Introducing a handy new feature on Pandaform:  Assignees!  This new feature will enable you to assign any submission to your coworkers for further actions!

I enjoyed using Pandaform as a one-stop service for our event registration platform.  However, when it comes to some of our major conferences with rather considerable numbers of attendees, there are usually tasks that need to be done by more than one staff member, and some tasks are specific to one certain staff member.  This, to me, has been an issue for a long time.

With this new feature, you can now simply invite coworkers to your form, and then assign an entry to one or more of them to proceed to the next step of actions.  This can be done right on the entry page with one click!  Once an assignee completes a task, they can then assign another new task to others based on what is needed.  You can take further advantage of this new feature by setting up the Process function.  With this advanced function activated, once an assignee completes a task, the entry will be automatically passed to the next assignee for further action.

Let’s take a look:

Simply go to form’s submissions and add assignees on the right side panel.

All submissions assigned to you will appear on the this tab.

[Advanced] Automate assigning by setting up the Process function under the Settings tab. 

Inspired yet?  Experiment on your own forms. Head over to Form  → Any Entry → Assignees and start to assign tasks, or go to Form Setting → Process  to automate your own assigning process as you want.

Making a sale is the lifeblood of every business. In fact, the sales process is one of the most important things to manage if you are serious about running a successful business. This entails activities such as looking for potential clients, qualifying these leads, making contact with the prospects, and negotiating for a sale.

Without a system for sales lead tracking, this would be a very difficult process to follow. Smart business owners use sales lead tracking software to organize the system. PandaForm is a possible tool that you could use for this.

First of all, you need to create your form. Here I placed the form title: Customer Order Form.

Next, add your fields. Choose the ones that are necessary to your order form such as Name and Email. You can also create an Address field or a Company Name field by editing the label of the Single Line Field. For other details that you might want to include about customers and their order, you could use the Paragraph Text for additional data input.

With the Layout Elements feature in the Field section of PandaForm, you could choose to place a Section Break on your sales order form. You could then title it Order Details, or Order Information. Under this section break is where you could input data such as the name of the product, the quantity of the order, and then price.

Step #2: Setting The Order Status In PandaForm

It is quite easy to set the statuses you will need to keep track of your orders through PandaForm’s Settings feature. Just go to Settings at the upper right of the form and go ahead and click it. This will take you to the page where you can choose from among these functions: General, Notification, Payment, User Permission, and Process. Go to Process and then click On.

Once this feature is turned on, you can input the statuses you need to track your orders. Suggestions for order form statuses are the following:

• new order,
• received,
• processed,

Using PandaForm for event registration is easy. Here’s how:

First, you open PandaForm then click on Forms at the upper left side of the screen. This is what you will see:

To start with, you can type in your own Form name to replace “New Form 12.” Then there are a variety of fields to choose from on the right hand side of the screen. You can create and edit your form from here.

Basic Information

When you click on “Add Field,” the app will give you choices for editing the Basic Field, the Layout Elements, and the Advanced Field. Let’s start with the Basic Field for creating your Event Registration form.

Under Basic Field, you can choose from among a variety of fields: Single Line, Number, Name, Email, Paragraph Text, Checkbox, Drop Down Box, and Radio Button. All of these are useful for creating your online form. For instance:

In the Add Field tab, choose the Single Line field. Then go to the Field Settings tab. The form builder opens up to a window where you type in your preferred Label, Help Text, Field Size, and Default.

Here, I already placed my form name: Workshop Event Registration. The single line label has also been changed to Organization, which prompts the registrant to type in the organization they belong to.

You can change the field size to small, medium, or large. You can make this a required field. You can make it restricted so only the admin can access. You can do all these just by checking a box on the PandaForm app.

You can then move on to add another field for the next line in your form.

Workshops and Giveaways

Aside from getting the basic information that you will need from you registrants, PandaForm makes it easier to plan events with multiple talks or sessions. The participants can actually select the talks/sessions they want to attend in advance. You can also create a field for T-shirt size and other giveaway options. The process is basically the same when creating fields in PandaForm.

Settings

After creating your event registration form, PandaForm gives you the option to send notification emails, collect payments, send a confirmation message, limit the submissions, set a deadline, and use CAPTCHA on your forms. You can access all these under the Settings tab at the upper right side of the PandaForm screen. It is right beside the Edit Form tab.

Sending notifications to registrants

Here is what the Notification screen looks like, where you have the option to send confirmation emails:

Sending Files

You can use the Files option to collect photos or other files for quick creation and printing of ID cards for the event. In the Edit Form tab, click on Add Field. Scroll down to Advance Field. Choose File Field. Click and edit with Field Settings.

Collection of registration fees

And this is how you use PandaForm for convenient payment collection of registration fees:

At the Settings tab, choose the Payment option. You can select a merchant, choose your currency, assign prices, and fix other details of your event registration payment. It’s all there on the PandaForm app, with ready fields for you to fill up.

All you have to do next is click on Save and you’re ready to manage a successful event. You could then share or publish the event registration form you have created with the help of PandaForm.
