If you have the appropriate rights, you can create new form templates and questionnaires. As part of this process, you specify the users and resources that can activate the form and complete it. You also specify the users and/or resources that are to receive the completed form.
The Form Configuration page shows the title and description of each form. It also indicates whether the form is configured and/or active.
The workflow for creating your form differs based on the
options you choose
in the Form Activation and Completed Form Delivery fields. The procedures below coincide with these options.

In these procedures, when you need to specify users and/or resources who are responsible for the form, you can use the search fields toward the top of the page to search by role, resource type, and/or user ID.
Typically, a form is completed by a user or a resource, not both. If you specify both, the system delivers it to both. This means the user
may receive duplicate forms—one directed to the user and a second to the user's resource.
