Dynamic Forms

Dynamic Forms is an online form management system powered by NextGen that allows the online submission of information cutting out the need for paper submissions. Some forms will become available for students, faculty, and staff to complete and sign electronically. Whether it's converting a paper-based form into a paperless form to avoid handling paper, creating a multi-participant form that allows participants to give their approval from anywhere in the world, or simply building a form that is accessible online so that participants don’t need to go to a physical location to pick up/submit a paper-based form, Dynamic Forms is intended to benefit all users.

FAQs

Where do I access new forms?

Users can find forms housed on their normal page. A new link will be placed as forms are migrated and new forms are created. There is no need to login to find a form – this is for administrators to process items.

Why am I being asked to log in?

You may find that some forms may require a login. This is a security measure to ensure the proper person is signing and/or accessing the provided form information. Please use your CanesNet credentials to sign in as needed. If presented with MFA, please verify that it matches your normal MFA process, and log in. This will only occur when using new devices or if you have cleared your browser history, cookies, etc.

I submitted/signed a form. Where is it?

Multi-signature forms waiting for additional signatures are located under “Forms Awaiting Other Signatures.” Based on the type of form you’ve submitted, it will route to the next participant until all participants have signed accordingly.

I received an email to sign a portion of a form. How do I know if this is legit?

Please do not reply to these emails.
