Sort forms into categories

In Weplanify, categories sort your forms: their icon, their sentence, who sees them and their order in the employees' Make a request screen.

In Weplanify, a category groups forms together (HR requests, Reports, Incidents…). It is a heading in Make a request and a filter in the forms list.

The Categories panel: each category with its icon, number of forms, who sees it, and the Move up, Move down, Edit, Delete arrows

Good to know

  • Categories marked Built in (Expense, Advance / Loan, Planning) keep their name and cannot be deleted.
  • Deleting a category deletes neither its forms nor their answers: they become uncategorised.
  • A form can narrow further who sees it, at the Sharing step (who can answer).
