Modernise Logbooks (and rename them!)

  • Rename them Forms as Logbook sounds outdated.

  • Enable customisation of the Logbook screen to make it look more aesthetically pleasing than a basic form.

  • More format options.

  • Enable Logbooks to include customisable documents, for example, creating a New Starter Form which can be sent as part of the onboarding process and can be self completed by candidate.

    Agreed, we like using logbooks but the menu to access them and they way they are laid out is not great. For example if the user does not have a record in the first logbook of the menu then the screen states 'No logbook screen found' which makes for queries to HR as they give up looking for the logbook they need to access or worry that they have gone wrong.

    And a 'Add' button rather than the + sign. Amount of times I get asked 'I selected the logbook but it won't open'

    Completely agree! It would work so much better if the form creation worked similar to widgets, with drag and drop options. The current version is very clunky and the view of it is terrible.
