Completing Documentation Electronically

AppCentral allows applicants and staffing offices to exchange documentation over the Internet and avoid the use of hard copy documentation whenever possible.  There are document editing features available for use with the electronic completion and submission processes.  Begin this document completion process by selecting a Fill out & submit document from the list presented on the Home screen (Figure 9).

Completing the Electronic Document

One advantage to completing documentation electronically is the guidance AppCentral offers the applicant by highlighting required fields and identifying required attachments.   These features come to the applicant's attention immediately as the document selected in Figure 9 is opened within AppCentral (Figure 10):

 

1.A red banner above the document tells the user which document pages contain fields which must be filled for the document to be submitted to the staffing office and which attachments the applicant must make to the document if any.

 

2.Fields which require input are outlined in red while they are empty.  Once these fields have been filled, the red outline is removed from the field.
