Daily report forms are incredibly important when it comes to monitoring your employees’ daily progress and the challenges they encounter while working. At this stage, it is pretty crucial to ask correct questions and collect the relevant information that will help your future implementation of new practices. Some of the most common questions that you should ask are: 

• The full name of the employee
• The department where the employee works 
• Arrival and departure time 
• Tasks that are completed within that particular day
• Challenges faced if there are any 
• Additional fields for your employees to express their day in their own words

The last step before distributing your daily report form and collecting responses is your general form settings. You should make sure that you have adjusted them in the correct way that you would like them to be. On your form’s general settings, you have plenty of cool options to make your form as functional as possible, and some of these are: 

• Notifications settings such as email notifications, mobile notifications, submitter notifications, etc.
• Publish & unpublish day settings for limited-time forms
• Location settings for more accurate data collection 
• Integrations settings for connecting your forms with third-party applications
• Privacy settings for your security
• Quota settings for limited-time response collection attempts
• Direct message settings for your respondents to reach out to you directly via different platforms

Once you get done with your daily report form and share it with your employees and collect their reports each day, you can monitor all the responses that you got through your form’s Results section. If your questions were suitable for statistical purposes, you could see the statistical details on the related tab. When you switch to “responses,” you can see each submission individually. You can also download these reports in different file formats, such as CSV, XLS, etc. Some of the other benefits of forms.app’s Results page is:

• Different view layouts, such as mailbox and table
• Trash is where you can restore your deleted responses
• Ability to download each response in PDF format individually
• Adding special notes for yourself on each response 
• Share your responses with different privacy settings

As forms.app’s customization options are highly flexible; you can put this daily report form template into any shape you’d like to. For example, you can use it as an incident report form, request form, daily sales report form, progress report form, or anything else you can imagine!
