A checklist is an online form, which contains a series of questions that you require a client to answer.  When a Client answers and submits a Checklist, the submitted information is stored in the Client Folder in Nimbus as a PDF with any attached files.  Checklists contain:

  • questions;

  • question responses;

  • the ability to add text in response to questions; and

  • the ability to upload files associated with particular questions.

Checklists are created by typing the appropriate commands into the Webform Tab of an Email Job.  This can be done on a Webform template / or on the fly using an Email Job.
