Another important benefit of the BP Logix product is its ease of use and deployment. eForms is an intuitive, web-based application. By presenting users with familiar forms, the need for costly training is eliminated. eForms enables users to pre-populate an eForm, make changes in an isolated section of the form, automatically kick-off the review and approval cycle, instantaneously track and audit all tasks involved and execute the change Context- sensitive forms, embedded help and form segment isolation add to the simplicity, acceptance and deployment of eForms For more information on the complete eForms lifecycle, read our eForms white paper or view the most frequently asked questions about eForms.

Key Benefits of eForms

• Reduce Costly Paper Handling and Manual Routing. Paper-based forms are costly to print, store, distribute, mail, and process. Automation of form processing ensures there is no disconnect between a form and the business process required for that form.

• Tracking, Auditing, and Process Awareness. Instant access to current and prior activity, including completed forms and processes, ensures that authorized users have immediate access to the information they need.. Having visibility into a form's complete lifecycle reduces cost, improves quality, and ensures access to vital business information.

• Accelerate the Delivery of Form-Based Information. The BP Logix workflow engine automatically routes completed forms to appropriate users for review/approval. The routing provides automated email notifications and personalized task lists for users who must review or approve a form.

• Reduce Errors and Improve Accuracy. Pre-populating form fields from external sources and form segment isolation enable users to input only the data required of them. This results in fewer areas to complete, reducing errors and ensuring greater accuracy.

• Expedite Collection of Quality Information. Presenting users with eForms that appear similar to their paper-based predecessor eases the transition to the form completion process and improves the quality of information collected. Integrated form help, field pre-population and instant validation improve the end user experience and reduce expensive support calls.
