Information technology has dominated every business to automate the operations and add to an overall value. The fundamental mode of data collection and communication between producers, partners, service providers, employees and customers has been the forms. These simple forms with a variety of fields have been so good so far to acquire data wealth and carry out business tasks. The journey towards a complete paperless administration with electronic forms has received tremendous acknowledgement and support by one and all. In fact, the organisations choosing automation with eForms or electronic forms software have already started reaping the benefits like instant mobility, reduced costs, errors and redundancy, faster response, quick communication, slicker processes and improved quality compliance.

The intuitive web-based eForms are suitable for the administrators with or without software proficiency and coding expertise. Thanks to the plugins that make this work easy yet much fruitful for the business-driven workflows! A plugin embeds a specific functionality into the eForm to achieve a comprehensive way of capturing information with easy and faster access. We have previously discussed the benefits of eforms approach to replace the inefficient old paperless system.

Amidst a diversity available plugins, today we shall discuss the top 3 of them that make eForms an ideal choice for a seamless data flow captured across the web, mobile, and portals-

Location Picker

The introduction of GPS (Global Positioning System) to track and calculate exact location was highly appreciated by commercial industries right from the 1990s. Today, location-tracking is one of the most sought after feature by the businesses involving their personnel venturing out for work. The reason to mention the importance of GPS here is to highlight the usability of location picker. Location picker plugin tops the chart when it comes to user appreciation.

Basically, location picker helps an end-user to send accurate position via eForms without any extra effort. Instead of having a text field to enter address details manually, the administrator can add location picker plugin in their eForm for the end-user customer or employees to select their current location. It is a win-win situation for both parties as the end-user is freed from erroneous typing or details and the back-end system can deliver the services or route the jobs to technicians with the exact location.

Like, iTouchVision’s electronic forms have the location picker plugin that is used by the customers to request a service, report problems as well as by the employees to register their schedule. Our eForms designed for public-sector applications allow citizens to select a location with accuracy using location picker integrated with LLPG address database. This bird’s eye view with the outcome of location picker helps to save time, labours and costs.

Multi-File Picker

While we are talking about digitising paper-based business process forms with the electronic medium, we cannot miss out on the file attachments.  Time has grown us from carrying bundles of files to complete the work and capture the critical information in a haywire manner. eForms software make the use of the file picker plugin in order to receive any external data from the end-user as an input to their system.

eForms are not just limited to have a number of text and numeric fields to capture basic details. A well-designed eForm extends the facility to add multiple attachments in the form of text documents, images, videos, audios, etc. This functionality is achieved by the use of file picker plugin. At times, it is required to actually capture information in user-desirable format.

A desk administrator can add the file picker in eForm and allow the user to send any extra or mandatory document through the form. This eliminates the burden of emailing or sending the documents separately. Moreover, these media files or text documents are stored in a standard format in the system for future reference. It provides a smooth way to simply select the attachment from their device using file picker and send it across to the organisation.

For example, file picker aids in sending an evidence of a problem, uploading identity documents, invoice, requesting a repair or maintenance with the image of damaged product. Thus, information is captured with multiple files, exchanged and stored in a proper and secure manner for subsequent timely actions.

Web Service Reference

The aim to provide a digital platform to the users is to streamline and centralise the business processes. eForms software should meet the purpose of the organisation to ease the working, data collection and support the user requirements in every sense. Web service reference plugin works as a bridge to combine multiple applications and exchange information.

Adding a web service reference plugin to the electronics forms enhances their usability as the user can submit data and get comprehensive results irrespective of the application at the back-end. This plugin enables communication and exchange with external platforms based on the input parameters configured by the company administrator. The retrieval of information becomes canny as the user enters the required certain information that is passed to the third-party application. It is then processed with automation and result is passed to the user screen as an outcome.

One of the main advantages of using the web service reference plugin is that it eliminates the need of the user going around different applications. For instance, to pay a bill, tax or register a claim or display a certain set of information against entered input, web service is called to the source for validation. iTouchVision’s eForms module is ranked as the most holistic platform to integrate a company’s software application with any other application to maintain the data flow and format in a secure way.
