πŸ“… Creating a New Submission

Storecall makes it easy for your team to capture structured data in the field or during daily workflows using submissions. This guide walks you through how to create a new submission using an Audit-type template.


πŸ”’ What is a Submission?

A submission is a record of a checklist, workflow, or form completed by a user against a specific template. In Storecall, you use submissions to record audits, log operational issues, or initiate approval workflows.

There are 3 types of templates:

  • Audits: e.g., Regional store visits, daily checklists

  • Logs: e.g., Fault reports, maintenance issues

  • Approvals: e.g., Leave requests, discount requests

⚠️ Note: Only audit and log submissions are linked to a specific location. Approvals are not location-based.


πŸ“„ Starting a New Submission

  1. Navigate to: Submissions > New Submission

  2. You can:

    • Select a template from your favourite templates, or

    • Use the dropdown to select from all available templates

  3. For this example, choose an Audit-type template like "Regional Store Visit"

  4. You will be prompted to select a location

  5. Click Start Submission to begin

Once inside the submission form:

Header Cards

  • Location: The selected location the submission applies to

Answering Questions
