Meetings

Meeting minutes is an area where people have stronger preferences. Feel free to import our template or just make your own, but here’s how they work.

Create Meeting Specific Templates

Each meeting will needs its own template (OAC, MEP, SUB etc.) At the start of the project import the company template, duplicate it, and then customize it for your needs. OR use one of the company-level versions. Either way be sure to update permissions to that template is you do not want everyone in the directory to see it.

Taking Notes

Meetings break down into Topics as the parents and Items as the children. Responsibility and due date can be assigned in each item. The person assigned will get notified and have a To Do item added to their list. That To Do item can be closed on their side, but will not come off the minutes until the item is closed.

Distribute

Like other forms, simply Publish and then Distribute to share minutes. An email will be sent with a link to a pdf export. Learn more about Distributing a form.

Create Next Meeting

After your the meeting has been Published (you will see it in the list of forms), the next step is to select Create New. That will generate a new form with the next sequential number, Notes ready for update, etc. The meeting Title and Attendees will carry forward to the next meeting but can be updated.

Good to Know:

• Prior to your first meeting, enter all the topics ahead of time to set the agenda.

• Closed items will stay for one more meeting after they are closed and then drop off past notes.

• The Meetings tool is mobile too!
