Multi-site providers can now create and manage standardized form templates across all program locations. Once a form template is shared with a location, school admins can customize it with site-specific details before sharing with families.
Create and share form templates with locations
Forms can be created and shared across your program locations from the Organization dashboard. Once you grant a location access to the template, this automatically populates the form in the local brightwheel accounts for your admins to build off of.
After a location gets access to a template, the local admin will receive an email notification with instructions on how to access it.

Hit Create new > Select the form type

Edit form templates
Changes made to a form template at the organization level will appear on templates already shared with local admins, but won't affect the forms they already created from the template.

Mange school access
Multi-site admins can select which locations can use the template.
If you remove access, this will prevent locations from creating new forms from it. Alternatively, multi-site admins can close a form template which revokes access to the template for all locations.
A form template can be made active again by sharing the template with locations.
Note: Forms that have already been created from this template will not be affected when you remove access.
