What is an Organization? An "Organization" within the Capptions Direct app can be viewed in many ways depending on the internal structure of the organization you work for. An Organization, therefore, can be a project, a region you are a part of, or a department you fall under. 

What is a Workflow? A Workflow is your internal organization's processes and tasks reproduced on the Capptions Direct app. The Workflow, therefore, occurs in a particular order of which you are a part. 

 

Before completing a "Workflow" on the Capptions Direct app, you must ensure that your account is set up and that you are a member of an "Organization".

What is a Task? A Task is an activity included in a workflow. An activity can only be made available once a workflow has been started by either yourself or another user. Types of activities found in the "Tasks" tab can be completing a form, reviewing a form, or reviewing a report.

     Click "Complete task" to open the form that you want to fill in and submit.

Step 6: Complete the form and Submit. 


Now that you have easily completed an activity, a report may be generated and sent to your email address. If you do not receive a report directly, check your spam folder. 



 

No report generated? Do not worry!  Each workflow created will have unique processes and activities depending on your organization's processes. It is possible that multiple users need to complete the same workflow. In this case, a report will only be generated after all users have completed their tasks within a workflow. Secondly, you may be unable to view the reports because of your job role.

 

And that's how easy it is!
