Intake Form

AgencyHandy provides the capability to set up intake forms, which allow users to gather detailed information about the requirements for each order. Intake forms serve as a structured way to collect essential data from clients, ensuring clarity and completeness in project specifications.

Why It's Needed:

Intake forms are essential for gathering comprehensive client information, ensuring that all project requirements are clearly defined and understood. By using intake forms, agencies can streamline communication, minimize misunderstandings, and deliver better client results.

Pre-Condition to use the feature:

To set up an intake form in AgencyHandy, users must have appropriate permissions to access and modify order settings. Additionally, users should clearly understand the information they need to collect from clients for each order.

Steps to Set Up Intake Form:

In AgencyHandy, users have two options for creating an intake form. One is to create it after creating a service, while the other is from the "Form Sections" feature. This flexibility allows users to design intake forms tailored to their specific needs and preferences.
