this signature step (example:  Inspector's Signature).  

  13. Enter an optional Description (example:  Signature or Initials of Inspector completing the Pre Pour Checklist).

  14. Enter a Signature Name.  This information will be used as the filename associated with each signature image.  Be sure to use a name that is descriptive enough that it won't be reused.  

    For example, using a signature name like "Inspector Signature" will work if you will not be capturing the inspector's signature in a different process, like the post pour.  If you will be capturing the inspector's signature, then "Inspector Signature" is not unique enough.  You'll need to enter something like "Pre Pour Inspector Signature."  Then when you create a step to capture the inspectors signature in the post pour process, you can enter a signature name like "Post Pour Inspector Signature."

  15. Click Save. The Process Details screen is displayed with your new phase and capture signature step at the bottom of the list.

    101-15_Prepour Checklist_Personnel Info Phase

    Next, let's move the "QC Inspector" step from the end of the "Form Inspection" phase down to the new "Personnel Info" phase.  

    101-15_Prepour Checklist_Reorder

  16. On the Phases and Steps header bard, click Reorder. The Reorder Steps screen will display.

  17. Scroll down and click on the QC Supervisor step so that only that step is highlighted.

  18. Click the center Down Arrow on the right to move the "QC Supervisor" step down into the "Personnel Info" phase.

    Note that the motion arrows on the right work like most arrow functions.  

    101-15_Reorder Buttons_Center UpMoves the highlighted step(s) up one place
    101-15_Reorder Buttons_End UpMoves the highlighted step(s) to the top
    101-15_Reorder Buttons_Center DownMoves the highlighted step(s) down one place
    101-15_Reorder Buttons_End DownMoves the highlighted step(s) to the bottom


    Your "QC Supervisor step should now be the first step in the "Personnel Info" phase.

  19. Click Save.

    That's it!  Your Pre Pour process is complete.
