How To > Build effective forms
Structure intake
Tallyfy connects forms directly to later workflow steps, turning separate form submissions into the first step of a structured, trackable process. You’ll get full visibility and accountability from submission to completion.
Tallyfy connects intake forms directly to later steps by:
- Placing kick-off forms at the start of process templates.
- Automatically starting defined workflows when a form is submitted.
- Tracking progress through all following steps.
- Making the entire process visible to relevant people.
- Including external participants using guest access.
As work intake software ↗, Tallyfy ensures all incoming requests are captured, routed, and tracked from start to finish.
With standalone forms, visibility stops after submission. Tallyfy provides ongoing status tracking for everyone involved - both internal and external - so there’s no need for manual follow-ups about submission status.
Information collected in kick-off forms stays available throughout the process:
- Form field data flows automatically to later steps.
- Variables can pull form field values into later steps.
- Webhooks can send form data to other systems.
- All submitted info remains accessible to authorized people.
Tallyfy includes validation features to help ensure real submissions:
- Email verification for external guests.
- Secure access control through verified email links.
- Options for public access forms when needed.
You can migrate existing forms - whether they’re web forms, Word/Excel/PDF docs, or paper forms - into Tallyfy. Conversion tools are available to help with the migration.
